In 2.0.10, it looks like a hint was added (SDL_HINT_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG_FILE) to point to a user chosen 'gamesdbcontroller.txt' file. It looks like PPSSPP doesn't use this mechanism to load the file, but it might affect how SDL2 works when the game controller API is initialized by the emulator.

I'll see if a recent source build for PPSSPP triggers this on a RPi, it could also be something that's changed in the emulator since the last binary build in RetroPie.

@icode You replied to a bunch of old topics and this is bad forum etiquette. To advertise your project, you should have opened a new topic under Ideas & Development and show your product, instead of spamming old - related - topics with it.

@Rion Already saw it. Thanks. We try to keep up on Piboy DMG going's on's. :)

We'll add this as an option in our config.txt.

@Firebird_WS6 thanks for digging into this. I figured there was something but I doubt I would have found it.

I use these cool devices on icode.com. They allow you to have up to 4 paddles or joysticks connected to you PC via usb. There is even a bluetooth version.

if anyone is still interested in this, check out these cool devices on icode.com. they allow you to have up to 4 joysticks and even if you connect only one, there are buttons on the device you can map to start/select/reset. There is even a bluetooth version.

I mean they work in a sense that retroarch loads them up and recognises them but there is the tradeoff that lr-desume & lr-desume2015 do appear to have slower frame rates, brief freezes at loading points and audio drop outs.

Whereas drastic is miles more stable and a higher compatibility, but won't have the libretro bells and whistles like achievements or overlays.

Honestly if achievements are a deal breaker for you I'd play on a more powerful setup. Or wait until the lr core of drastic is released, whenever that will be (I think the Dev's own forum said sometime 2020 but, you know, 2020 things)

@dgar The link I posted for verbose log has instructions on how to enable it.

Please add some more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Are the L2/R2 triggers working with jstest from the command line ? Exit EmulationStation, then run

jstest /dev/input/js0

and then test if your buttons/triggers are registering. Interrupt the test with Ctrl+C. If you have more than one gamepad connected, replace js0 with js1 or js2, depending on how many gamepads you have connected.

What particular keyboard shortcut are you trying out and it's not working ?

@Clyde said in Video Snaps Screen Saver not working with USB service:

So it shouldn't have anything to do with usbromservice, but it's good to hear that you could solve your problem.

It doesn't, and without any hint on the actual configuration (Pi mode, RPI version, etc.), we're just speculating here.

I have it on a Raspberi pi 4 with retro pie 4.6

@kitwick almost sounds like you might of removed the mapping for it. i know i did that a few times.

i do have to go in and set mine up on a new build im doing.
so ill poke around

I had issues with Pi4 wifi too. In my case I was noticing it when sending files over Samba from W10 or using FTP, and also scraping problems. I'd get constant disconnects and transfer speeds of around 200kb/s even when it would stay working.

I found mentions online of known issues where noise from the HDMI output can disrupt the wifi signal. Every instance I saw talked about said it was only over a certain resolution (1440 I think), but I decided to try disconnecting my 5" screen anyway, which runs 800x480, and as soon as I did that the speeds went up to around 3-5MB/s and the connection stays stable.

OMG I like to complicate my life ! Sorry for the inconvenience. I will read more the docs from now on. When I think about it... I learned a lot from my negligence. It can be enjoyable to look outside the box.

@Metal-Ghost said in Dreamcast .RAR Files and Proper Formatting:

Of course, that kinda' raises another question now for me: this particular file has BIN and CUE files....not sure how one would get these into .cdi or .gdi?

You don't need that, .cue/.bin files should work also.
