Reset after selecting monitor index

Hello, Just wanted to say I’m pretty green to Lakka and Linux in general, so please excuse my ignorance, but I have set up Lakka on an old laptop for old school gaming. Everything is working smoothly, however as the title says I am having an issue with connecting the laptop to my TV.

I head to monitor index, I change it to 1 and it flickers and sets to (I assume) the laptop monitor. I change it to 2, and the screen shows the Lakka logo for a second and goes back to the main menu with the cores. How can I set up the HDMI?

Thanks in advance!

Can you try to get some retroarch log first ? You need to access Lakka command line interface by ssh or direct access.

In the log.txt, you should see which video_monitor_indexyou need to change to the retroarch.cfg file.
