I have RCB all set up and all my Mame roms are now showing fine , however how can i lunch them ? - i get option for Retro arch -2013 or 2010 - but the latest build does not run - i presume the config paths are incorrect anyone please advise what I need to do to launch them ( they launch fine outside RCB)

Many thanks

( android device running Kodi)

Is RCB still being actively developed by anybody, and if so, is there any particular github repo that would be "best" place to look at for updates & potentially to push fixes to? I've got some improvements in mind for RCB but I didn't want to start messing around with the code without first know that I'm starting from the right place.

I am migrating the code from googlecode to github these days (ok, its already weeks and months...). The new home of the project will be: https://github.com/maloep/romcollectionbrowser. I have to do some fixes on my own and already have some pull requests waiting to be integrated in a new release. So, if you want to start working on anything this is the place to go. You can also contact me via PM. I hope that I will be around more regularly in the future.

I'm trying to scrape ROMs on my Shield TV and it keeps telling me that it can't create the directory. At first I thought the reason was because I selected my external HDD, then I tried to use internal storage and it still gave me the same error. I'm using the stable release of Kodi 15 that was just released.

Hi Malte

Any chance one of your fixes will be to support skins like Aeon Nox that are 1080p? That would be great, as I guess many people using RCB also use custom skins

Aeon Nox

I get constant errors when trying to scrape games on Android. This is the error I'm getting: "Error: Could not create Artwork file. Check XBMC.log for details"

Here's a full debug log: http://xbmclogs.com/pemutpacg relevant info starts at line 174. RCB is restarted at line 362.

Does anyone know how to activate cheats within RCB? It seems only possible when you launch emulators in standalone mode, especially ePSXe
thanks!

Hey man.. How did you get that cool startup video? For me its just a dark blue screen with "KODI" and a loading bar.

Or is this just in Aeon Nox?

[SOLVED]

Hey all, I am attempting to set this up on my rig but the guide/wiki only seems to have instructions for windows?? I'm using kodibuntu

I have installed RBC and attempted to point it to retroarch to use that as an emulator.. But what is the actual file I'm suppose to be pointing it to?

I feel I'm missing something here. Sorry guys, I'm very nooby.. I don't mind reading.. I'm so far up to page 50/324.. i figure somebody has written something
simple and directed for kodibuntu users.. But if anyone could put me out of my misery.. that would be much appreciated.

Hello,

I'm having a problem with the video snaps in Rom Collection Browser. All my games no longer display the snaps after I downloaded one yesterday. When I rollover a game the audio from the clips still play but the video does not. It's just completely blank. My entire ROM collection is being affected not a specific console, or handheld. All my video files are .mp4 files and they were working fine until yesterday.

All my other media works too. I can still see screenshots, fanart, boxes for front and back. I've tried using all types of various skins like Aeon MQ6, Confluence, Aeon Nox, Rapier. I've tried all RCB skins like Simplicity, Confluence and Night. I've updated my Windows Media player. Nothing seems to be correcting the issue.

Also I'm using Kodi 15.0 Isengard.

Help please.
