I love hyperspin Android and been using it for sometime now.

Everything else can be worked around without much hassle but there's a couple of issues that really impact the browsing experience for me.

1. Launching multiple emulators in one wheel is my top one

i dream of adding collections

2. Next is some way to have a favourites list without duplicating all my media

3. The holy grail is fixing the libretro intent so we can customise the CONFIGFILE path per system wheel

Actually, I'd say "All of the above". But I guess it needs prioritizing.

One of the things, I would put into the "Other" section: Has somebody looked into the possibility of using HTML5 instead of Flash? I'm no expert here, but I think HTML5 libraries might be more readily availble for Android than manually recoding an swf library. At least, that was what I read out of the Android Issues thread, you had to do the decoding yourself. Correct me, if I'm wrong there. Just wondering, if this is a viable option.

I would like to see the genres added to the android version so we do not have to duplicate Database / media / settings files. This can create a lot of duplication especially in the case of MAME !!!!

Thanks

Could you point me in the direction where I would find information on how to do that? Several of the mario themes have SWF files that will crash the nvidia shield.

The HTML5 thing is not supported afaik.

I done some info here for extracting the swf's to png to rebuild the theme.

Although if the images are flash animated it wont work because you get say marios arms as a seperate image

U can extract the images of the flash file and then join them 2gether via photoshop to use it as a png image for use in themes on android ....thatman has linked the tutorial on it....its a hit or miss with swf and android so I just go with themes all in png format....pain the azz cause I gotta go thru each one and change it from swf to png but worth it at the end for a nicer look
