How to install ES-DE v1.0 on Linux (Kubuntu)
why would alt tabbing or closing a game cause a black screen for es-de?
sorry may we have more details?
Really helpful, thank you.
ES-DE Frontend please answer. I scraped over 1040 games, it look a while but its done now. However each games I see shows, screenshot, box art, cartridge and title just like yours at 4:42. How do i change this to just show the box art, no catridge, no screenshot, just the box art. Also if i do change it to just boxart for all 1040, will it go through all 1040 games and scrape all over again because that took like 3 hours lol
the theme you are using will determine what shows up as the primary artwork - so please check what theme you are using and see if it supports displaying the art you are wanting to display. you will not need to scrape again.
@@ES-DE_Frontendthe thing is most of the themes are showing it like that. But for example on the Noir theme it used to just show me the box art, now its showing box art, cartridge, screenshot and title. I just want the boxart is there something i gotta turn off to just show box art?
i did try sorting on ES-DE android version - but it didnt work
please join our discord we may be able to help
@ES-DE Frontend it is possible to replace the manual for walkthrough guides ?
yes you can replace the pdf manually to change it to whatever you like
Any chance of explaining how to use the other emulators eg Saturn only has the beetle emulator yet there are 4 others but there is a config file at the end of the new selected emulator and it says am I sure this content is installed? I boot n the games won’t load im on a super console x pro 5
are you asking how to select alternative emulators for a given system? open the main menu and go to other settings you’ll see a menu item for alternative emulators and you can change the default there
@ I thankyou and I have done that but it will let me change the emulator but there is a settings symbol at the side of new emulator and it asks me if I’m sure it’s installed and it is it’s the kin hank super console pro x 5 not a pc then nothing loads it’s ok I will figure it at some point thankyou
Hello! Is there a way to allow the device to go to sleep if ES-DE is left open? ES-DE seems to override the Android's system sleep setting..
pressung the power button to sleep will work. otherwise es-de acts similarly to an android game or video app.
@@ES-DE_Frontend thanks! I was hoping there was a hidden setting. Perhaps you guys could add a feature to disable that in the future, as Android devices won't typically want to stay on.
How can I use both storage (Internal & external) on Retroid Pocket 4 pro (or any other devices) on ES-DE launcher? Is it possible?
our android FAQ at es-de.org has details on how to accomplish this
When I want to paste the Tile ID i dont have the Text editor option. I have to create a new folder inside the .psvita folder. Do I have different version of solid explorer?
sorry, i am not sure on solid explorer differences.
i fixed it but its a bit weird so get Your SD card out and put it inside the pc go to your rom folder in the pc then you need to create the same folder but don't create a normal folder create (a text file) afterwards open the text file and put your game code like in the video and then save.(afterwards the name of your original folder will change to Muramasa Rebirth.psvita.txt) and its bad so change the name back to its original name. Muramasa Rebirth.psvita enter the SD card back and that's it you good to go
How to change it back? It keeps becoming .text for me, and the rename option does not even show the .text@@ADHTS-c2l
Can you add a czech lunguage? Pls
please join our discord if you are interested and able to help us add that language
The others files there you have inside the path "Roms/psvita" game_title.psvita amount 9bytes .... what is? first of all, in which folder should the PSVITA games be installed? Second, I created the blank text files by renaming them with the game ID names, but no games launch. What am I doing wrong? Obviously straight from Vita3k, the games work great.
folder is psvita / make sure your text files do not have any spaces or new lines in them
I have my RP4 Pro all set up perfectly besides one thing, I cannot get PPSSPP to launch the games from ES-DE. They just black screen, they launch fine from PPSSPP by itself. What am I doing wrong here?
make sure to open ppsspp and browse to. your psp folder / that will set permissions so that es-de can open games
@ES-DE_Frontend actually I need to correct myself, it's all the standalone emulators, NetherSX2, Duckstation, MelonDS, Dolphin and PPSSPP. I have the games running in the respective emulators, when I try launching them from the ES-DE library they all just black screen on the emulator. This happened when I removed the extra folders I had and made the game folders correct to the system like ES-DE likes them then I pointed all the emulators to the correct folders again and checked if they played and they do. I might just need to factory reset my RP4 Pro after I back up the downloaded media and start over.
This method will not work for me. ES does not see the .psvita file with the title ID. No other lines or spaces are in the file.
same problem I have... if I put a Game_title.psvita file ES-DE creates an .xml with the list of games, but by renaming them with the game ID, it rescans the folder at startup and no longer sees any games.. . Obviously.
Solved. The Game_title.psvita text file must be opened, write the game ID number inside it, then save, exit and restart ES-DE. Close you will see that it will work.
thank you
Is there a way to add that cool background music to the Android ES-DE that the Batocera/Knulli builds have?
not yet but its on our backlog
@ES-DE_Frontend Awesome, thank you!
Are you able to display a combination of video and still images for the screensaver? Like if I were to have a custom directory with images and videos would the screensaver play both?
no sorry its either images or video alone
Do you have any plains to make this compatible with Android TVs? I have a TV box with Android12 and an Android TV with Android11. APK can't be installed on them. Thanks in advance!

Has anyone gotten this to work on Mac? I'm fairly sure I've followed the instructions properly, installed the games on vita3k, created the .psvita files with their respective title ids (no spaces or line breaks) and placed them in the appropriate roms folder, and they show up in ES-DE but won't launch as it can't find the emulator. I've made sure the emulator is in the correct location as per the es_find_rules.xml, and checked that the games are working in vita3k. Does anyone have any idea what I'm missing? Not sure if it's relevant but when double clicking the .psvita files themselves, they don't link to vita3k as it doesn't read the file type. Any advice is appreciated!
sorry we dont have direct experience for this set up on a mac. it could be an issue with our find rules but not sure. please join our discord and we can try to help there.

How would I add the sorting metadata for a custom system? Would I have to add it in the xml and custom sort everything else? edit: Also curious if it's possible to access the sorting metadata for themes in order to add system release year to the systems view
you can use the custom sorting method mentioned and apply and custom sort preferred through that method

Can you please tell me what I’m doing wrong? I have PNG cover art files named exactly the same as my WAD roms (WiiWare) in the Wii folder inside Downloaded Media but the cover art still won’t show up on ES-DE after refreshing or restarting. These were originally JPG files but I renamed the extensions to “PNG”, instead of converting them. Could that be why?
please provide more info about your folder structure and filenames

yup thats the one

Danke dir für deiner Arbeit. Sehr verständlich 👍🏻
how did you even add psvita to ES-DE? i dont even see an option for PSVita in the list
there is a folder called psvita in /ROMs (or you can that folder if it doesnt exist). then install the games in vita3k and then follow the instructions in this video to create shortcuts for each game.
mine only show black screen. retroarch or plus version with correctly core installed... cli set nothing works. any idea ? edit: works great with apk from retroarch website. never got it work with appstore apps... doesn't know why. this is the solution from future ask
yes agreed the direct download for RA on android is the only version we recommend for that platform. play store version is outdated.
@ES-DE_Frontend thx. Works fine
Hi dear, i did the same for rog ally x and still getting black screen, it is killing me
black screen on boot? if so please make sure you have your cores downloaded in RA
@ES-DE_Frontend no dear black screen when quit a game launched from emulation station , then when just quit the game to navigate the station games menu , nope it is black although i hear the game sounds, I did exactly as u said but no use and I am starting to pull my hair out :) , to know I am using rog ally x and emudeck is installed on SD microcard not the main harde drive of the device like steam is ...
Pls Help ?
sorry emudeck is a custom setup that is maintained by that team. you will first need to check with the emudeck team as they may have implemented customizations that are causing what you are seeing.
When I go on the app I can’t see my vita games and have everything set up
can you show the proper closing for other emu's so it goes back to ES-DE ? Thank you also.. the Home button, I can't set it for a Hotkey.. since i get the popup for "home" . can that be changed somehow?
which other emulators would be most helpful to see?
@@ES-DE_Frontend Cemu, Vita3d, Nitro, duckstation, N64
Thanks for the great video! Quick question. What does the option "save non-scraped roms into file" do? And why do you specifically turn it off?
it creates a separate text file that stores the name of files that were not scraped. i turn it off because i don’t use it as part of my set up.
@@ES-DE_Frontend thank you! Games that weren't scraped because there was no data in the database? Or games that you skipped? Do you know if anyone has a use for this?
hi! im having problems displaying the screensaver on the new update. made a post on reddit and seems others are getting the same issue. when in video mode, screen is dimmed, and in slideshow, completely black. only thing i changed on the update was language to pt-br for as long as i remember.
its possible this may be related to case insensitivity. we have a fix for that coming in the next version soon
@@ES-DE_Frontend oh nice, ill be waiting then! thanks
Is there a reason as to why after I connect the games to ES-DE they won't launch? They launch in the app but not ES-DE.
would need more info about your set up to be able to help
@@ES-DE_Frontend I figured it out. Using the same folder app you have, created the files and pasted the id in them. Only to find out that it pasted to text on the second line. It's resolved now but thank you for trying to help a random person on the net!
can this be applied foe the ES-DE from android as well?
yes it can! the good news is the output from this process is universally useable across all es-de platforms (the xml and media files work the same across all es-de platforms)
