RetroArch v1.2.2 Multisystem playlist (aka My favorites) You can add your own playlists to RetroArch. In playlists folder create a text file and rename it Multisystem.lpl Open it and write this text:

(path to roms folder) \Super Metroid - Phazon 0.3.smc
Phazon 0.3
(path to cores folder) \snes9x_next_libretro.dll
Snes9X Next

(path to roms folder) \SM64 StarRevenge Redone (Eng) (SM64 Hack by BroDute).zip
SM64 StarRevenge Redone
(path to cores folder) \mupen64plus_libretro.dll

(path to roms folder) \sfiii2.zip

(path to roms folder) \castlevania_-_symphony_of_the_night.cue
Symphony of the Nigth
(path to cores folder) \mednafen_psx_libretro.dll
Mednafen PSX
4|crc

(follow 4|crc with two empty lines)

You will need two icons, Multisystem.png and Multisystem_content.png with the size of 256x256px, place your icons in assets>xmb>monochrome>png folder.

This way you can load games from retroArch xmb playlist like: MAME, SM64 hacks, Super Metroid hacks, Goodset roms,PSX games and more.

Thanks!

Had been looking for custom playlists, but couldn’t add them before this. Just one tip.

With 2 blank lines after each game I had some listing problems in 1.2.2 (stable, Windows x64). If that happens, just leave one empty line after each entry.

[games folder]\Burning Rangers (USA) (DW0048).cue

[cores folder]\yabause_libretro.dll

[QUOTE=TrueMotion;26872]With 2 blank lines after each game I had some listing problems in 1.2.2 (stable, Windows x64). If that happens, just leave one empty line after each entry.[/QUOTE] You are right, I deleted one empty line after each game entry.

Thank you for your tip, TrueMotion.

Hm, does anyone know of a tool that allows to sort the contents of a custom Playlist? Even just a simple program that allows sorting of text blocks every 6 lines would be perfect.

What would the path to cores folder look like on iOS?

Edit: I found it in iFunBox.

Looks like:
