I installed the Gamestarter add-on and I have a problem with the SNES game sound. Play the game through the advancedlauncher, which is part of the add-on. It's just that I just hear the unlucky cracking instead of the music ... Maybe the MegaDrive sounds OK. I use GameStarter v2.9 on LibreElec 8 and RPI3 connected to the older SHARP AQUOS TV. Thank you for your help

If you just installed Gamestarter addon, I recommend you to remove it and install retraorch addon and Advanced Emulator Launcher addon. This is a win-win combination.

About your sound issue you can take a look to the following github issues, maybe any of them will help you to find out your solution:
https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Games.../issues/67
https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Games.../issues/39
https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Games.../issues/26

If you can't solve your issue after trying those solutions, we can take a look to it but I will need you to provide some logs.

Does this add on play nice with an existing Retropie setup? I've tried advanced emulator launcher and rom collection browser from Kodi (pplware flavor), using retropies runcommand.sh script to launch the emulators. All the emulators launch, but they launch behind the Kodi display, and kodi still has control focus.

I'd like to use gamestarter in the same way (using runcommand.sh, not installing any extra add-ons apart from AEL). Will this work?

You can take a look to this file: https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Games...ddon.start

Then you can copy/paste in your runcommand.sh file the lines related with stop and start kodi.

I decided to start with a fresh SD card and the latest LibreELEC image to try out your addon. I'm having trouble adding roms from a network source. I can browse the source in Kodi and even add it as a source in the file manager, but when I update the launcher to point to the same place, the scan doesn't pick up any roms. here's the tail

I think it is something related with paths but you better ask @Wintermute0110 in official thread:

Hi,

Do not put ROMs in remote SMB directories, it's not supported yet. Support for ROMs in remotes will be added for Kodi Leia but now put your ROMs in a local writable directory. Asset directory may be in a SMB remote but a local directory will be much faster.

Ok, I solved the above problem by creating a permanent network mount in the /storage folder, so now AEL picks up the roms in the folder. New problem, when I go to launch I get a launch error. Here's the relevant log section.

This is a GBA title, which I expected to launch in retroarch. But the argument gpsp makes me think that the AEL config is pointing toward something else. FYI, I used the bulk core download option in the addon settings. I did not go through the retroarch interface to download the cores.

@crono141 You don't have permission to access or execute /storage/.kodi/addons/game.retroarch/addon.sh.

Execute chmod 755 /storage/.kodi/addons/game.retroarch/addon.sh and chmod 755 /storage/.kodi/addons/game.retroarch/ and try again.

Tried again after chmod. Same behavior, though there are a few more lines in the log file. Not sure if you saw my edit or not above, but the second time I launched Kodi quit and restarted, but the rom didn't launch.

According to the new log, AEL launchs /storage/.kodi/addons/game.retroarch/addon.sh.

When you launch addon.sh in theory Kodi stops, Retroarch shows up, and when Retroarch finished then Kodi starts again. If the permissions of addon.sh were wrong maybe the premissions of the Retroarch executable are wrong, execution of addon.sh is interrupted and then Kodi is not restarted. I'm not sure... but maybe there was a problem when you installed Gamestarter and the permissions got wrong and that is causing trouble. I guess bite_your_idols is the guy to answer this.
