Hello, are you sure that emulator have binded "right key" ? I mean, if emulator doing something when you press right arrow on keyboard?

@retrocraze you may try to set the resolution you want (smaller than your tv native resolution) in the config.txt file and, in your tv video aspect options menu, set "original" or something similar, depending on your tv brand.

I'd use those torrents.

I just changed the values in the config file so that the display fits my telvision perfectly. Then when I started a playstation game, I noticed the mouse pointer is on my screen too. I went to google to find out how to get it off, then saw this post.

I do not know the reason the other people that posted had this happen. But I only see the mouse pointer when I use the sdl12 Video driver for playstation games. Using this driver, with the enhanced resolution and interlacing options from the Quick Menu, make Gran Turismo look amazing.

The mouse is actually present on the output for everyones display who uses this video driver. I couldn't see it before I shrunk the values of the top/bottom/left/right for the overscan in the config.txt file.

Lakka has an option to turn the mouse on or off. I don't know, but maybe it is the same option being enabled in retroarch running the pcsx-rearmed core for RetroPie.

Out of the box, no. But with such a cool case, and some effort, everything is possible!
The best approach would depend on the hardware you find inside.

If you could 'read' the state of each of the seven buttons, you can use the GPIO pins to read out the current state, and hook up a script to act on that.
Depending on your coding skills, you could brew up your own EmulationStation to accept specific system.cfg files, depending on what button is pressed, and killing it when a state-change is detected.

On the other hand, it might be much easier to forego the latching buttons, and replace them with momentary pushbuttons. You will loose some retro-style points, but there will be much less work to do on the coding front.

I haven't tested it, but apparently if you use the command
sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
it'll install NTFS read/write support onto the Pi.
(from https://devtidbits.com/2013/03/21/using-usb-external-hard-disk-flash-drives-with-to-your-raspberry-pi/)

That said, I think this is already included in RetroPie, as my NTFS formatted 32GB USB drive is read fine by RetroPie.

I'd format the SD card to NTFS, add the RetroPie folder to it, plug it into the Pi, and see if the Pi populates the folder. If it doesn't try that command to install NTFS support.

got it to work using fba, thank you all

@jonnykesh

Yeah I wanted to post right after that saying “duh the button was right there”

Haha thanks

@dankcushions said in Better way to change hot key bindings for multiple systems?:

@dinierto that's the correct solution, so i can only guess that there's something in a retroarch.cfg somewhere that's conflicting.

That's my only guess too but I don't know enough about that specific issue

haha, I was trying to install some cave shooters like dodonpachi daifukkatsu

I think it would be useful to note that the menu plays noises perfectly and the video goes extremely smooth.

Thank you.

@spruce_m00se Thanks for the tipp with den capacitator. I solderd one directly to 5V/Ground inputs of the LCD-driver board. Now the heat is going down.
It's a 2,2nF ceramics caps.
The impedance produces a bit of heat. As I power the Pi0, an I2S, an USB hub and the LCD from the same powerline... there was some ripple in the impedance next to the 3,3V regualtor.

@vincentm638 videos are all outdated

@guitarans when it asks for hotkey unless your controller doest have a key you can assign to select, you really should use select as your hotkey. That is how it was originally designed. The only reason they added the hotkey option in the controller config menu in emulationstation was because of people using controllers like the n64 controller or dreamcast controller where they dont have a button to assign to select. It used to automatically assign it to select.

@edale you can go into retropie setup in the retropie menu in emulationstation and not have to do it through command line. But it is not neccessary to do it at all to set up the 8-bitdo controllers. Depending on the firmware you are using depends on if you use the hack or not. You do not have to set udev rules or go into retropie-setup.

@dogeymon So when you launch the ScummVM GUI, nothing starts? If ScummVM isn't showing in the menu, it probably isn't installed. Did you follow the correct installation procedure? When you start the GUI, you then add the game files. Then, the next time you reboot, the games are showing in Emulationstation and in the GUI.
