If I am reading correctly all you need is to get emulators designed for x86 processors, mednafen for ps1 maybe? Install it same as you would mame. RetroPie’s default emulators aren’t designed for pc

OK, so reflashing the install seems to have worked. I'm not sure if the original 64gb microsd was too large, or if something else I did messed things up, but this time around I wasn't asked a second time to initialize my controller settings, and I was able to get a few minutes of Super Mario World running with the controller functioning properly.

But, thanks for the help, no wonder nobody else was having these problems.

@buzz said in (Odroid C1+)EmulationStation fails to build:

LTS 18.04

I can't find one that supports the odroid c1+
I was installing what was recommended in the guide.
I think I'll try this one next.
ubuntu-16.04-minimal-odroid-c1-20160803.img.xz

Are you using an USB microSD card reader? Either way, the mounts on RetroPie are managed by usbmount, not by Kodi itself.

@mitu Thanks! I'll take a look into that tonight. Sounds like just what I'm looking for.

ok never mind i found my mistake. the file extension was wrong. i had ".BIN" and it has to be ".bin" then the .sbi file will work correctly.

Im done. Im not going to change anything on my raspberry anymore. I was in PIXEL and clicked "connect to server" there i got a window that said "connect to remote server" "Specify remote folder to connect". I guess i typed something wrong there cause now i dont have internet connection anymore. And i cannot find internet on the start panel. Also i get a white line about a cm wide on the left side of the screen in PIXEL

EDIT: After reset the PIXEL discovered networks, and i managed to get it back on. Also, i managed to remove the white line on the left side by right clicking on it and delete. I hope later versions of PIXEL will make it just as easy to acces a pc network as it is for PC to access it. I have searched the web and i am astonished that not more people are asking the same questions. There is alot of topics on how to remote access the pie though.
Again, thanks for not totally flaming a illiterate-pc noob full of questions :)

@guybrush said in New TV: Black frame | Undervoltage | Upgrade to Nespi + and 3B+ | Micro SD card:

Will I have problems with smooth gaming when storing the games on the NAS and would the Pi 3+ make a difference in that department?

I'd say the difference you'll see is negligible, since once the game/rom is loaded in the emulator, there's little network activity or file transfers over the network. One exception would be - maybe - CD based games where the game is loaded from the CD images (.iso/.bin/.chd). The network speed would help the loading times. But if you are already content with the Pi 3 and the current setup (ROMs on the NAS), it wouldn't make a noticeable upgrade.

I was following instructions to it. https://github.com/sselph/scraper

Rpi v2
$ wget https://github.com/sselph/scraper/releases/download/<release_name>/scraper_rpi2.zip
$ sudo unzip scraper_rpi2.zip scraper -d /usr/local/bin/

cd RetroPie
cd roms
ls (shows directory)
cd psx
scraper -thumb_only

It appears that thegamesdb.net isn't up. If you are sure it is use -skip_check to bypass this error.
No sources available (As I already know this was an issue some time ago)

I saw he posted 3 days ago
Thanks for the heads-up. It looks like it has changed. I'll convert the
code over this weekend.

So I'm going to do a bit of waiting and see.

@fishman I believe you would have to first quit Attract Mode and then type "emulationstation" at the command line. I don't know of any other way.

But there are many, many people here far more intelligent than I am about this sort of thing, so maybe someone else would know of a script or other method to do what you want to do.

@kerflug Read this topic on why this is not advisable and can cause problems.

Hi @mitu , not sure why, but it works now.

Will also run the apt-get -f install, just in case.

Thanks!

@mitu Thanks for all the help but there is still absolutely no difference.

The xbox 360 controller still does not work. I never thought it would be so hard to get a controller working with it.

@paulnmiller1 Yes, changing video driver to sdl2 in RetroPie Setup as suggested by @mitu worked immediately.

@thrash00

We need a little more information about what all you're using. The required information can be found at https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

@herb_fargus so maybe that's why it's not working. Will try your build and see if that works. Thanks
