@willindiana You can edit retroarch.cfg and set the driver. May I suggest you try also the lr-beetle-psx core ? It has Vulkan support and since you're on x86 it can be installed from the optional packages section.

You could also just add them to the gamelist entries for each game?

@herb_fargus Possibly. But the display settings are correct and the aspect ratio of the splash video matches the vertical screen exactly.

Does anyone have any recommendations on the best two player team games? - The wife is loving Tumblepop - has completed it three times now... but I got bored quickly...

In case anyone in this thread is interested, I just released v2.1.0 of RetroPie Convert Videos.

I've created post on how to convert these vids in Windows:

Do you have any video scraped for your games ? That's the source for the screensavers - so you should get those using the Steven Selph's scraper - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Scraper/.
Then, you can look in the video posted by @retroprogrammer - skip the whole updating and re-installing - to see how it's configured in EmulationStation.

also, to ensure that none of my changes have affected this, i just tried a default, no rom, freshly downloaded install. still the exact same results.

@trailjacker I personally don't know a lot about scrapers. I usually use sselph's scraper and then manually add videos on my own, though I'm using an old version of the scraper.

Sorry I'm not more helpful here - maybe a separate thread with that particular question may help?

On the https://screenscraper.fr site, there's a list titled "Server" in the upper right of the page. There, you can see the current CPU workload in percent. If the load gets too high, the green checkmarks will go red to show that these users will be blocked from scraping until the load goes down. Non-registered users will be blocked first, then registered, then (maybe) contributors.

So, I guess registering will get you blocked later. But I'm not registered there so I can't tell you for sure.

@valhalla_pi I couldn't find it at first but I found the lines were there in carbon.xml, not in theme.xml.
Like you said, I only had to change the showSnapshotDelay into true and add the extra delay line. Works!

Thank you.

I'm wondering if I might have better luck with v16 of Kodi. Is there a way to downgrade?

@mitu Thanks for your reply! I will take a look at this and perhaps give it a go. Many thanks

Another issue, after upgrading from 4.2 to 4.3 and saving a core wide shader preset when you quit the ROM and open it again or another rom from the same core the preset is not applied (at least is saved) and you need to apply it, also in the update I lost my RetroAchievements settings

@detron thanks! You can change when the caption shows - during the entire clip or just beginning and end - in the video screensaver options menu.

You can also launch it directly by pressing start while the clip is showing ;)

@cyperghost It's good that it's getting this attention, and with the new screenshot-based screensaver, it might be that someone develops that same approach for videos. I believe that'd be the right approach, so fingers crossed :)
