Roms dont start #1

Open ethernity opened 7 years ago

ethernity commented 7 years ago

Quitting Kodi and starting emulationstation manually Roms start fine. But if I use your plugin, emulationstation starts but once I start an emulator or a rom it switches back to Kodi after that switches back to the emulationstation interface

Thanks for reporting this @ethernity , I'll take a look. What version of Kodi are you using? So if I understand correctly, you are not able to play the rom, am I right?

Same here. Roms starts normally from terminal. But from addon, Roms dont start, As if there were no bios

Anybody found a fix for this yet?

Turns out the problem is that starting emulationstation directly doesn't provide a tty for emulators to run. I forked this project and modified it so that it now works properly on linux.

I also added a few workarounds.

I will make a pull request after posting this.

As of version 1.4 there are switches in the Advanced configuration tab to work around this issue.
