Added

  • Files (DinguxCommander): File manager tool, accessible via Tools menu. SDL2 build for aarch64, runs as Wayland client.
  • Music Player (MUS): Simple music player based on mpv. Plays MP3, FLAC, OGG and other formats from Roms/Music (MUS)/.
  • Extra emulators via MinUI extras (rgb30, self-contained with bundled cores):
    • Game Boy Advance (MGBA) — mGBA core
    • Super Game Boy (SGB)
    • Sega Game Gear (GG)
    • Sega Master System (SMS)
    • TurboGrafx-16 (PCE)

    • Pokémon mini (PKM)
    • Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SUPA)

Changed

  • Build script restructured: create_sd_image.sh replaces build_and_image.sh
  • Firmware binaries (SYSTEM, Image, DTB, ELFs) now live in firmware/ (gitignored)
  • MinUI base + extras consolidated into minui/ (gitignored); updating MinUI requires only replacing the contents of minui/
  • ROM/Bios directory structure driven entirely from minui/Roms/ and minui/Bios/ — no hardcoded lists in build script
  • Removed dev ROM bundling mechanism (no space on EMUELEC partition before first-boot resize)
