ES-DE: Options for sorting your systems

ES-DE has a simple a set of built-in options for sorting your systems as well as a way for you to define your own custom sort order. In this video we'll walk through all of those options.
These options (including defining your own custom sort) work the same way across all platforms that ES-DE is available on.
Full written details are available in the user guide here: gitlab.com/es-de/emulationsta...
If you are interested in creating your own custom sorting, please check out the tool we made for that here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...
The first tab lists all the instructions to create your own, however if you have questions please feel free to post a comment below.

After testing all frontends that are out there, ES-DE is the one I keep coming back to. Best frontend, simple, clean, great themes.... Keep up the good work.

[@Flackon]

And rather importantly, cross platform!

[@KyleRuggles]

Thank you! Great guide! Will try in the morning lol.

Still waiting for your app to be released on Google Playstore. Cant wait to buy it

[@pipedream690]

I'd love it if you could add a retroachievements widget.

[@ES-DE_Frontend]

its on our roadmap to consider!

[@MrsHanhStoreTipsnSharing]

tks for sharing. By the way, does ES DE support run BGM (background music like Batocera/Emuelec)?

[@ES-DE_Frontend]

it doesn’t support background music yet, however it is in our roadmap to add - gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/blob/master/ROADMAP.md

[@MrsHanhStoreTipsnSharing]

@@ES-DE_Frontend it's good, hope it will be supported soon

Hello ES-DE
How did you put the Sega M2 bios on EmulationStation?
was it under android because I bought your APK and there is no Sega M2, M3 or Openbor emulator etc...
Thank you in advance for your help

[@ES-DE_Frontend]

Great question, I was running this demo on PC where Model 2 and Model 3 are supported emulators which is why they displayed. On Android I am not aware of an emulator that supports Model 2 and Model 3 so those systems will not show up on android due to that.
the full list of supported emulators on android can be found here: gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/blob/master/ANDROID.md?ref_type=heads#supported-game-systems

any idea why colecovision does not show up in my games? I can open it manually with retroarch using gamegear emulator but ES_DE for Android does not show that Colecovision even exists when I move through the systems. I have it working on my rgb30 (linux) and Rog Ally (windows) so I have the correct folders/roms and bios. It just does not show up on this android edition. Please help!

[@ES-DE_Frontend]

ES-DE is almost perfect, just needs to register playtime.

[@ES-DE_Frontend]
