Finally got around to test it and I can confirm it works!
Thanks

You might would consider upgrading to a bigger sized micro sd card. 8 gb is usually the minimum as the OS will require a good part of the available free size of the micro sd card to be be installed.

I would say an 8 gb or even better a 16 gb micro sd card should be sufficient.

I think I got it. I deleted this file and all is good:

@mitu Thanks mitu! Makes sense.

I decided to do some experimenting. I formatted the SD card and put a fresh 4.4 install on it. I updated the RetroPie scripts and then copied the splash screen to the appropriate directory on the SD card. There was nothing else done to the system.

Even with this configuration I can reproduce the problem although it appears to be a timing issue.

If I try to restart the system within 5 seconds of emulation station starting it always displays that error. This sometimes happens between 5 to 10 seconds as well. It can also happen (although not as often) if I begin the restart process (Start, Quit, Restart System, Really Restart?) but don't click "Really Restart?" right away. I can let the system sit for 20 or more seconds and when I do confirm the restart it will happen.

I need to re-image my SD card with my last backup to see if these times are extended by making changes in other areas.

Update...
Fixed it by changing default to hatari-use-hatai-cfg

Sudo nano emulators.cfg
default = "hatari-use-hatai-cfg"

@grant2258 That’s probably the best plan of action

@markyh444 great Post! 👍

I'm currently using the "Wolfanoz ArcadeOnly 32GB" image

Third party images are not supported here.

ok thanks

Hmm... I recently updated as well and am seeing that my overlays now stretch over onto the game display when they didn't used to. But I am not using the aspect ratio indexing at all.

My Frogger cfg for example:

input_overlay = /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/overlays/arcade-bezels/Final_Arcade_Frogger.cfg input_overlay_enable = true input_overlay_opacity = 0.900000 input_overlay_scale = 1.000000 video_shader_enable = "true" video_shader = "~/.config/retroarch/shaders/crt-pi-curvature-vertical.glslp"

@Mr_Fix_It Thanks sooo much for this man I've been pulling my hair out for days with these bloody controllers. :)

@Mondo-Gecko

I've never tried using Bluetooth controllers, but I'll give it a shot and check what happens. I don't have access to my Raspberry Pi until at least the end of next week though.

@t_mitch
I have had this happen to me before, with one game, it fastforwards for the first minute and then just stops. I don't know what causes it. I believe it was lr-mame

@TimeDoctor said in Control works inside ES, but not in-game:

None of this would be a problem if the ES input configuration were passed to retroarch properly.

My suspicion is that you've reset the RetroArch configuration and it doesn't look for the gamepad auto-configuration file in the folder where Emulationstation saves it (/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads).
