After some tries clearing my head i erased the interfaces file (auto lo iface etc...), rebooted and i got connected though ethernet.

Then i installed all the latest versions of everything.

I tried to connect to my WIFI and it dint, BUT it connected to my 5G WIFI!

Now i have internet through WIFI. Its working im not touching anything else!

Everything perfect! Time to configure controller and button mappings!

Great news there. Glad everything worked out.

Select runcommand from the RetroPie menu (or through configuration/tools in RetroPie-Setup). Ensure Launch menu is enabled. Check Launch menu joystick control. If joystick control is disabled, either enable it, or use a keyboard plugged into any USB port, instead of the gamepad, to access the launch menu.

u will have the answer ;)

Hi everyone! I have the same problem. Searching for a solution since many months. The joystick works fine under Windows 10. Only on reteopie it won't. Any thing else we can try?

@pmdci said in TheGamesDB down again, Scraper not working:

EDIT: This is because ScreenScraper no longer seems to work for unregistered users, which has been covered here.

That's not so much a "no longer..." issue as it is a "sometimes" issue. They said "at the moment" which was *checks calendar* a little over a year ago. screenscraper.fr occasionally blocks access to unregistered users due to heavy traffic. Sometimes it doesn't work for anybody. These periods last a few hours. It comes back up. It's not like they locked it down and never opened it back up again.

Got it working. This required a visit to Atari Age to understand what was going on.

There are some protections in A800 disks that lr-Atari800 can't get around but Altarri can. This was one of them, hence the odd error message. The emulator reads the disk, but it's not jumping over the sector of copy protection.

I was graciously given a "newer" version of CA that had the protections removed.

This is weird. New dongle arrived and inserted. No change. RetroPie not detecting, pairing or connecting anything. We're always told to disable onboard bluetooth. Just for the heck of it, I decided to ENABLE onboard bluetooth. Gee, what do you think happened? RetroPie detected the Wiimote, paired the Wiimote and connected the Wiimote. Tried a few reboots to make sure everything continued working and all is fine. If anyone has an explanation for that, I'd love to hear it. I'm just happy I can play Wii games again!

@batman

I had this problem so I feel your pain. Unfortunately, the scrape sources for games on the RetroPie can pull down videos that aren't encoded in a way that EmulationStation can run properly.

To get by this I use Skyscraper to download everything and build the Gameslist.xml file.

Then I go to: https://emumovies.com and get them from there. They are encoded perfectly and work great. They are a good resource for everything really.

I would recommend creating an account, then you can use their FTP server to download everything easily. - https://emumovies.com/ftpdetails/

Once you do that copy and replace your already downloaded videos with these. I literally just did all of this during this week for my MAME collection so I know it works and it will help you out.

It would be cool if the RetroPie could use them as a Scrape source.

@greenhawk84 said in Screen tearimg:

@dankcushions thank you for the info, your support here has been great over the years. So until kms is fully tested and an official update on Retropie is implemented, I will wait. Do you know if when this update drops, will the users have to go in and make sure all the videosnap .mp4 files are ready for the change ?

i don't use videos so can't answer this point. omxplayer will not work in kms as it relied on the old stack. what that means in terms of video capabilities i don't know.

@tmoe01 said in Dip Switch help:

Now my task to tackle will be figuring out how to flip the screen for player 2.

this part might involve dipswitches, other clones, or maybe the service menu. look for options to enable cocktail mode, etc.

Instructions are based on Ubuntu 16.04 but works just the same on newer versions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/
