just a heads up, if you install acestream it will overwrite your autostart file

Hello people
Sorry for my English

I'm loving the LibreElec + EmulationStation, I can play with a generic wired gamepad.
Also be able to configure a bluetooth keyboard to control the Kodi.
My problem is in configuring my bluetooth gamepad Ipega 9025, none of the four connection modes is fully compatible with ES. With the keyboard mode (A + home) I can even navigate through the ES interface, but when I start a game the direction keys work, but the action keys do not work.

Thank you very much, I'm really enjoying your work, I hope someone can help me to correctly connect my Ipega.

My device is a NEXBOX A95X (1 + 8)

Hello!

Thank you for the work done!!!

I am trying to use the pack on the Khadas Vim Pro but unsuccessfully up to now. Does any body succeed to play?
I have tried different configurations but nothing work up to now (Newbie if you didn't catch it earlier ^^).

Thank you in advance for any help!

Gontrand.

sandrostl and Gontrand : Try configuring the gamepad in retroarch. Connect a keyboard and in a game press F1.
Now you are in retroarch (gui frontend). There you go to settings, input. And configure the gamepad.
My 8bitdo SFC30 controllers also didn't work, after configuring them via retroarch it worked.

@trohn_javolta : When I start emulation Station (or even If i go in retroarch, select emulator directory and select rom) It just display Kodi17 splash screen and return to Kodi.
I have activated logging but as newbie it's not clear for me ^^

Thanks for the help!

Gontrand.

PS: I also posted on Khadas Forum about this...

Thanks, I can configure the gamepad, but it does not work for all emulators, I have not tested them all yet, but psx does not work, I'm doing several tests, I hope to get it. Anyone who has any tips I appreciate.

I think there are a new version of AceStream module for S905/S905X devices.
Version 3.1.19 http://src.alexelec.in.ua/acestream-aml-3.1.19.tar.xz
how to install?

Updated packages.

• Acestream 3.1.19
• Retroarch 1.5.0

Acestream is well worth upgrading too. This version is the best I have ever seen Acestream run. The streams load extremely fast and run stable.
As for RetroArch. The update brings a cool new online play feature. You can host games and play them online with other players.

The package is still running the same cores. Only RetroArch has been update

As I don't look for updates that often. If there is an update to AlexELEC that I have missed, post here that there has been an update and I will get an email letting me know I need to update the packages.

as a suggestion, instead of including an autostart.sh file that overwrites the one you have already, can you make a script file or add to the instructions something like

ssh -l root [B]"LibreELEC IP"[/B]
[I]Password[/I]: [B]libreelec[/B]
cd /storage
curl -LO [URL="https://archive.org/download/AcestreamS905/Acestream_S905.tgz"]https://archive.org/download/Acestre...tream_S905.tgz[/URL]
tar xopf Acestream_S905.tgz
rm -f Acestream_S905.tgz
echo '(' >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh
echo '/storage/.config/acestream/tools/acestream' >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh
echo ' )&' >> /storage/.config/autostart.sh
reboot

Its a bit of a pain to have to backup autostart.sh and redo everything if you have a lot of stuff on it like I do on my build

I get it is a bit of a pain for you, but for everyone running LibreELEC it is a none issue as LibreELEC doesn't have a autostart.sh by default.

So for people having issues with controllers I just faced the same issue. I was testing out a wireless remote/keyboard combo that uses a USB 2.4GHz dongle. When the dongle is connected the controller stops working.

So if you are having issues make sure you haven't got any other input devices connected.

Yeah I understand that, but if by any chance anyone using a build that does use it, or make any changes to autostart.sh for any other reason (for example, you are using it on this same add-on, others could do the same) Installing this will render that autostart.sh useless, until you recreate it.

Anyways it was just a suggestion, no need to do any changes if you don't want to.
