It does? Since when?

I created a working launcher for FS-UAE to test previously, it's not that hard to look at the Dolphin loader and replace commands with fs-uae. I decided against spending time on it for the above mentioned reasons.

As for RetroArch, I'll just bump the version as I don't follow the release versions anyway. Don't know if the version in the last release has the issue or not.

The path to autoconfigs should be /tmp/autoconfig which is an overlay of /usr/share/retroarch/autoconfig and /storage/.config/retroarch/autoconfig.

Regarding sound, if you create an asound.conf then any ALSA application will use the same device you specify there.

Indeed, some of the features I have added are poorly documented which is due to my laziness I was thinking to create a settings addon for these options but never get around to do so.

Paths are the same as in LAKKA, so you could look at their documentation to get an idea of how to do certain things. Ideally everything should already be baked in though. I wouldn't recommend using the online updater, as there have been cases where some of the cores have been dependent on certain versions of external shared libraries that are not included in this OS. Then again, nightly builds of cores can potentially bring useful features, so it all depends. Trying to keep up with the latest git versions can be chaotic and buggy, so once a stable version is reached it's probably best to stay on it a while.

It is possible to do it in RetroArch as well, RobLoach has made this launcher core that starts the external Dolphin from within RetroArch. You could create a specific launcher for each of the external applications as well, but I think stuff like switching to 50Hz / PAL mode would be problematic in KMS mode. Probably doable in X11/GL mode though but takes time to do and I find that Emulationstation covers the frontend needs just fine.

I doubt it, rar is the choice for newsgroup uploaders not content providers

There's absolutely no reason to keep videos rar'ed up.

LE still fits within 512MB. Personally I like to reserve 1GB+ to fit other boot options.

It supports whatever game controllers the Linux 4.14 kernel supports. I recommend the dualshock 4, works great.

Change back to gl and you should be all set. Vulkan isn't working for all cores and I have only tested Intel with this build there might be something missing.

AFAIK the emulator is in early development? In any case, if it runs well in Wine then it should work fine in Docker as well.

I did stop including Docker, so the addon is needed. That file isn't needed for anything per se, it's just a way to start pcsx2 outside of Emulationstation. I use it to start the emulator from an SSH terminal.

Every game suffer from input lag, even strategy games although they would be playable. Any fastpaced game is unplayable for me. Pressing a button should result in near instant action. Having to send the button press to the remote computer, then wait for the updated screen to be sent back is obviously not a good solution.

Moonlight and other streaming options just doesn't cut it due to input latency. Docker is really quite easy when you get into it.

I already do this with PCSX2, and I have in fact been testing Steam as well and it works great. So to answer the question, yes it's possible, and I might just add it.

32-bit uefi issue perhaps? Think there are some threads about this.

You can edit /storage/.config/retroarch/retroarch.cfg and change video_driver to gl. As for Spotify, it does work here just checked. I'm currently in the middle of a rebuild, so expect a new release tomorrow you should try that.

Spotify, Emulationstation and Dolphin log all indicate not having set asound.conf as described on the first page. RetroArch log indicates that you are trying to use Vulcan, which isn't supported with an nvidia card in this build.

Cherry trail wasn't properly supported until at least 4.14, so you definitely should try LE9 or any of the custom builds of LE8 using a more recent kernel.

As for launching apps, try using XBMC.RunScript which is what I switched to as XBMC.System.Exec was causing problems (don't recall the details right now).

Check your es_systems.cfg and verify that the command to run Dolphin is correct, I might have forgotten to change it back after switching to Dolphin standalone again.

If you simply read the first post, which you already should have done, the instructions on how to get the logs are provided there.
