This repo contains configurations and helper scripts for configuration a fresh Retropie installation to use the Retrotink Ultimate (http://www.retrotink.com/) for analog video output. Some of the configs in this repo were taken from https://github.com/Vykyan/retroTINK-setup.
The configurations in this repo have been modified based on my testing, and this is what I've gotten to work with my Toshiba CRT TV. I've included a theme that is based on the carbon-nometa built-in theme that omptizes some things for CRT's- this theme will be enabled automatically when the setup script is run.
- Install RetroPie image and enable SSH (See RetroPie docs)
- SSH into your pi and run the following:
git clone https://github.com/robbydyer/retropie-retrotink-setup.git
cd retropie-retrotink-setup
sudo ./setup.sh
sudo reboot
It is safe to run setup.sh repeatedly. Just be aware that any changes you might have made to any of the files installed from files/ will be overwritten with the defaults in the repository.
There are a few helper scripts I've added here
These scripts are all installed into /usr/local/bin by the setup script, so they can be called without a fully qualified path.
