FYI this has been possible since February 2025, but I have not seen this mentioned anywhere. Note: you do need all BIOS (both DS and DSi) + NAND files for this to work. How to do it: 1) Create a DSiWare subfolder in your DS games folder (or anywhere else really) and move all DSiWare games there 2) Copy 1 normal DS game and put it into your DSiWare folder (so you can access Quick Menu) 3) Load the normal DS game from your DSiWare folder. Once the game boots, go to the Quick Menu > Core Options > System and change Console Mode to DSi (experimental) NOTE: If you never successfully booted a DSiWare game before in Native Mode, I would also suggest changing Boot Mode to Native to ensure the core sees all your BIOS/NAND files and can load DSiWare games to NAND as shown in this tutorial. This is the previous way we all had to play DSiWare in Retroarch, but if you can't do that properly, Retroarch will crash in Direct Boot Mode and you won't be able to get back into Quick Settings without manually editing a .cfg file. 4) Now choose Close Content in Quick Menu and Load Content with a DSiWare game in your DSiWare folder. If you did everything in Step 3 correctly, you should see the DSi boot menu and the game should be loaded in NAND (the gift box icon). 5) Once you can boot a DSiWare game the 'old' way in the previous steps, change Boot Mode to Direct and restart Retroarch from Quick Menu. The DSiWare game should now direct-boot automatically! 6) Lastly, after you've achieved the previous step, go back to Quick Menu after the DSiWare game has direct-booted, and choose Core Options > Manage Core Options > Save Content Directory Options You should now be able to direct boot all DSiWare games in your DSiWare folder, AND your normal DS games in your normal DS folder without having to change any settings ever again. After checking that this all works, you can delete the normal DS game from the DSiWare folder. Unfortunately there are no DSiWare videos at EmuMovies. I personally use Stacher to make my own from existing YouTube gameplay videos.

Some loving for the Tandy TRS-80
nonstatik replied to MarkRMWalker's topic in Collections and Builds
Thanks a lot, I took advantage of that! For some reason I can only get DMK files to load in TRS80GP, the DSK files just hang. Is there an extra command I need to load DSK? -
Command Line to Target a Specific Retroarch Config File?
nonstatik replied to fromlostdays's topic in Noobs
Same problem here, my Atari 800 roms are in a single directory, and my 5200 roms are in a different single directory. 'Save Content Directory Override' does not currently work, RA will just keep the last system setting regardless. Maybe this is either a core bug or RA bug? EDIT: solved! The solution was 'Save Content Directory Options', not 'Save Content Directory Override' -

I used the VLC compressor for this. Some starting settings can be found here: https://lifehacker.com/how-to-fix-movies-that-are-really-quiet-then-really-lo-5920290 Mine are quite different because I try to maintain a consistent volume between Big Box, Spotify & Kodi. (also running a system-wide multiband compressor on top).

nonstatik started following Using STEAM database as source for metadata/media scraping and Webm issues
-
Bringing this topic back from the dead: I'm having an issue where LB will not autoplay WebM files. I am using VLC as the player (+ have k-lite installed). If I doubleclick the 'video area' in LB, the video will launch fine with VLC externally. Renaming the file to .mp4 fixes the issue, but I'd prefer not to take this extra step every time I scrape a WebM video! Is there some way to solve this without having to rename the file?

Using STEAM database as source for metadata/media scraping
nonstatik replied to Snayperskaya's topic in Features
I would also love this feature. I just discovered the Steam Scraper plugin, which can help do this manually. However, it would be better if this functionality was somehow integrated into Launchbox's auto scraper.- 1 reply

Add To Games DB
nonstatik replied to UnderwoodNC's topic in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)
I was having the same issue, which is what prompted me to comment here. I'm a bit confused. If the context menu only says "add new images to", are we supposed to choose that if we only change something else? I mainly downloaded this plugin to add additional genres/max player info without having to deal with the db website. -
Add To Games DB
nonstatik replied to UnderwoodNC's topic in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)
Friendly bump wondering if this will be updated for current builds? -
Just a quick thanks for making this theme, it's basically everything I could ever want! I downloaded a few themes from the new Theme Manager but I love this one so much, I didn't even bother checking out the others. Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to make this theme what it is! Looking forward to the update when it reaches the Theme Manager.

Kodi addon for LaunchBox
nonstatik replied to CoinTos's topic in Third-Party Applications and Plugins (Released)
Update: I removed the Cortana search bar and it's much better now! You only see a shorter flash when first launching the add-on. Before, you would see the longer line flash on three occasions: 1) launching add-on before startup video 2) between startup video and Big Box launch 3) after Big Box exit, before Kodi relaunch Now it's only seen the first time, and less visible. I think this is as good as it will get. -
Kodi addon for LaunchBox

It's still an improvement from before, thanks again. Taskbar was already set to black, but yeah I'll switch to regular Kodi if I get too annoyed by it. -

Cursor issue fixed! Taskbar flash still exists, but if I understand correctly, you didn't change anything there. -

Understood, thanks so much for your contribution! If I get bothered enough by the look, I'll switch from UWA to the normal install.
