I used what was in the add-on repository (2.1.3).(2019-03-24, 04:58)Adrian A Wrote: Perhaps this is a pretty elementary question but I'll ask anyway. I just tried 2.2.3 from the original post in this thread. Initially I had some issue pop up about "control id"... something and a blank screen. But I was able to successfully back out and re-enter RCB. At a 5 second glance it appears to be working correctly. I'll play around more and report back if more issues crop up. Thanks!

But I was able to successfully back out and re-enter RCB. Interesting, yesterday I experienced the same. Wasnt sure what caused this issue. However it also was the first time that this happened to me and I use RCB for a while. So it shouldnt occur that often. Thanks for your response. RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - cy1clown - 2019-03-25 I am having problems getting this set up. I am running COREelec, a fork of Libreelec, on an Odroid c2. I have added a couple of emulators through the repository and have an SD card installed with ROM's on it. My problem is that when I try and run ROM Collection browser for the firs time and set up a ROM collection at one point it asks me for a path to the emulators. I put my EMMC card in my laptop and search around to find that the emulators are located in storage/.kodi/addons the problem is the pop up window in kodi to locate the emulators doesn't see hidden folders so I can't navigate to my emulators. How can I resolve this issue?

How can I resolve this issue? You can either make them visible by Code: Settings (Kodi) -> Media -> General -> Show hidden files and directories RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - cy1clown - 2019-03-26 Kupo91 I made hidden files visible as you suggested and it worked fine. Thanks Jon RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - Royusmc - 2019-04-08 Ok it took forever but I did find a fix for the ViewMode not loading and I just wanted to share. In location kodi\addons\script.games.rom.collection.browser\resources\lib\gui.py Just change this #reset view mode viewModeId = self.Settings.getSetting(util.SETTING_RCB_VIEW_MODE) if viewModeId != None and viewModeId != '': xbmc.executebuiltin("Container.SetViewMode(%i)" % int(viewModeId)) To this #reset view mode viewModeId = self.Settings.getSetting(util.SETTING_RCB_VIEW_MODE) if viewModeId != None and viewModeId != '': xbmc.executebuiltin("Container.SetViewMode(%i)" % int(viewModeId)) xbmc.executebuiltin("Container.SetViewMode(%i)" % int(viewModeId)) I know this should not work but give it a try. Just Doubling that line got it to work for me. I hope this helps someone.

RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - Kupo91 - 2019-04-27 Does anybody use RCB with Retroarch on Windows? I got it running on Linux but on Windows it just opens and closes cmd if I try to launch a game.

Under the userdata\addon_data\script.games.rom.collection.browser\config.xml you will find <emulatorCmd>D:\to\your\retroarch\folder\retroarch.exe</emulatorCmd> <emulatorParams>"%ROM%"</emulatorParams> On the <emulatorParams>"%ROM%"</emulatorParams> line you have to add in the location of the core you want it to use like this <emulatorParams>-fullscreen -L "D:\to\your\retroarch\folder\cores\nestopia_libretro.dll" "%ROM%" </emulatorParams> If you are using the nestopia core. Good luck!

But I see that the games are being started from the Z: drive. Is there any chance that the drive letter may not be there as retroarch starts. Like when I mounted the Q: drive but it was unmounted because kodi.exe was closed. If not make sure there is no Unicode in the path or the rom name. Also try changing cores to core in the retroarch folder. But I really don't see any reason that the game should not have started without more info. I run mine in portable mode by running a bat code that mounts a data folder with kodi and all emulator stuff in it to the Q: drive and runs everything from there. That way I can run it off a flash drive and the roms are always in the same place. I want to help more but I really got nothing. Sorry.(2019-04-28, 18:23)Royusmc Wrote:Ye already tried that.

Is the Z: drive a location created by kodi. Retroach can't see any drives that you can't see from the my computers folder in windows.
