[Solved] retroarch-standalone

Hi Everyone,

I know it's against the standalone definition, but is there a way to run the NoMachine with retroarch-standalone ? I want to record a presentation video using OBS Studio on my main computer...

etc/NX/nxserver --version
NoMachine - Version 8.13.1

/etc/NX/nxserver --status
NX> 111 New connections to NoMachine server are enabled.
NX> 161 Enabled service: nxserver.
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxnode.
NX> 162 Disabled service: nxd.

retroarch -V
RetroArch - Frontend for libretro
Version: 1.19.1 (Git 0792144fe3) Jun 16 2024
Compiler: GCC (14.1.1) 64-bit

pacman -Qm | grep retroarch
retroarch-standalone-service 3-1

Thank you

Re: [Solved] retroarch-standalone

I somewhat struggle with an executeable installed into /etc as its usually reserved for configs
if at all the binaries shoukd be installed in /usr or /opt

Re: [Solved] retroarch-standalone

According to the following post, the issue is not with the standalone version of Retroarch.

https://forum.nomachine.com/topic/nxd-d … -restart-2

The issue comes from the way nxserver is compiled.

### BUILD OPTIONS
# Set to y to enable nomachine service autostart
_autoservice=n
# Set to y to enable firewall autorules
_autofirewall=n
### END BUILD OPTIONS

The value _autoservice should be set to y

The quick fix instead of recompiling is to run sudo /etc/NX/nxserver --startmode nxd automatic

It fixed my issue

Re: [Solved] retroarch-standalone
