Edit or lock emulationStation Settings menu?

[skrathe]

Hi, So I'm building a simple bar-top for a pub and don't want patrons adjusting all the settings once it is configured. Is there any way to edit the settings menu so they can still do things like adjust volume and shutdown but cut out some of the more complicated settings? Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Hello Skrathe, I think the easiest way might be to simply set the config/boot files as read only.

Thank You customcarvin I didn't think of that. I will give it a try.

@digitalLumberjack This is more of a charity job than anything, but if you like IPA's Oregon has some of the best. I wouldn't have a problem shipping you a package. Prost!

Just kidding i implemented it yesterday. I wanted this feature too. Next beta.

I am stoked. You sir are a gentleman and a scholar.

I just got around to downloading the latest beta and installing it. Would this feature be in the .conf file? Just curious and figured I would post a pic of the project as of now. Thanks for all your work.

That works awesome. That is why I am so sorry for asking this. Would audio output in bartop mode be possible to put back in? I'm using an hdmi splinter so they can hang it on the wall and use it as a console. I still have IPA's!?

Do I understand it correctly: will this new feature also allow to change the order of the entries in the menu? That would be a neat feature. I quite often hit the Kodi entry inadvertedly and then can't exit that using the controller. And it would be nicer to have the shutdown entry at the top as that is the one I use most often now that everything is configured.

Thanks for the info. I'll try the "bartop" mode and see if that fits better.
