Description
I am talking about Android version, but other would be nice too. Would be nice to have access to network folders like it's on RetroPie/Batocera, etc. I have Synology NAS and storing there terabytes of ROMs, however RetroArch on my FireTV stick (Android) I am not able to connect it. Thank you so much for your great work!
