    For anyone that is having problems getting this to work, here's what fixed it for me. Under Settings > User Interface > Appearance, there's an option for Horizontal Animation. I had this turned off. Turning it on made dynamic backgrounds start working.

    Do a video on how to delete the system use storage because my systems use storage is taking up 9 GB of my total storage and I don't know how to delete it and use my 9 GB

    • @NCC-0000
      @NCC-0000 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @Atom2000 It is correct, in a 256 GB SD the data loss is huge, like 3 GB of games had 9 GB of use in the SD2Vita.
      The proper and only way to format the SD Card is with that 64kb cluster and not in automatic

    I followed everything to the letter, and the background image showed up, but the images of the consoles shown in the previews don't appear on the left side, even after changing what type of thumbnail shows in the User Interface settings. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi James, am having trouble getting my custom image to be the new background. I followed all your steps, including the correct file format and size. Edited the config as instructed, but it still didn't show. And can't find it either. On a older version of Retroarch I managed to do it first time with no problem

    Hi Tech James,
    I know this is probably not in relevance for this video, but I decided I would comment anyway in hopes of you reading this.
    I have an Enso PS Vita, on 3.65. I want to update it so I can start on 3.73 and downgrade using Modoru 2.1. If I update using Safe Mode, will Enso brick my PS Vita?
    Also, in my system, I have a memory card which cannot be read. However, the PS Vita can tell that the memory card has been inserted, but it won't read it, meaning I cannot use Content Manager. What do I do to fix this problem? Everytime I format it my console restarts, then it says it needs to format again.

    I've completely messed up my ps vita, so basically I deleted a folder to get more storage on my vita and it corrupted all the hacks to I restored it and now I can't hack it either because when I connect the ps vita to my computer, it comes up but there is nothing in it. I think this happened because I deleted the files of the memory card when I switched to sd2vita and when I try to copy the files back into the memory card, it just says that the device was not found.😭😭 I recently hacked my vita aswell and now it's completely fucked

    I didn't want those Reddit themes so I just went with my own custom backgrounds. I made sure they were the right size and format, put them in the correct folder but Retroarch doesn't recognise them? They are accessible via Vita Shell though.
