ok. there is no cheaper way to get a few more USB devices onto the zero? I do not know why the first controller connected to the hub works, but the others don't. have I misconfigured retropie?!

@SA_Drone an option has been added the scraper module to scrape your metadata into rom folders as well

@challenger2010 Yeah and even on Dragons Lair 2 the overlays go away after you get past the first level. After that you only get the visual queues just like in DL1 and Space Ace.

@DM24 Are you running Win32DiskImager as Admin?

@caver01 Actually, What I needed was very simple. I had recently soft modded my 3ds but couldn't find anywhere on how to edit specific roms. I wanted to view vertical roms horizontally.

However in the future I may look into making a mame system with a RP3. Thanks for the help I'm trying this out today

@senkun thanks for the reply yes I have done this and the buttons work fine in emulationstation so then I ssh over some snes Roms started playing one and it keeps bring up the Retroach menu also the screen goes black for a few seconds somtimes

@dkloss28 said in audio question:

@kcc406 my pi3 will be here on thursday, taking amazon way to long to ship it out

got to get that prime :)

I installed Retropie 4.0 rc1 and DS4 goes a little better, it reacts fasters, but sometimes it continues pressing random buttons, so i decided to just use DS3 controllers, you have to pair it with an usb cable but it goes perfect, maybe the best controller for rasp. I think DS4 drivers have to be improved, just be patience.

@meleu well, the original controller i use, is a custom coded teensy in a gameboy project im making
I'm trying to set everything up, before i stick my pi zero in the case. the code i use for the gameboy custom controller, uses the d-pad as hat switch, and for some odd reason, the non lr emulators, wont detect my d-pad presses, but they will detect all my other buttons (a,b,select start). so, i decided to put that on hold, and look into the lr emulators, and started with gpsp... and thats where i came across the issue, with swapping controllers. initially, i spent days and hours, trying to get mame4all (non lr) to detect my dpad/hat switch and it wouldnt, and that mame4all runs games the fastest/smoothest for me.

@BuZz will do.

I would have 8 buttons (ABXYLR Start Select) plus joystick for each player.

I only use libretro cores so all extra functions like quit or menu are done by hotkeys as described at:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroArch-Configuration#default-joypad-hotkeys

@rbaker Thanks. I haven't got my Pi yet but if v4 is on the way, I might grab v3 before it gets removed.

@robthedude81

Which emulator are you having issues with?

@nazz2k said in Hotkey Issue:

I tried to look at the config for retroarch yet everything appeared normal.

Is this to mean that when you looked at your hotkey button assignments, they matched up to the known button codes of your controller? For example, did you compare the codes in the RetroArch config to the results of running jstest?

I really dont want to have to reflash my entire SD card again and set everything up yet again

One way to avoid this in the future is to make regular backups of your SD card, especially before any big changes are made. It has personally saved me from quite a few bad situations in the past. More on this can be found here if your interested.

@BuZz So I forced 720p mode using this:
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2984/retropie-no-longer-booting-pls-help/2

And now I get the RetroPie boot screen, but then everything goes blank. Not sure what's going on. The monitor keeps coming on (blank screen) then detecting no input and shutting down.

@Danik Good to know it!

Just for curiosity: what are the names showed by the jslist tool when your various controllers are connected? Are the names differents?
