Hi RetroFe community,
Im excited to share a personal project Ive been working on: RetroFeVLC, a fork of the awesome RetroFe frontend. This fork replaces the Gstreamer media library with VLC for improved media handling, and its built to run on Windows OS. Im grateful for the RetroFe project and its open-source spirit that made this possible.
RetroFeVLC is now released, and it has a dedicated Discord server for support and discussions. You can find more details, in this YouTube video: https://youtu.be/-SRJbFsvsSY
Key addons included:
- Search: Navigate large game collections with ease
- Menu Manager: Streamlined menu customization
- MetaData-Regenerator: Automatic metadata updates
- KioskMode: Secure setups with admin password
If the RetroFe devs are open to it, Id be happy to share the RetroFeVLC code everything is available via the Discord server. Id love to get feedback from the community and contribute back if there's interest. Feel free to check out the video or join the Discord for more info!
Thanks again to the RetroFe team and this amazing community for the inspiration.
Best,
RFSVIEIRA
