This is on my old archos gamepad tablet, which is stuck on android 4.4.
It runs games up to ps1 just fine via retroarch, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I've tried uninstalling everything and starting again but the same thing happened.

Is the main app closing or is the emulator closing and going back to the main app?
If the former, please send me your account name to look for error reports in my server with that account name

Its completely shutting down, not just going back to the main page. I'll private message you my details.
Re: Retrox installs and runs fine but when a game selected it crashes
I checked for error reports coming from your device and I got some messages about out of memory errors coming from your device (Archos Gamepad2).
Try closing any unneeded app

Re: Retrox installs and runs fine but when a game selected it crashes
Tried loading after a reboot and the same thing happened.
Older versions worked great so it's something in a recent update that changed things. Is there any way I can use an older version without needing to update before using?

Also, what chance chd support on Dreamcast? I converted all my games to this format now.
Re: Retrox installs and runs fine but when a game selected it crashes
It's already supported, just make sure that your CHD files are v4: https://github.com/expo92/Tools-CHD

When that happens I always find that it is not the update that broke something, but the changes in the device between he updates that made RetroX start having problems, for example Android updates, storage full, or storage devices being removed or changed, among other things.
You can only use the latest RetroX and if there is a fix to be made in newer versions we need to find what is the fix about. For non trivial problems we can go this route: http://retrox.tv/debug

Hmm. Not sure whether mine are v4. All I know is they work on retroarch. Does that mean they're the right format?
I'll try and free up some space on my old archos and see if that helps.
Re: Retrox installs and runs fine but when a game selected it crashes
From what I can see in that page, Reicast standalone supports only v4, and the libretro core support v5. Right now RetroX is using the standalone version. Now, that will change in the "near" future to use the libretro core (flycast), so I wouldn't recommend you to change the format to all your library
