New Windows and OSX builds posted, I fixed the broken game add-ons. Also, when playing a game, Kodi now samples the controller at that game's framerate (and samples at 60fps when no game is playing)

Hi I'm still getting all the emus marked as incompatible, I've tried refreshing the repository just in case but no luck

It should update over time, I forced it by removing the add-ons database and restarting kodi
Code:
rm /storage/.kodi/userdata/Database/Addons19.db
systemctl restart kodi
Thank you garbear and lrusak! I was having problems on raspberry pi 2 openelec with the retroplayer repository, but they are solved after updating to the latest ARM version lrusak posted and deleting the addons19.db as suggested. Afterwards I still needed to install manually as per this post, and now everything works great. I'm so excited to see how this project has come to fruition!
I pushed a fix for the broken just-in-time installation failing. It broke in the last rebase to 15.2, but building in-tree was easier that hosting a repo so I never got around to fixing it.
Awesome, I'll do some builds later

This build should fix the just-in-time emulator installation. So instead of installing emulators manually you should be prompted when you try and play a rom that doesn't have a supported emulator installed.

Hi @lrusak,
I would love to run and test OpenELEC with retroplayer but I still have a Nvidia ION based HTPC. Would you mind to also build the Nvidia_Legacy version of OpenELEC? I tried to do it myself but I could not figure out how to switch from the default kodi source to the retroplayer branch...
Cheers, glad

My Generic build uses my nvidia multi patches so you are able to use it on old hardware.

Very cool, thanks!
Hello all, yesterday I tried to play Windjammers on Retroplayer OE but there seems to be no platform specific emulator for it.
I tried MAME - with which I played Passing Shot for 2 hours - but strangely it did not work (works on Openemu, mac).
So I went for BeetleNGP (supposedly "Included in build"), but it was nowhere to be found in the repository Sad
I then installed all the other MAME cores, but neither of them worked.
How can I get it to work?
Thanks
Windjammers = Best game ever! Wasnt it neo geo though?
yes it is! And yes, best game EVER!

BeetleNGP is a Neo Geo Pocket emu..
Then the core matrix page needs to be updated Smile
