Thought I'd post an update here. Super stoked its all going first pop after re-installing and doing everything as before EXCEPT updating packages. This time I'll be sure to clone my SD frequently before any major changes. Thanks for all the help fellas!

some cheats wont work youll have to go through lists for particular game and find ones that work and search for more codes noticed theres an input feature for this. For sonic the hedgehog start with 99 lives cheat worked fine, the first infinite lives cheat didn't but the next one in list did.

@BuZz Oh my god I very much apologizing for wasting your time. I kept getting confused with the 1 and 2. I now understand that I had the wrong model all along and will keep that in mind. I am not all that knowledgeable in it because I use it infrequently. I do thank you for the support and will remember to use this forum if I need information in the future.

@BuZz Thanks, it worked. I was just killed by a jackel.

OK, despite numerous current postings to the contrary on this subject, the udevRUN+="/path/to/executable" function has been deprecated at some point in favor of other, more reliable methods.

Both techniques make use of a daemon as you mentioned, but they can still be controlled with a modified udev rule that will launch the daemon when a specified device is added or removed. They require a little more work, but hopefully at least one of them will bear fruit.

Like this right?

Thanks so much!

That much I know, the problem is I have very little programing experience and don't know how to edit it,

Thanks

I haven't spent much time on this, so am curious to your thoughts. I use an HD HomeRun Prime right now with the official Kodi HomeRun prime addon (not sure the exact name) on my retropie setup. This works flawlessly for me for live tv and can find in Kodi video addons... I have not setup or even tried the PVR functionality yet. I assume by your post that the official HomeRun addon does not have PVR functions and that's why you want to use the unofficial? At work, so no way for me to check right now.

I think I got it.. I went in and made some settings changes and saved them on my profile. I noticed it happening only when I sign in, so I figured it was account related.

@gizmo98 said in Retropie version 4.0 - Reicast - Logic Error !:

Did you update RetroPie-Setup as well? Update to RC2 will only be complete if you update the script in first place.

yes done script & retropie setup. still no reicast-audio-omx.

A very likely culprit is a name mismatch between the bin and cue file. Open the cue file in your favorite editor and ensure the bin file name listed there matches the actual bin file name exactly, case and all. It is often the case that the two names do not match and the one in the cue file needs to be changed to match.

@BuZz
You taught me that retropie_packages.sh trick, then I tried

sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh retroarch configure

And it created a configs/all/retroarch.cfg.rp-dist file. I compared (diff) it with my all/retroarch.cfg and found some few differences (input_state_slot_increase, input_state_slot_decrease, input_exit_emulator, input_enable_hotkey, input_menu_toggle, and some keyboard mappings for player1), but I think these differences are because I configured some keyboard inputs in emulationstation.

And then I tried

sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh lr-fceumm configure

And it created that small default retroarch.cfg for NES. I think this trick very useful to get the default system specifics retroarch.cfg. Is it OK to use this command for this purpose? (I mean: "can I suggest this command to the users that ask for how to get the default retroarch.cfg?")

Thanks @edmaul69.

I don't play the ps3 often enough to spend the money on more controllers, and if I did buy more, I would probably end up syncing them to the Pi too so I can play 4 player games.

Retroarch by default sets controller priority to USB ports. Try putting the wired controller on the top left (Port 0) and the wireless adapter on the bottom left (port 1). That should make player one on the wireless player 2 and the wired controller player one. if that doesn't work for you , go to Retropie setup and to the xbox360 driver and set number players to 1. It defaults to 2 making the first USB port players 1 and 2 and the second USB port player 3

@Floob Thanks man! I actually found the correct install location and dropped my customs in. It works beautifully.
