Man! You can’t beat the support here. Although the CD-i stuff doesn’t pertain to me, Art Book is by far my favorite theme for my RPi. Always. Thanks again a million times @alphatoanant

Hi there! Not sure if this is something that people would find useful, but with my use case of RetroPie this is definitely a pain point. I tend to move my Pi between my office and the TV, meaning sometimes I use USB audio, and other times I use HDMI audio. This means that I'm having to change the ALSA config and either restart the Pi or reload ALSA every time I move location. While this is an awkward, but doable solution for someone who is familiar with Linux, it's probably not great for inexperienced users. I think it might be a good idea to add an audio configuration menu to RetroPie-Setup, which allows the user to select a default output device and automatically updates the ALSA config based on the user's preferences. This could also be added in EmulationStation to the RetroPie menu for easy access. I'm happy to work on this myself and submit a PR, but I wanted to get a feel for what the general opinion of this idea is first before I start work on it. Thanks!

https://retropie.org.uk/2020/04/retropie-4-6-released-with-raspberry-pi-4-support/ We are very pleased to announce RetroPie 4.6 with beta support for the Raspberry Pi 4. It’s been some time since we last updated our pre-built images. However development has been ongoing in the background, and a lot of changes have been made since the last release. Note that we update RetroPie constantly, and you can update your system at any time. We wanted to wait until we were happy with the Raspberry Pi 4 support before putting out some new images though, but RetroPie has been working on the Raspberry Pi 4 for some time for those wanting to manually install or try a weekly development image. You can see what emulators are available for our supported platforms thanks to a new stats module included in RetroPie – https://retropie.org.uk/stats/pkgflags/. For RetroPie 4.6 we have moved to Raspbian Buster as a base for our pre-built Raspberry Pi images. Raspbian Stretch is no longer supported by Raspberry Pi Trading Ltd. We will continue to support Stretch for a while longer, but will likely stop updating binaries for it later this year. We are marking the Raspberry Pi 4 image as beta for now – primarily as there are still some things to improve on, but most packages run well. Please do try it, and report any issues to our forum https://retropie.org.uk/forum/. If you are running a weekly Buster development build from https://files.retropie.org.uk/images/weekly/ you can just update within RetroPie-Setup – no need to start from a new image. Please see the changelog below for more information on the changes since RetroPie 4.5. You can download a 4.6 image from https://retropie.org.uk/download/. For first installs please follow the Installation Instructions. You can also install RetroPie on top of an existing Raspbian Buster set up, or on top of Ubuntu on a PC/Odroid-C1/C2/XU3/XU4. Links to the relevant instructions can be found on the Download area. If you want to support the project, donations are always appreciated and can be made on our Donation Page. The main developer Jools Wills also has a Patreon page up at https://www.patreon.com/retropie. We hope you enjoy this update, and wish everyone the best at these difficult times. Happy gaming x. Changes since 4.5 Raspberry Pi 4 support! Support is labelled as beta currently as there are still things to improve, but most emulators now run well. The RetroPie images are now based on Raspbian Buster - Stretch is no longer supported by Raspberry Pi (Trading) ltd. RetroPie will stop updating pre-built binaries for Stretch later in the year. Improvements to RetroPie packaging system and core RetroPie-Setup code so package state is remembered and binary updates will only be done if an updated binary is available.

Support for real CD ROM, with the ability to dump the disc image. Improved disk control system, with support for labeling disks in .m3u files. RetroAchievements support for PS1/Sega CD/PCEngine CD.
