I've been trying to install this on my Sony Bravia X900H with Android TV built in, but it keeps saying "app not installed." What should I do?

Does the TV let you use the play store? Are you able to side load the Launchbox app as that isn't available through the play store? If you're able to install Retroarch but not Launchbox you could try another front end called Dig.

I don't understand because I downloaded retroarch and launchbox set up every correctly just like the video but when I click play it won't play and if I turn off extract zip file and I click play it opens retroarch but the screens black? I've been struggling for months I still can't figure it out

Try extracting the files from the zip file and putting those in the rom folder. Maybe Retroarch is having problems extracting them.

I have tried it on Amazon fire tv cube and it’s buggy. Wish they could improve the launch box with either retro arch already installed or emulator’s included

Most of the front ends rely on you installing stuff behind the scenes. They really only provide an easy means to start the right app and game.

Batocera, is just too much to put on android, so is Launchbox (and RetroArch) the best there is for a game rom collection? Im sure different front ends have different pros and cons , I wish Retrobat could run on Android I don't think it can but I'm checking on it..

@BytesNBits

I think almost all of the front ends use RetroArch as the actual emulation engine so a lot of it's really down to personal preference which one you use.

This is the great invention simple and easy.. can you please let me know from where and which site that I get the games of each consoles and BIOS files ?

@BytesNBits

Hi. With the setup I used you do need to use the reboot command each time. The other option would be to burn the Eluelec etc directly onto the internal hard drive. I didn't do this as I didn't want to lock my system into the emulator setup. If you follow the instruction on the emulator front end pages they should walk you through the process.

I might have missed it, but is there a reason to use launchbox instead of just running games directly through retroarch?

Launchbox just gives you a nicer interface to run the games from. Images, preview videos etc.

@restezen

@BytesNBits Thanks for the reply! I've been using launchbox for about a week now, and I actually find it to be very clunky compared to just using retroarch. Especially since I have to use retroarch to customize the different core settings and controls, anyway. And unless you get launchbox premium, the interface isn't that much more visually appealing and you can't even use a controller to navigate. And it looks like you can even get custom themes for retroarch that would rival the themes you can get with premium launchbox. So, I'm still looking for an advantage to using launchbox, and the only one I have found so far seems to be if you are using multiple standalone emulators in addition to retroarch. So, for that reason alone, I'll continue to use launchbox, haha!

anyone else get a "parse error" when installing launch box to their android box? I was thinking maybe i needed to allow installation from unknown sources but it was already on. Did I install a corrupted file?

Launchbox needs a minimum version of Android 7 to work but 10 or above is best. Make sure you're system is the correct version.

Hi. I don't know! I haven't got four controllers to try it out. You'll need a USB hub if they are plug in units. Android does support multiple controllers so it should work. RetroArch certainly has a settings screen that suggests it can use them.

If the system can boot into Android you can install LaunchBox. The systems you can emulate will depend on the processing power of the device. Most will cope with the 8 bit consoles at the very least.
