      You crazy Brits with your kooky keyboards and Spotted Dick. Actually, you'll have to forgive me. The only knowledge I have of the region comes from 'King Ralph'.

        I'm actually from the US. xD Mine just isn't set to be US.

        When I try this, it doesn't save. Mine has an extra step I don't see in your video about asking what my Model of Keyboard is. It's a Logitech Wireless Keyboard. So i'm running through most the logitech options now.

        EDIT:
        Keyboard is working properly. Had to do a restart. Going to try to add the script in manually now.

          @Exmix keyboard type doesn't really matter. Default 105 keyboard works fine.

            Yeah I got it now. :P

            Update:
            So I manually added Moonlight.sh to the /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/ directory.
            I try to run it, it says:
            sh: 1: /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/Moonlight.sh: Permission denied

            SO I try to do a:
            chmod +x /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/Moonlight.sh

            It tells me:
            chmod: changing permissions of /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/Moonlight.sh : Operation not permitted

                  Q-Bert couldn't have said it better. I'm glad to see this resolved. A while back, I was helping someone out with a similar issue for launching DOOM wads from ES and I believe this might have been the same problem. I'll have to track that post down & point it back here for reference.

                  God save the Queen.
