ssh into your recalbox: root terminal access

cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc

export TERM=xterm

nano ~/.xinitrc

and the file will open and i will put this below in the file ?

Force Display Output 800x600

You can override the global configuration here

Here is the snes example

snes.core=snes9x_next

;snes.ratio=16/9
;snes.smooth=1
;snes.rewind=1
;snes.autosave=0
;snes.emulator=libretro
;snes.integerscale=0

If you do not want recalboxOS to generate the configuration for the emulator :

;snes.configfile=/path/to/my/configfile.cfg

Default cores for x86

snes.core=snes9x_next
gba.core=mgba
mame.core=mame078
nes.core=fceunext
n64.core=glide64mk2
psx.core=mednafen_psx_hw

NeoGeo emulator

You can use pifba or a libretro core (fba2x,libretro)

neogeo.emulator=libretro

If you set libretro as neogeo.emulator, the line below sets the retroarch core (fba,imame4all)

neogeo.core=fba

wiimotes

real wiimotes must not be paired with recalbox system so that they can work with the wii emulator

## set emulatedwiimotes to 1 to emulate wiimotes with standard pads
wii.emulatedwiimotes=0

Configurations generated by Recalbox

system.kblayout=us
system.timezone=Mexico/General
wii.autosave=1
wii.ratio=auto

@josklown You can get spanish help here / Puedes conseguir ayuda en español aquí:
https://forum.recalbox.com/category/44/recalbox-general

I think Substring doesn't speak spanish so, you can write it in english here or you can go to the spanish forum and create a new topic there

Substring

@tonificante i understand spanish much better than i speak it Reading it is ok, most of times.

@josklown you're using a laptop and expect hdmi signal on a TV, right ? Well, it's not always that easy to get it wto work. Can you make a support archive please ?
