How do I download the game addons (the libreretro cores I assume).

I have entered the Konami code, and have the games entry on the main menu, however I can not find any of my roms, and a search for the addon, yields an empty result.

I can not connect to the Libreelec Retroplayer Add-ons repository. It gives me an "Could not connect to repository"

The 9.0 cores don't exist yet.

I have however tested the 8.1 cores with some success, so you could get around this temporarily:

cp -R /usr/share/kodi/addons/repository.retroplayer.libreelec.addons/ /storage/.kodi/addons/repository.retroplayer81.libreelec.addons/
cd /storage/.kodi/addons/repository.retroplayer81.libreelec.addons/

replace the contents of addon.xml with:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<addon id="repository.retroplayer81.libreelec.addons"
                name="LibreELEC Retroplayer 81 Add-ons"
                version="8.0.0"
                provider-name="Lukas Rusak ([email protected])">
        <extension point="xbmc.addon.repository"
                name="LibreELEC.tv Retroplayer 81 Add-on Repository">
                <info>http://lrusak.libreelec.tv/addons/8.1/Generic/x86_64/addons.xml</info>
                <checksum>http://lrusak.libreelec.tv/addons/8.1/Generic/x86_64/addons.xml.md5</checksum>
                <datadir zip="true">http://lrusak.libreelec.tv/addons/8.1/Generic/x86_64/</datadir>
        </extension>
        <extension point="xbmc.addon.metadata">
                <summary>Retroplayer addon repository for LibreELEC</summary>
                <description>
Retroplayer binary add-ons for use with LibreELEC
                </description>
                <disclaimer>This is a testing repository. please don't ask for support in openelec forum / irc channel</disclaimer>
                <platform>all</platform>
        </extension>
</addon>

and enable this new repo.

Now you should be able to launch a game and have the emulator download automagically.

Good luck
