Hey
sudo chmod +x Kodi.sh

(With a capital K) looks like it worked. All running again now, so many, many thanks.

(When it first ran it went into serious low def, but on reboot now its fine again)

[coffeeking]

Try sudo chmod +x kodi.sh

Tried it, got no further
Here’s the results

Am I supposed to get some prompt telling me its worked?

[coffeeking]

OK, getting a bit further here now, but its still not working

I type

cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports

hit return

and I’m presented with
pi@retropie ~/RetroPie/roms/ports $

I then type
sudo chown pi:pi Kodi.sh

With a capital K on Kodi, hit return

And all that comes up is
pi@retropie ~/RetroPie/roms/ports $
(Same as above before)

What do I do now?
Having done that I tried rebooting, and running Kodi in Ports still says Permission denied

[coffeeking]

You could use your w/e file explorer and right click on it, click properties to check the permissions manually add (pi) to group and make sure X is checked.

Side Note : linux is strict(case sensetive) and that look like a capital K, try Kodi.sh

Sorry but I’m going to need a laymans terms / step by step of this please

Can anyone help any further please?

[coffeeking]

Thanks guys but this isnt helping me I’m afraid.

So I need to confirm EXACTLY what I need to do please?

[coffeeking]

Hi
So to confirm after pressing F4 to get out of the emulator I need to type

cd /

then hit return
then type the below line in its entirety

sudo chown pi:pi /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/kodi.sh

then hit return?

Hi
I must be doing something wrong herre as I’m getting the following message:

chown: cannot access ‘sudo chown pi:pi home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/kodi.sh’: No such file or directory

So I’m hitting F4 to get out of RetroPie/Emulation Station

Then Im presented with Uptime/Memory/Running Processes/IP Address/Temperature in red

then

pi@retropie ~$

in green

So I’m typing it in after this.

Is this NOT where I should be typing it in?
Can anyone advise in laymans terms what I need to do please?

[coffeeking]

Hi
Thanks for the response.
I’m sorry but I dont know what you mean?
Do I just need to type that into the system and it will fix it yeah?

Apologies for my dumbness.

[coffeeking]

Hi.
I have the .zip files yes (I did unzip them, but I thought that was what I had to do).

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Managing-ROMs

Seems incredibly complicated.

Is there not just a copy/paste onto USB stick way of doing this like with SNES, Megadrive, Atari 2600?

Sorry I’m really new to all this and I’m still learning.

Thanks
