What's different from Android
- Emulators: to choose an emulator for a system, open Settings › Systems and choose the
system. Enter the command that starts your emulator, with %ROM% where the game's file goes.
- Steam: Settings › Library › Import installed Steam games shows your installed Steam games
on Home. Add Clamshell to Steam adds Clamshell as a shortcut in Steam, so you can open it from Big Picture.
- Keys: Settings › Library › Import keys takes the same code or
.clamshell-keysfile as
Android (see Art and game info). You can also type keys straight into Settings › Library.
- RomM: sign in under Settings › Library with your server address, and a password or
pairing code. You don't need an add-on. Address away from home works the same as on Android.
- Fullscreen: press F11, or use Settings › Screens › Fullscreen window.
