Thanks, it worked. Got one more question : can I use LibreElec with hyperion? I want to have ambilight.

You can but amlgrabber sux. No ambilight on most of TV channels.

Only one minor problem on .10. I had to modify Hyperiond.start script to wait few seconds before deamon could start. Without this startup effect (rainbow swirl) got stuck after 1 second. In one of the first bulids it was unnecessary.

BTW: Is that correct behaviour that gamestarter.log is recreated always on boot and previous log is rewritten?

I was thinking about this solution but I'm not a bash expert so I decided to do it this way. At the begining I as was not able to understande how did you manage to invoke certain scripts. It works but maybe i will find some time to do it your way. I'm aware that i made it in a bit improper way.

DONE:
I have changed /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.program.advanced.launcher/launchers.xml Scummvm launcher to

<application>/storage/.kodi/addons/script.gamestarter/resources/bin/scummvm.sh</application>

and scummvm.sh include:

#!/bin/sh
. /etc/profile


DIR="/storage/.kodi/addons/script.gamestarter"


systemd-run $DIR/resources/bin/scummvm.start "$@" &> /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/gamestarter.log

and scummvm.start include:

rPi3:~ # cat /storage/.kodi/addons/script.gamestarter/resources/bin/scummvm.start
#!/bin/sh
#!/bin/env python
. /etc/profile


#kodi-send --action="xbmc.ShowPicture(/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/frontend-assets/gamestarter_fanart.png)"
sleep 1s


echo '::Gamestarter:: -> launching on' $(date) >> /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/gamestarter.log
# path to addon
DIR="/storage/.kodi/addons/script.gamestarter"
CONFIG_FILE="/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/retroarch/retroarch.cfg"
# LIBRETRO_DIR="/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/retroarch/cores"
LIBRETRO_DIR=$DIR"/resources/bin/libretro-cores"
AMIGA_TEMP_FILE=$DIR/resources/bin/launchTemp.uae
LOG_FILE=/storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter/gamestarter.log


# Stop KODI
echo '::Gamestarter:: -> stop kodi...' >> $LOG_FILE
systemctl stop kodi


# Enable ALSA
echo '::Gamestarter:: -> enable alsa...' >>  $LOG_FILE
modprobe snd_bcm2835


# Launch emulator

cd /storage/scummvm/
./scummvm.sh --joystick
# Disable ALSA

rmmod snd_bcm2835


# Start KODI
# systemctl start kodi

systemctl start kodi

I have used precompiled image from scummvm page
scummvm-1.9.0-raspberrypi.tar.gz
and unpacked to /storage/scummvm with

cd /storage
tar -xzf scummvm-1.9.0-raspberrypi.tar.gz

added from regular raspbian

libjpeg.so.62, libpng12.so.0

libraries into scumm lib folder (attached to the post). There is also libSDL2-2.0.so.0 library but scumm is hardlinked aginst this sdl2lib added to archive.

Also you should edit /storage/scummvm/scummvm.sh to allow parsing arguments to main executable:

rPi3:~ # cat /storage/scummvm/scummvm.sh
#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./lib ./scummvm $1

You have to use keyboard to quit this scummvm version. There is no bind to popup menu using joystick or i don't know any
I know that 99,99% of Gamestarter users will not need that but my son will not manage to save a game with RetroArch while he plays PuttPutt. He will certainly find S key on keyboard to save or L to load. Also now it is possible to play Secret of Monkey Island 2 - in liberetro port there is no way to pass copy protection screen

I guess i will try to unpack raspbian deb and add scummvm files on my own. I guess i will only have to edit scummvm.sh inside script directory.

I've done it. Is it possible to add regular (fully working) scummvm build along side of retroarch version? Maybe you could build newest v.1.9 and add menu option to let as chose. Non working keyboard is complete failure in some games. Regular ScummVM also let's you use gamepad/joystick in games.

I have updated form 2.5.8 and AFAIR there were initail setup. Anyway there is no problem if i leave SNES, but problem exists on ScummVM and N64. BTW: scummvm liberetro port is useless - i can't find any way to open onscreen keyboard (and my usb does not work) so no copy protection, no saves in certain games etc....

I use libreelec 7.0.2 on rPi3. There is no log @ /storage/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/script.gamestarter
Gamestarter is @ 2.6.0 version. Where to enable logs for GameStarter?

Any idea how to fix lock up on retrarch quit? When i chose L1+L2+start+select on controller and then navigate to Quit Retroarch it ends up with still working animation in the background but retroarch is stuck. No reaction on keboard, gamepad. I'm stuck until i press ctrl+alt+del on keyboard.

It works out of the box. At least in my case it scans networks and connects (get IP from dhcpd) while i use cable. What dtb have you tried?

Will it make more drivers available (for example external bluetooth dongles that don't work in current builds)?

I don't know why if i install your 008 build i get no audio at all. My default device becomes pulse audio / bluetooth.

I've seen that post on previous page, but because of my curiosity want to try this way.

Very stable, just woke it up using remote after it's been on for about a week! Been running a tvheadend server instance getting an OTA TV signal via Hauppage 950Q USB TV Tuner. No clients were connected but a few sucessful recordings took place.

I will test the new 7.9 alpha this weekend hopefully.

Thanks you for all your efforts, this is great!

What chipset does this tuner use?

Since this is retroarch specific, I responded to you with some troubleshooting steps in the thread meant to discuss the retroarch addon here. If you do not mind I propose we keep that discussion there and leave this thread for more generic questions about the MOD to run 32 bit binaries.

Yes! I will try to post that one plus other ones for the Alpha builds this evening. I will update the first post with latest links for download.

Thx. I can't wait to give it a try with Home1

kszaq could you add 32-bit libs to your build?

@ JoKeRzBoX Do you plan to release update package for 009 build?
