I have just fixed the Fault

runcommand-onstart and runcommand-onend scripts
Runcommand can execute an user script before the game launching (runcommand-onstart.sh) and after exiting the emulator (runcommand-onend.sh). Both scripts must be placed at /opt/retropie/configs/all/.

These were the settings. I changed them to 1024 768
fbset -g 320 240 320 240 8
fbset -g 320 240 320 240 32

Not sure how these are changed, but hey :-)

@mitu

Thanks for all the help. I decided to just give it up and ordered an 8bitdo.

@obsolete maybe should have mentioned that :)

ok so that is surely your issue. you're using hdmi_safe=1, which forces

hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=4

which means 640x480. it may be that your TV puts borders on such a low resolution, and there's nothing you can do about that after the fact.

i would change hdmi_safe=0 and manually edit hdmi_group and mode to something sensible for your TV. probably:

hdmi_group=1 hdmi_mode=16

or

hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=82

btw config_hdmi_boost=9 does nothing on a pi4.

@mahalingam it was fixed, so if you're getting the issue open a new topic with some info.

I would like to add I dont feel retropie cashes in on this they could make a lot of money if they chose to but they dont you get the moral decent project vote no one could dispute that. You project clearly runs itself for it purpose and not for profit.

Im only talking in licensing terms in general

@ClassicGMR I have the same issue. I suspect it's user error!

Also, thanks :-)

@mitu said in runcommand verbose logging:

Since this is a RetroArch option, I guess you can enable it from the RetroArch settings or add it to its configuration file.

Thats what I did. But, as a shot in the dark I added verbose = "1" to the /opt/retropie/configs/all/runcommand.cfg file and that seems to work. Undocumented feature?

I've just had the exact same problem this morning and thought I was going mad!

This is actually a great feature as it provides further protection against guests inadvertantly entering it even after applying Kiosk mode.

Many thanks Mitu!

Makes sense.

Thanks!

i had something similar happen with my roku / TV .... LG pushed out some sortof update that didnt work well with roku.. i had to connect to another TV memorize the key strokes to set the resolution to a lower resolution. It worked fine after that ... dont know if i ever increased the resolution again.

Possibly adjust resolution lower and see if that resolves the problem.

Can you add more details about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first ?

@KRAKATOA you are a life saver. It worked to perfection. Thank you!!!!

@mitu ok thank you

@mitu - Ok, that sounds good, I appreciate the information.

Thanks!

@ShinraPie I hadn't seen that game, no - it does look a lot like what I remember from Abe's Oddissey, nice.

All those games are free to get, yes. Here are some of the links where you'll find most of the games. Others that may be older you'd have to search for individually:

Best.

EDIT: And apparently there's already a 2020 competition in the works here: https://yandex.ru/museum/yrgb-2020-en

@GreenHawk84 yeah that should work

@Peeteris said in Switching Emulation Station to the TurboGrafx-16 and Genesis logos doesn't work:

IS there any changes in newest Retropie that breaks this functionality?

No, nothing changed here. You're supposed to re-install one of the systems' emulators for the change to take effect.
