I did this but it won't run. My .sh file is in /home/pi/

pi@retropie:~ $ chmod a+x /home/pi/esdowngrade.sh
pi@retropie:~ $ /home/pi/esdowngrade.sh
/usr/bin/env: ‘bash\r’: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/env: use -[v]S to pass options in shebang lines

or


pi@retropie:~ $ sh /home/pi/esdowngrade.sh
: not founddowngrade.sh: 2:
: not founddowngrade.sh: 5:
/home/pi/esdowngrade.sh: 6: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Not sure, something wrong with the 1st line, maybe strange character in the copy/paste?...

I added vlc-downgrade script to GIT for the time being, so you can try this:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RapidEdwin08/RetroPie-Setup/master/vlc-downgrade.sh -P ~/
chmod 755 ~/vlc-downgrade.sh
~/vlc-downgrade.sh

A file newline issue sneaked in (Windows \r\n, Linux \n). Most likely happened by transferring the script to the Pi.

To be on the safe side next time: dos2unix <scriptfile> (sudo apt install dos2unix) is your friend.

I detected another issue, when PowerSaving is set to INSTANT ...

Simply: Don't! Do not set Power Saver Mode to INSTANT in Main Menu -> Other Settings to instant when you have VideoGamelists or use the Random VIdeo Screensaver. It will make your videos hang as I outlined in my cited post.
