[jayp76]

Is it possible to integrate Limeligt?

looks interesting. adding this link for reference https://github.com/irtimmer/limelight-embedded

I made a Guide to the wiki how to manually add it to retropie and emulation station: https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Quickguide-for-configuring-limelight-with-Retropie-and-Emulation-Station

just updated the wikipage after I found working OC settings to get the 1080p/60FPS streaming running... 1080p/30fps and 720p/60fps work without OC.

I'll probably try to make an script that automates the install as much as possible (more on that later)

[stsfin]

Here is the installer script I created:

https://github.com/stsfin/RetropieLimelightInstaller

Should help integration.

Updated the installer script with eventID selection. Added a secondary script just for reconfiguring the IP and keymap.

[stsfin]

Updated the script, it is basically now complete, tested with 3 different retropie installations: https://github.com/stsfin/RetropieLimelightInstaller
@joolswills be free to fork it for RetroPie :)

Im having trouble in integrating the reconfig script to Emulation station. The read command just gives "read error: 0: bad file descriptor" when running the reconfig-script from the ports-section... it works nicely from the console... @joolswills any pointers?

[stsfin]

The installer now creates a new "device"-menu under Emulation station for better integration... Still no luck with the reconfiguration script though.

[joolswills]

regarding the problem - use <dev/tty on the read command.

[stsfin]

@joolswills , thanks will try it out if it works i will update the script to add the reconfigurator to the menu

[stsfin]

Thanks for @joolswills for helping me with the last obstacle... Here it is, the final version of the script with the reconfigurator accesible from emulation station after install: https://github.com/stsfin/RetropieLimelightInstaller/archive/2.0.2.zip

Here is how it looks and works after install https://youtu.be/CT0Zhmh9e9o On 29 Mar 2015 16:42, "Jools Wills" notifications@github.com wrote:

Commented on some minor issues in the merged code. Should I rather have commented here?

[stsfin]

If you are refering to the code that will be implemented to Retropie you should comment in that thread.
