First of all, thank you for the great work to make this wonderfull software.
I didn’t found another subforum to ask for this. Sorry if it is not the accurate place. I know that it is not a CE problem itself but I can`t find how to solve it.
I installed RetroArch and make a simple script to launch it:
(notice how kodi is stopped after running retroarch )
then call it like this:
systemd-run /path/some_script.sh
another more complex option if you want to go that route is check an add-on called Bolt Ons! its very outdated but you can check how they manage to launch retroarch in there
please note that I have not tried this methods as I have a service incorporated in my build that does this.
@vpeter in my very short experience with trying to run stuff from Kodi, this will not work, as Kodi is stopped first so the script will die before it gets a chance to run Retroarch. Unless I am missing something very obvious.
By the way, @shanti I saw the link to instal retroarch as Kodi addon, but I don’t know if it’s posible to clone a git repository with CoreELEC. It is posible?
I made the add-on but its based on my build (sx05re) which is also more up to date than Lakka, it also includes Emulationstation and can be installed on top of CoreELEC
Noob here.
I’m pretty good at following directions, but it seems as if it hasn’t been completely clear about what to do.
I’ve messed with this a bunch, but I’m at the point of asking for help.
Of course, I can get this all to work from Android, but within Corelec, which runs much better for me, I can’t get it to work.
Right now, Corelec is fine.
Retroarch launches fine.
(I have to unplug and replug the keyboard usb [Rii i8+] to get it to register / work)
I can get back to Kodi, fine.
But, I can’t get IAGL to launch Retroarch.
I either get a black screen or spinning wheel in kodi, then nothing.
If someone wouldn’t mind putting together a tutorial about how to get retroarch to launch via kodi (Corelec) from IAGL (Internet Archive Game Launcher), I’d greatly appreciate it.
