[LibreELEC] Bolt Ons! AceStream & EmulationStation + RetroArch/Libretro for S905/S905X devices!

[Meiden]

Hi there,

First of all, say thank you pinguy, for all these amazing things that you bring us.
Having said that, I've got a problem with your emulationstation port. I've read your notes and I noticed this partitular section: "When first opening EmulationStation it may not fit the screen correctly. If this happens just reboot the box and re-open EmulationStation. Also when first changing the theme. It might not apply. Again just reboot the box. These issues only happen when first using EmulationStation."

So it happens that my screen doesn't fit even after the third, the fourth and so on reboots. I've already tried to delete all the files and start over again, but it still shows the emulationstation frontend bigger than my screen. Is there any possibility to fix this by my own? Is there any configuration to modify?

Thank you very much.

----- EDIT

I've already solved this problem. Just switched resolution from 720p to 1080p and it works as it should right now.

Hi, I noticed too that reicast is available on our platform.

Pinguy, do you think it's possible to add it please?

Thanks

Sorry no. This is only for RetroArch/Libretro cores. There is only a reicast core for x86. What Niabi is doing is porting the stand alone app to the platform. Something I have no interest in doing as it would be to much work.

Hi, newb here and rolling this version on libreelec on a USB drive: [8.0.2c] LibreELEC 8.0 builds for KI Plus / KII Pro / KI Pro

When I installed it there is no storage/roms/ folder created.

Using the command in one of the first post to troubleshoot, I got:

LibreELEC:~/.emulationstation # ./emulationsatation
-sh: ./emulationsatation: not found

Also, is there a way to use a kodi virtual remote to navigate into retroarch/emulation station menu?


Thx!

Spellings wrong. This is what you need.

cd ~/.emulationstation
./emulationstation

No. You shouldn't think of it like that. Think of LibreELEC as a minimal Ubuntu/Debian build that runs the Kodi binary. All I am doing is adding the RetroArch/Libretro binary to the minimal Ubuntu/Debian (LibreELEC) build. They have nothing to do with Kodi. LibreELEC –(Just enough OS for KODI) is just a basic OS that runs Kodi. But it has enough installed to run other apps/binaries like EmulationStation & RetroArch.

[canadien]

Thanks for the clarification and pointing out the spelling error, pingu!

Here is what it says...

LibreELEC:~ # cd ~/.emulationstation
LibreELEC:~/.emulationstation # ./emulationstation
*** ERROR SETTING VSCREEN
lvl0:   No systems found! Does at least one system have a game present? (check that extensions match!)
(Also, make sure you've updated your es_systems.cfg for XML!)

As I said I can't upload at least one rom as there is no Roms folder created.

[canadien]

And for the XML update problem, is this problematic specifically because of the build I am using or perhaps because the system boots from a usb drive?

Hi, I have some input lag with wireless Xbox360 Controller. Is it normal? Or are there settings in Retroarch, to fix that problem? I use default settings.

And how can I Update when there is a new Version. Can I update it with following code?

 
 ssh -l root [B]"LibreELEC IP"[/B] [I]Password[/I]: [B]libreelec[/B] cd /storage curl -LO https://archive.org/download/EmulationStationS905/EmulationStation_S905.tgz tar xopf EmulationStation_S905.tgz rm -f EmulationStation_S905.tgz reboot

Hi, this guide looks fantastic and Id like to try it on a Wetek Core (AmlogiS812) is there any equivalent guide anywhere? or could someone point me in the right direction?

Booting Libreelec from SD card BTW

I found what I THINK I need here: https://github.com/AlexELEC/AlexELEC-AML/releases but I have no idea how to install (I'm a total linux noob!)

Thanks in advance

Update:

I won't be able to work on this any more. My box burnt out and now have gotten a S912 SOC Box.

Applys to Acestream too?

OK guys, I will be maintaining this project moving forward. I have not decided if I will make a new thread or not. This has been cleared with pinguy . I was waiting for him to make this announcement but I guess he has been too busy. Moving forward, I will be glad to help, provide updates, etc.

Was he supporting reicast? And thank you for giving support.

Thank`s for your work.
After I got my Xiaomi gamepad working, could you please tell me, how to get scummvm working?
