General / Re: ANYWAY to get ShutDownPi in attract mode setup, exit me to command line?

@Patzfan
start AM > General > remove content of 'Exit Command'
So if you exit AM, then you're on bash

right now my EXIT button in the unified layout on the MAIN wheel with consoles, SHUTS ME DOWN which is what i like.
In attract mode setup there is a shutdown pi BUTTON on the wheel, i want to edit the .sh file to get me to commandline.

I have played with bezels but don't use them regularly. I think you need bezels that are made for your resolution. At the very least they would need to be for the correct aspect ratio.

@Patzfan - if you're using a 4:3 monitor why would you want bezels? That should be the native display for most retro gaming.

for maybe 20 games, 1942, pacman, donkeykong, tiger heli...etc

The screen saver I have now is low res, wanted to put a new one in there, I found a screen saver folder but nothing is in there. It seems to load the last snap it was on and those are 240p files

I want the exit button to shutdown pi not go to command line and it is doing that. What I need now is the command to get the SHUTDOWN BUTTON (NOT EXIT BUTTON) to get me to the command prompt for the shutownpi.sh file.
