Does anyone have a script that works for Libreelec on the RPI 4, to use the power and reset buttons on the Retroflag NES4Pi case? I've seen some suggestions here on the forum with links to Github BUT these do not work from my testing.
Thanks in advance for any help you guys can provide.

I need to test it myself, but I think they must download to libretro-cores folder... it is weird... do you see if it is located in /storage/.kodi/userdata/Addon_data/script.gamestarter/retroarch/download ?It
It was strange, the "default" cores were showing but not the additional cores I had downloaded. Then none were showing, it might just be winscp being silly reconnecting. I eventually got them showing so made some edits, adding some extra systems and set the retroarch cores I wanted. I have about 20 systems setup now and they do work with the comic strip theme. It looks amazing!
I think I might have "overloaded" it though as it takes a looong time to quit ES and restart KODI. I have just run the update for your addon and the update/reinstall ES option. It hasn't helped, I suppose I can live with it for now. Scummvm also seems to cause some weird issues when I quit the games. I know it's an oddball core with retroarch so please don't think I am blaming you.
Thanks again for your time and your rapid responses. I'm aware there might always be bugs or niggling issues. Overall I'm really enjoying revisiting it though, I can really see the improvements from when I last used your addon late last year.
All the best -
Besides rom folder path, mame and fba should work using roms from that folder, and if you are using the correct romset for each emulator/core version they should run. But thanks for the advise, I use just one folder for both arcade systems and I am going to change as you say in order to separate both romsets.
About libretro cores, you can change path in retroarch settings but default one is /storage/.kodi/addons/script.gamestarter/resources/bin/libretro-cores/ (you must have "see hidden files" enabled). When you download a new one using retroarch or the full lakka package using addon settings they are also downloaded to this folder.
Thank you for the speedy reply.
Yes my romsets could also be an issue as I've not actually tested all the games yet, this is why I asked about adjusting the cores. Hidden folders is where I have gone wrong most likely. The heatwave has got to me, a schoolboy error on my part.
Thanks again for your time
EDIT
I actually had hidden files shown. I had downloaded the mame2010 core in retroarch as that usually covers most games. It wasn't showing in that folder you pointed to but now it is. Strange! Thanks again -
First off, thank you for all your hardwork.
I downloaded your LE8.zip (v2.9). I noticed that mame and fba were not working in Emulationstation. I had to edit the es_systems.cfg file as both fba and mame were pointing to the same rom folder. Changing FBA to the roms/fba folder fixed it....Just an FYI
On a side note...where are the libreto cores downloaded to please when we use the online updater in Retroarch? I would like to manually set emulationstation to use alternative cores but can't find them. The script.gamestarter/retroarch/cores folder is empty.
Thanks again and all the best with your future endeavours
