RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - theanarcat - 2016-01-27 someone, somewhere, sometime, should probably change http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Rom_Collection_Browser once the move is completed. i also encourage authors here to consider free software alternatives to github, like gitlab.com. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - theanarcat - 2016-01-27 and i have created this issue to followup on the project's transition to github(?): https://github.com/anarcat/romcollectionbrowser/issues/226 RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - blueman83 - 2016-02-02 I'm having trouble getting this to work on Windows. I've installed retroarch and can run games using it, but when I try to run RCB I can scrape the games but as soon as I go to play one Kodi switches to windowed mode, a command prompt box opens for a second then Kodi goes back to fullscreen. I'm sure it's just a configuration issue, possibly to do with the switches I used, but I'm not sure where to look, is there a logfile with the error somewhere? Thanks in advance!

I'm sure it's just a configuration issue, possibly to do with the switches I used, but I'm not sure where to look, is there a logfile with the error somewhere? Command prompt opening then closing with no effect usually means mistake in specification of application arguments to RCB. Happens not only with RCB but every frontend, RetroArch loads but since you didn't specify the right commands it doesn't know what to do and crashes. In last page I've posted something about it, you can also check the links in my sig. [it's shameless self-promotion but let's not get into that shall we?] RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - CRJMichiels - 2016-02-05 I am having a problem on my Nvidia Shield TV. I can boot a ton just fine however I lose controller support booting from Kodi, I am using an Nvidia Shield controller. Now if I boot directly from retroarch the controller works fine. When I boot from Kodi I get a controller not configured text in the bottom left. I believe the boot params are messing something up. Any advice would be appreciated.

They are not compatible with Edens Python 2.6. This seemed to work for the original poster, but unfortunately, I've recently got this problem and this advice didn't help. I hadn't used RCB since upgrading to Windows 10 and upgrading Kodi from 14.x to 15.2, so it could have something to do with either. In any event, I didn't have a platform_libraries folder in "resources", so I created it, created the win32 folder beneath it, and placed the .egg file there. I also unzipped the egg file to that location. None of this helped - it's still not finding pylzma. Does anyone have any suggestions? :/ RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - Borg-101 - 2016-02-07 (2016-01-21, 22:19)Zpectre87 Wrote: Ok... Thanks for your advice. It didn't work. :-p Just teasing haha. It did set me on the right path. Thank you very much. This is how I was able to get it to work. "-f -L cores/nameofcore.dll "%ROM%"" The latest RCB and Retroarch 1.3 handles everything else. In case anyone else is running into the same issue, the parameters are also the same for savestate. I only have 3 remaining issues: 1. About half the time I exit from the retroarch menu, Kodi does not go back to fullscreen. I THINK I have solved this by using the"\" in post launch cmd section which makes kodi fullscreen...in windows at least. 2. The view seems to randomly change back to the "Files" view. I am currently using the Revolve skin and would like for the following to happen. Enter RCB, be presented with a list of consoles, enter console, be presented with game list for that console. If anyone can point me to resources on how to do it, I would be very much obliged. 3. I would like to be able to exit retroarch and go back into kodi from the game, rather than going into the retroarch menu and quitting the game WITH THE CONTROLLER. I have a custom exit button setup with my tv remote and FLIRC to do this, but if I'm just lounging around with my sons playing games, I would like for us to be able to do it with the controller. My oldest and I recently built a nice retropie setup for my father for his birthday. I know with that I can press start+select to get back to the main menu. I'm guessing there is a similar way to do it in retroarch PC.....so this really isn't a RCB issue. Still...any help would be appreciated. Lastly, I'm working on a pretty comprehensive HTPC setup. By my estimates I'm about 90% done. I would be happy to share what I have done to get it up and running. I currently have the windows 10 netflix app launch from Kodi AND working with my tv remote control. If anyone needs any help, feel free to hmu.

Also, you use \ on Windows and / on Linux, but I don't know if RCB wants the Linux / despite running on Windows.

That could have been it. It threw me for a loop as well. I was investigating a fair amount after several unsuccessful attempts and it wasn't until I was watching a video on youtube and I just happened to notice he had forward slashes instead of back slashes. I tried two things at once. The first thing was removing the paths to everything but the core. The second was to go with the forward slash.

I got RCB working really well but it doesn't always want to bring Kodi back to fullscreen. t doesn't show up in the log file as an error, so idk. The other thing, and I suspect related, is that the view doesn't always stay what I leave it at. For whatever reason, it will revert to the default view. This doesn't show up as an error either. I'm working on going through the log, but I may just end up using emulation station or ice.

EmulationStation is good but it has some quirks I don't like. There's also "Big Blue" now. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - trihy - 2016-02-11 Any ideas how to add new emulators? Lots of new emus are coming out. Cemu, xenia, rcps3... RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - christullo - 2016-02-14 I can't get this plugin to add my ROMs!! It sticks on the first one every single time, and just sits there at 7 percent. It never advances beyond the first ROM. And nothing gets added to Kodi . I'm on WIndows 10. WHat other information can I provide you with that might help you solve my problem?? Anyone?? Thanks so much! RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - EB1980 - 2016-02-16 I hate to repost however I have spent endless hours trying to find an answer. I am using Eminence 2.0 on Jarvis on an android device. When I open RCB I have in a large white text "console genre year publisher a-z" in the upper middle of every screen, even when the filter menu is hidden. I see someone a year back that just deleted the filter menu labels "console genre year publisher a-z", as i agree these filters are self explanatory. Where and how do I delete these files?? if anyone could help teach where to fins these files and how I edit them I would be so grateful. Thank You |
