@ShootHere if you can narrow it down that would be good, but I'm guessing it's something to do with your setup as you're the only one so far that's mentioned it as an issue.

It's also possible it's due to sd corruption/or USB corruption, possible it was interrupted or something. Could be a myriad of things. Might also be worth trying diff methods of mounting the USB etc. If you do a full binary install it should repopulate the config if you don't have a backup and you can see if you can reproduce it.

@Josh-I even if you have a windows computer there are plenty of free tools available in order for you to install the sd image and access your raspberry pi over the network. its all described on the aformentioned installation page.

for the most part you shouldnt have a problem with the systems you mentioned. mame requires a specific romset depending on the emulator but you can easily rebuild your sets with clrmamepro to be compatible. Its all explained clearly in the wiki

There is also a new Version of Retropie (3.8) Is the problem Fixed there ? Than i could just download it and replace my 3.7 v

they're explained here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Managing-ROMs#step-5--rebuild-a-rom-set

Ha ok, I don't read that ^^
I just change the audioplugin and it's working fine. (and no problem with glide ^^)

Thanks you very much :)

I have finally completed the how-to guide on compiling and installing the FFmpeg suite, which allows for recording from libretro-core RetroPie emulators.

I'm starting work on part 2, which details how to enable the recording features within RetroArch, and how to modify the various Emulation Station scripts to add the option launch a given emulator with the recording option enabled, as well as how create configuration files to change how ffmpeg is used.

@floob : Thanks ! I did this (a separate config per game for vertical games). It does the job as I have a moderate number of games :)

For anyone who has the same issue:

I have resolved this issue for myself. I followed the manual install process ( at https://github.com/recalbox/mk_arcade_joystick_rpi ) but instead of step 2 (install linux headers), run:

sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers

This will install a headers package, however because I had been messing around I had to remove the old header files first, if you get a message about "file already in another package linux-headers-4.xxx.xxx" then run

sudo apt-get remove linux-headers-4.xx.xx

then rerun

sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers

once this has completed successfully, carry on with step 3a.

@matalog

What i am looking to do is have my wii u pro controller use different x,y,a,b button number assignments from my ps3 pads - because they are numbered differently on the devices - both on the NES.

Did you read through the First Installation instructions ? It's listed there - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation (start+select) - but some non libretro emulators may differ - details are all on the wiki

I have more questions.

Thank you that answers my question clearly.Very much appreciated

@NySoCalFool Disk images should be in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/c64...

Hi, yes i know i can access it via samba but transfer of the files via that are really slow on my network, hence wanting to do directly.
Backing up as an image is of no use since I wouldn't be able to restore it without wiping all of the new image that I have to write to the disc with the new build on it.

I'm using FUSE-ext2 for Mac and have now mounted the drive and am now copying across.

thanks anyway.

It was a zip dependency not in the install script. Install zip manually with

sudo apt-get install zip

@Wolfman100 said in RetroArch Config Confusion and Issues:

ha..also a 'hear hear' for that!as I mentioned though,shouldn't I be able to simply delete the config files for PSX I changed and it'll revert to default 'global ' settings?

I noticed when I (re)install a core using retropie_setup, it creates a retroarch.cfg.rp-dist in the respective config directory. You can use it to "restore factory settings".
;-)

Handy-Dandy Indeed!

@opensourcefan
I managed to get the audio out by the 3.5mm jack so that not sound in retropie menu or even in the game . but if I do the terminal " aplay Front_Center.wav " it will give sound. If you see this alt text . You can see that the sound is 0% . always put 100 % but when I see this again at 0%. I know this not the record definition . It will be that I can help. I am using a 5inch LCD to be able to make a "game station to take wherever I see it . so the sound and me to give this a lot of work . help me
