Hi bite_your_idols,

I've just started trying to get going with your repo on my Pi4 running libreELEC 9.2.1. I've downloaded the zip, and installed it. - Memory stick, enable allow unknown sources, install from .zip file. But I can't see any difference / new options. I have the official KODI repository for game emulators and the such (which I think is default)

Have I missing something?

Does this plugin create a GameStarter menu item in either the repos submenu or via the main menu Games option? I'm not seeing anything that looks like the first screen shot on your github page. I wonder if this is down to using a RPi4 or some other variable?

I'd really like to use your plugin as there are so many other emulator options via the main KODI repo - a little unsure where to start with that lot!

Many thanks in advance

Did you manage to the third step in the guide (after installing the repo from the zip file)?

"Go to Kodi → Add-ons → Download or Install from Repository and select the addons you want to install"

With Zip you only install the new repository - after that you need to download individual add-ons from there.
The first screen shot in Github shows installed add-ons (and not just from this repo).

Also, another headache I have been having is difficulty navigating Retroarch. Specifically, whenever I seem to press the back button to return to previous system menu screen on any type of sub menu (Display Overlays options, ending game content and trying to load another game/core, updating system configs, etc), Retroarch is always closed and LibreElece starts Kodi back up. I managed to save the controller mapping configurations, but any other type of system config I cannot seem to get back to the main menu to successfully and always forced back to Kodi. I am using a 8bitdo bluetooth controller, and also had this issue when using a keyboard on initial load. Am I doing something wrong in trying to get back to Retroarch main menu, or did I accidentally change a Retroarch menu setting?

Sorry for the long post, I would be most appreciative for any advice on how to make my Retroarch experience in Kodi a little better!

Hi,

are you using the default Ozone menu, or the older XMB?

I have been playing with exactly similar setup (RPI4/Libreelec. 9.2.1/Kodi 18.6) and when I first installed Retroarch (few weeks back, clean install, not an upgrade), it was crashing immediately every time when trying to navigate the into any of the submenus in the settings.

What helped me was to ssh into the RPi, find the config file for Retroarch and switch to xmb instead of Ozone for the menu.

It seems that PeterB and MisterHans had also the same issue with Ozone on the same setup (RPI4/Libreelec. 9.2.1/Kodi 18.6), see post #1,068 and #1,075 above

Seems that this exact issue is documented also here, with Retroarch installed on Lakka on Rpi4: When using the Ozone menu driver, navigating into any submenu causes RetroArch to crash · Issue #793 · libretro/Lakka-LibreELEC · GitHub .
