@b0ddah Just complementing:
Remember that there is a possibility to use external software, it is easier, we recommend:

@Zing Thank You for heading me into this. So I need to wait for the next release, where this bug is hopefully fixed. 🙂

@greger

What have I done wrong?

You are using a tutorial from 3 years ago that claims it only worked on Raspbian / RetroPie, at no time does the tutorial say it is compatible with Recalbox.

I'm not a developer, and I can't tell if the script is compatible or not, I can't test it, nor do I have enough technical knowledge to help you with that.

Maybe this will help you:

@metaller333 Unfortunately, other users have already reported this type of problem with kodi not starting on Rpi4 / black screen:

Some users have managed to make it work by starting the kodi and disconnecting and reconnecting the HDMI cable, but it is not a practical solution, nor does it work in all cases.

The next version of Recalbox will bring many improvements, I recommend waiting to test it with the next version.

Thank you.
Probably this is one of the reasons for poor perfomance of n64 in pi4.
And dreamcast have the same problem with the videomode.

Would be interesting for testing, that someone with a pi4 or rpi400 do the videomode change test with n64 and dreamcast to see if it works, checking always the final resolution in tv or monitor, and if works post the options used.

Hopefully the new version will be soon.

I resized it down to 800Mb and that completed the first boot successfully

Sorry, but this is not how it works: if the system did not create the SHARE partition, your night was not successful, probably the problem is the quality of your SD card, I recommend testing with another one.
You should not change the size of the main partitions, the only partition you can shrink is the SHARE partition if you want to use dual boot with another system. the partitions are the necessary size, there is no "needlessly left", the space is "reserved for updates / temporary files / etc", there is a reason, it is not an error.

@tdelios Yes, it is a bug that has already been reported, the developers are working on it, but there are no set dates, it is necessary to wait and, for now, update the gamelist by other methods when this happens.
