Launcher not working but emulationstation does

[scottb23]

I've tried both the System.Exec custom action, and the Launcher addon for my OSMC install, but neither works.

When I SSH in however, I can get emulationstation to run by executing 'emulationstation' from the command line, so we can see the install worked correctly.

When I try to run ./retropie.sh I get 'permission denied' and even after trying chmod -x the message persists.

same issue here. Executing 'emulationstation' in the terminal and executing "RetroPie/scripts/retropie.sh" is working just fine. Only the addon-launcher seems to be broken because it only restarts kodi.

Ultimately I gave up and used PINN to dual boot Kodi and RetroPie. It installs a tool to switch between the two OS’s so its a cleaner solution for keeping each side updated IMO.

the fix for this is to add "cd /home/osmc" to retropie.sh.. found here: https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/howto-retropie-and-osmc-retrosmc-retrogaming-on-osmc/6671/1454

Indeed, this is enough to have it working. Will #61 be integrated?
