Gamestarter: Retrogaming add-ons (RPi/Generic)

    I am trying to get this to work on my NUC that I have Libreelec installed on.

    I can install the add-ons from the repo but I have some issues.

    - In the settings menu of RA I do not have the options to select RPi or Generic.

    - I cannot figure out how to download AEL Assets using the RA's addon settings and when I go to I/O category/launcher configuration... I do not have ael-assts

    I can get Emulationstation to open and load a few roms but I have no emulator to run them wiht.

    I think best way is to install assets one at a time...just get the ones for your type of roms...you don't really need all package..you can download AEL assets from here

    I put the tar file in the "update" folder, correct? Last time I added a tar file to the update folder it broke the system and I had to do a fresh install.

    No...just extract and place somewhere on your Nuc...then go to I/O category/launcher configuration and browse to that folder and install your prefered emulator launchers

    ok

    Got emulation station up with a rom. seems to work but there is sound. I don't really understand the config file. I have the clicks when I am in Kodi

    Sound settings you have to set them up from RA as roms launched from ES are still run by RA..it's all in RO audio settings

    Hello,

    Since I was never able to solve my artwork problem in retroarch, I finally installed emulationstation.

    I use universal XML scraper for scrape my roms and it works like a charm.

    I just had a little problem with the gameboy color roms. This must be in the gbc roms directory.

    After this success, i wanted to install new theme like switch theme or snes mini theme. But it does not work.

    If I understood correctly, retropie uses a fork of emulationstation.

    So this is my question : is there a chance that you are updating the version of emulationstation by the version used by retropie ?

    Thank you for your future answer

    I tried installing this on my minix u9-h using the latest libreelec wrxtasy build, (the one with chroma settings)

    the plugins all seem to install fine, when i launch them they ask to quit kodi and launch, i hit yes and they show splash screen then end up back at the main menu so im unable to use these at all.

    any ideas?
