Sx05RE v1.8.6 Emulationstation+Lakka+Kodi

Quote from niabi

The FBA romset should be the one for the latest FBA (not MAME).

if you can't find the themes folder on samba you could try the "root" folder then go to the emulatiostation and theme folder from there, I will check it for the next release.

Thanks for your fast response!

I ve found the folder .emulationstation, the problem was I have deactivated the show hiden file option, I allready change the theme!

what pack of roms do you recomend to play the classics Cps 1, cps 2, neogeo etc arcade games, MAME0.106 or FB Alpha v0.2.97.38 which are alocted en archive.org?

pd: my english is not the better, I know... lol

Hi niabi,

Im try to build an image without kodi, its possible? if yes, how can I build an image without kodi?

And second question, how can I modify the emulation station menu? I dont want jump to kodi from the menu.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Great work niabi¡¡¡

Hi again niabi,

I try a first buil but obtain an error.

Cant't get qca9377-firmware-aml sources : qca-firmware_1.0.0-3_armhf.deb

Try later !!

I test the site url and dont exist any more the file version, how do I fix that?, the same with

qca-firmware_1.0.0-3_armhf.deb

Muchas gracias¡¡¡

I answer one of my questions.

Cant't get qca9377-firmware-aml sources : qca-firmware_1.0.0-3_armhf.deb

Try later !!

I test the site url and dont exist any more the file version, how do I fix that?, the same with

qca-firmware_1.0.0-3_armhf.deb

I edited packages\linux-firmware\qca9377-firmware-aml\package.mk, and changed

PKG_VERSION="1.0.0-3" to PKG_VERSION="1.0.0-4"

That's it.

I will continue testing.

I tried getting this to work on the meecool K1 Pro last night but no go. I used the correct device tree but fails to start, Its strange because kszaq own build works fine ?

Thanks niabi,

For now I try with your build, and do my own patches.

LeapOfFaith,

Your dbt file must have 1 Gb ethernet port, try with the same dbt file that kszaq.

Regards

Hello niabi,

Are you planning any new version on newest libreelec from kszak? I have problem with box sleep mode. Thanks, Chris

Thank you so much niabi ! I've had a quick play and your build is amazing. A single box running Kodi LE and Libretro - most impressive is it's even running Crazy Taxi at a playable frame rate (hope for Reicast to fix the audio clicks)!

Cannot wait for the next release to merge Kszaq's updates then this is going from USB to internal for sure!
Hope the laptop is sorted soon. Or maybe the community can help somehow?

Do you have a donation page? All this deserves a coffee/beer.

Thanks, I do not usually ask for donations, but they are more than welcome if you want to. I have a papal account, but I have not created a donation button. I can send it by PM

The new binary with the 8.2 from Kszaq update will be uploaded today, hopefully you guys can help me test it.

Edit: v1.7 PR1

Hey - happy to test. So failing at the first hurdle. When trying to access the Samba share I get asked for a password by default.

To get around this I tried by IP address instead of the network name. It allows you in yet the Roms folder is not shared. Neither is the root folder so can't get to it the long way around...

I've tried pulling the files from LE file manager yet no Roms/BIOS detected at startup.

Edit: Even with the roms/bios present they didn't detect and allow to run. So edited the samba.conf file to allow roms manually via the IP address.

All looks fine yet as called just "roms" I expect it is not detecting. Tried to get around this with adding the "sx05reroms" file in roms. Shall try renaming the roms folder too yet could need looking at as although tired I don't think its me (apologies if it is).

Thanks! I think that's an easy fix, I probably forgot to change the default setting.

Edit: Even with the roms/bios present they didn't detect and allow to run. So edited the samba.conf file to share roms manually via the IP address.

All looks fine yet the folder is called "roms" in storage, I presume a planned change to 1.6.5. Anywho so cannot get loaded in to ES, only Kodi.

Tried to get around this with adding the "sx05reroms" file in roms too, yet no change - Kodi looks sweet though. CEC, audio pass and PS4 added to bluetooth OK.
