RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - Friko - 2016-10-03
Hello everyone,
Been tinkering with RBC for the past few days. It's a great idea but quite problematic to set up at first.
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to clear the cache? I have manually updated (overwritten) some of the front covers. The updated covers appear fine when the games are highlighted but the next and back are showing the old cover.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
ROM Collection Browser is currently not maintained anymore and known to cause trouble with Kodi Jarvis and Krypton. Why don't you give Advanced Emulator Launcher a try?

@mrw1986 and Wintermute0110, thanks for all your help, but I've just switched to Romshelf. All I needed was a frontend for my roms and this one's totally hassle free,

Hi, I searched and found libraries for .7z support for Kodi 16.1. Tested and running on Win10 x64 machine.
http://www98.zippyshare.com/v/RjJe6pTQ/file.html
If I compile pylzma.so on Linux x86 and put it to an Android device to /data/app/org.xbmc.kodi..lib/libpylzma.so,
I get error
RCB_ERROR: You have tried to launch a .7z file but you are missing required libraries to extract the file. You can download the latest RCB version from RCBs project page. It contains all required libraries.
RCB_ERROR: Error: dlopen failed: "libpylzma.so" has unexpected e_machine: 3
RCB_ERROR: Error handling compressed file
Someone knows how to compile libpylzma.so for Android arm architecture ?

Hello guys, haven't been on here in a while. Haven't had any issues till now...haha! Ok I've had my rom collection browser setup for the longest time...i have numerous emulators and such setup and have always worked flawlessly. My issue i just encountered was that when i went to setup "GAME BOY ADVANCE" at the platform select screen nothing happens when i choose it. To be in more step by step detail....when i choose "ADD ROM COLLECTION" then "SCRAPE GAME INFO ONLINE" and then go to select "GAME BOY ADVANCE" from platform selection screen...nothing happens. if i choose "GAME BOY" above it or "GAME BOY COLOR" below it, it goes to next step which is choosing which emulator but nothing happens when choosing "GAME BOY ADVANCE". i am using an Nvidia Shield TV Console. Yes I've done a search on this but nothing refers to the issue I'm having, all searches just turn up how to setup rom collection browser itself. As always many thanks to all the vast knowledge people provide on this forum! You guys are awesome!
RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - ködi-zömbie - 2016-10-13
What I did is to setup all Emulator / Files / Folders manually in the config.xml file in userdata/addondata/rcb... folder.
You can backup this file and try to add all you need in a text editor.
Here how my GBA part looks like :
Code:
<RomCollection id="29" name="Game Boy Advance">
<useBuiltinEmulator>False</useBuiltinEmulator>
<gameclient />
<emulatorCmd>/system/bin/am</emulatorCmd>
<emulatorParams>start --user 0 -n com.androidemu.gba/.EmulatorActivity -a android.intent.action.VIEW -eu Uri "file://%rom%"</emulatorParams>
<romPath>your rompath/*.ZIP</romPath>
<romPath>your rompath/*.SGB</romPath>
<romPath>your rompath/*.GBA</romPath>
<romPath>your rompath/*.7z</romPath>
<saveStatePath />
<saveStateParams />
<mediaPath type="boxfront">path for covers../Nintendo/%GAME%-(NGBA)-front.*</mediaPath>
<preCmd />
<postCmd />
<useEmuSolo>False</useEmuSolo>

</RomCollection>Please any good python coder can help me ? I tried to compile pylzma.so library for android but its not working. I'll try again with standalone-toolchain but it would be much easier to change the python code in launcher.py to use p7z for android from this thread in XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856415&page=2
I become crazy....tried many cross-compilers for now and build with hash style sysv in qemu armel debian chroot. Nothing worked.
Anyone can include 7z decompress support for p7z in launcher.py ? Please......
RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - ctrim78 - 2016-10-14
ok so i was getting no where with trying to get this to work so i had to go to my last resort which was to do a "fresh start" on kodi and start fresh. I reinstalled rom collection browser and started just as i did when i first installed it. I went straight to trying to add "GAME BOY ADVANCE" as my first platform and when i did this message popped up saying "UNHANDLED EXCEPTION OCCURED DURING EXECUTION OF RCB: 'NONETYPE' OBJECT IS NOT ITERABLE SEE XBMC.LOG FOR DETAILS" does anyone have any clue what that means in english?

@kodi zombie.....i can't access these command lines since I'm using an nvidia shield tv. it doesn't give me root access to add ons.

all data for kodi is stored on internal or sdcard. no need to root it. its at Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi .... .kodi is hidden folder
Just use a file explorer with hidden files enabled like es file explorer 4.0.22. Its good and without ads.

Finally found a way to fix all my problems with RCB:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libretro/testing
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install retroarch* libretro*RE: [RELEASE] Rom Collection Browser - Browse and launch emulator game ROMs - 03397 - 2016-11-29
Hey guys...I have added successfully some windows games and everything were scapped ok. All the games have extension .lnk and .url(steam games)
When I start the games I see the black CMD window. Is there a way to hide this or not to be executed at all?

The CMD window is waiting until you finish playing to reopen RCB in Kodi again. If you close it by exit it will interupt your progs / games.
is it staying in the background or it open in front of your games ?

It is staying opened in front of Kodi. It will be good if it was minimized of behind kod.
I have kodi to be focused all the time..
