Oh how much I hate those numbers in front of the rom's names! It's the main reason I never keep the crappy cards that come with the devices. (Oh, great video, thanks!!)
Thanks for watching! Yeah I agree, for a lot of us those stock cards just feel unorganized and gross Fine for more casual users who just want something pickup and play.
Thanks for making this because I have been looking for something like this because this is my first retro handheld and I want to learn this front end and get a better understanding than I would like to maybe put a different front end or more updated emulators.
How come when i add new roms, then add thumbnails inside images folder, using same name as the rom, new game works but theres no thumbnail? never had this issue with my other handhelds.
Hey dude, really enjoying your channel and videos. Really helpful. I’ve just got a RG 556 and a RG 405V. I’m hoping to have them setup this weekend. I’m having a bit of trouble with your Folder structure link. It’s showing as a broken link. I’ve tried through a couple of devices and browsers. Not sure if it’s just me though. Appreciate your help and all the best with the channel.
Hey, thanks for checking out the video. Sorry you are having an issue with the link. I made a new link to it so let me know if that works better, if not ill throw it up on a google drive or something.
@@PhyrexTechs Hey thanks for responding so soon. The link looks better than the last one but it seems to be getting stuck on the 3 ellipse's flashing. It doesn't seem to go any further than that. But hey its further than last time ;-) I'll give it another try when I get back home. Thanks again.
So you can add more emulators to the handheld itself by downloading them from the play store or side loading them. Now for the Anbernic Frontend I'm not sure if that is something you can do. If you want more customization like that I recommend checking out Daijisho or Emulation Station for Android (ES-DE)
Hey dude great vid. How do i get box art to be visible in the launcher for new roms that i have added? Ive just grabbed a couple for PS2 games and have updated box art thru aether but not sure how to make them visible with the frontend launcher ? Cheers dude
I might have mentioned it in the video but maybe not. I spent a good hour trying to get it to work and it would require way more time and effort than what its worth to get working. If would be a better use of your time to get one of the other frontends like Daijisho for free or Emulation station for 5$. I think the stock frontend is just a good starting point before moving on to one of these other frontends.

I cant start my 3ds game thru rglauncher after i update those citra apps. Do you know how to fix it? And if i try to format the rg556,will i get back the stock apps that first come in the box? I updated all the old apps to new one and this happen to me Also the retroarch unuseable after update to new one
Yeah, It seems like that RGlauncher was made for the exact version that come stock. I thought it was possible to add more however I have not found a way. Yes you can do a factory reset from the Android settings and it will go back to its Stock state with all the original apps. If you are wanting to use the new updated apps and want a good free frontend I would recommend Daijisho from the app store.
Hola , podría explicar como ponerle playproject a la anbernic rg556 ya que no cuenta con ello y a algunos juegos de android lo necesita Estaríamos muy agradecidos ¡¡¡ gracias
Question. My 405m has stock Frontend , but doesn’t show GameCube as a section . I can only play those in the dolphin app in android. Any way too add that to the front end or should I upgrade to gamma OS? Thanks !
Something I have noticed with the Stock frontend is that it has Gamecube and Wii combined as one system, because they both use Dolphin. Depending on the theme you are using you my see it show up and GC/Wii or just Wii. Gamma OS is great and I would recommend using it if that is something you want to spend the time to setup.

RG405/505 series switch to gammaOS.
RG556, go daijisho or es-de.
The stock software on these kinds of devices is always lacking.
I completely agree.
Lovely work man. Thanks
Thank you!

Very good. Thanks

Hi, I'm trying to setup retroarch and ES-DE but I'm having a lot of problems when I launch games. Could you suggest me a correct procedure? Thank you
How do you play Sega GameGear roms? There's no GG emulator present, and none of the other Sega emulators recognize GG ROMs.

Where are the apple instructions. I did not see them in the description.

I download daytone games for dreamcast but doesnt show at the frontend.. i can only see it in the reddream emulator.. any idea?
Did you check to see if the folder location of those games is set in the frontend? like seen here: 10:55
@@PhyrexTechs ok i will try
I can't get the Gamecube games to load into the Abernick front end. I got a N64 game to load. What am I doing wrong?
Just use ES-DE frontend, it's for more superior than Anbernic's crappy frontend

Can you add the Ryujinx or Sudachi - Nintendo Switch Emulator to the stock RG556 frontend?
As far as I know there is no easy way to add more systems to the stock frontend.

@@PhyrexTechs thank you ! I’ll dig around in the folders . Keep up the good content
Download for your folder structure file seems broken. Great video otherwise.
Hey thanks for letting me know. It should be fixed now. Also added a google drive link as a backup.
