How To Add Background MUSIC In Just 5 Commands!

EDIT
I fixed it, the runcommand-onstart.sh was somehow missing and then when I recreated it, I accidently used Windows EOL. So I did chmod +x and change to unix EOL. Works again :)

Hey guys,
I have the problem that the music wont stop anymore when starting a game.
I also recognized that I only had the runcommand-onstart.sh.orig but the runcommand-onstart.sh was misssing in /opt/retropie/configs/all/.
So I created it again. But how and where is the runcommand-onstart.sh called? So maybe there lies the problem.

Anyway thanks in advance :)

I had setup this earlier
Now I want to remove this , how do I ?

@vXDclutch it looks like you're meant to run the script and select "(U)ndo changes". This will attempt to restore the original autostart & runcommand scripts, the original retropiemenu entries, and remove the music scriptfiles and directories.

I’ve just installed this and it’s working great. One question I have is, is it possible to control the volume of this?

I’ve put in an mp3 of ambient arcade sounds, and it’s very loud compared to my actual game.

I’d like to drop the background volume, and boost the in game volume if possible?

@StuMcBill probably not for this one. I know others allow you too.

I didn't like that lack of abilitys in this one. So I stopped using it.

Could you point me in the direction of ones that have the ability?

My first post has a list of all the different ones that work

Is the one that I have used and it has good options. I believe volume is one of them.
