Modified Background Music Script with added overlays!
-
@war3zlod3r
I wrote a script that gets everything all set up for ya!
https://github.com/madmodder123/retropie_music_overlay/blob/master/BGM_Install.sh
Just download that, make it executable and then run it and it should work just fine, I just tested it on a fresh install :) -
I updated the main post with the script and more instructions :)
-
I updated the script so it makes a menu item that lets you instantly enable/disable the BGM :)
-
Thanks a lot, all is perfect for me now :D
-
any way to music change in selection of plataforms?
-
@lokize What do you mean?
-
@madmodder123 for example: when i select snes in main menu of plataforms play a super mario sound...
-
@lokize I don't think you can do that in EmulationStation, I think it is a feature in Attract Mode though
-
@madmodder123 in recalbox i using this feature with emulation Station, but i prefer Retropie
-
@madmodder123 please can share an install guide as I've not been able to install the script. When I tried the run command it failed for me.
-
@lokize Out of curiosity, why do you prefer RetroPie over Recalbox ?
-
@mitu Recalbox consume ALL memory of my Rpi3 B And left only 10% of ram, i try fresh install but not solve, Retropie consume 20% of ram running games...

@gleam2003 You can Share this script?
-
problem i have is the: /usr/local/bin/pngview procces issue and
(sudo python /home/pi/BGM.py) & is not working for me on reboot.
help would be appreciated, before i sack this off.

@legacy said in Modified Background Music Script with added overlays!:
sudo python /home/pi/BGM.py
try "sudo python /home/pi/BGM.py" in the command line and tell me if it works.
if not try running "sudo bash BGM_Install.sh" when installing the script.
Please post the console output of any failures/issues, it makes things much easier :) -
sudo python works, but i still get same result no music unless i turn toggle switch on then off.
i get a pngview process error, when launching a game and since installing the script a gamelist.xml error on startup
-
Please post your /etc/rc.local file.
Also the gamelist.xml issue sounds unrelated to this script -
The gamelist issue happens every time I install the script. I have a backup image, which I have just restored and is working fine. I have tried this about 6 times now and I have decided to sack it off.
I managed to sort the gamelist issue by copying the file back.
My RC local file is also fine. I think there maybe a problem with my build as I have stripped it back.
Thanks for your time. I may come back to this music mod later down the line

@madmodder123 Wow this script is great!! I've got it running with over 20 songs and it does a great job of randomizing everything. I was wondering if there is a way to hide the text that shows on the left side when you launch or quit a rom. This text states that the music is stopping or starting back up. Thanks again for doing this!

@legacy @MochaJoesFavor
I fixed the gamelist issue and the console output issue guys :)
Just took the time to make the script smarter and then tried it out on a fresh install :D
Just make sure you run the script as root ("sudo ./BGM_Install.sh")
Let me know if you find any more issues!
