Then my best guess is that it just isn't compatible.

You could try it on an Ubuntu Live CD on your PC to see if it's a problem with Linux in general or the Raspberry Pi/Kernel. (You can use jstest-gtk to test it).

@BuZz Beautiful. I've only had this up and running for a few hours so I'm still finding my way around. Thanks very much!

@BuZz

Updated my script, re-enabled art and all is good now. Thanks a lot for your help as always, both @BuZz and @dankcushions.

I feared people were going to assume it was a configuration issue my side, so i'm glad you guys checked it out.

Cheers

Thanks for the info.

So the PI2 might not be fast enough for such games on DOSBox. Too bad.

Thanks for the reply , I'm thinking it could be fake sd cards. They was showing 64gb before I started ... I've remembered the first card I did was from a different shop and i had a full set of all roms , they all worked and even scraped them all , I've just found a 128gb generic sd card I'll see how I get on with this ,

I've also tried this in a raspberry pi 2 and 3 so surely it must be the sd cards

Yeah, I'll probably go with the complete reinstall. I think I power the Pi correctly. (powering up by connecting the Pi to the Power Supply and shutting it down directly from the Emulation Station) Thanks for the help anyway! At least it gave me the clue for what might have happened.

EDIT: Yes, the reinstall did its job. I connected to the internet with no problems! I wonder what was the cause... Thanks a lot!

@obsidianspider

About 80mm width, 100mm height. Depth I'm still 100% as I'm waiting for a PCB board to fit before I can decide definate. Anything more than 15mm is probably too much. But Height is negotiable is width and height are reduced, mainly because of the battery compartment area being empty after cutting away to make certain areas more accessible

@mediamogul Thanks for the reply. Yes I tried remap the keys in emulation station. But when I play the keys arent what I mapped them.when I use a keyboard the keys are ok but I want to play with xbox controller.
Edit: I reintalled the retropie and now everything including the keys work ok. Thanks.

@Pyjamarama

This is mine so far, just testing it now. For some reason on this new build though games take forever now to load, even with warp mode on:

0 1 0 1 1 16

0 1 2 5 Virtual keyboard
0 1 3 5 Machine settings&Joystick settings&Swap joystick ports

0 1 6 5 (null)
0 1 7 5 (null)
0 1 8 5 Quit emulator

Xbox button brings the menu gui up

@obsidianspider thanks a lot. Will update ASAP.

@meleu reset command didn't change anything on my display. still a black screen..

@twd oh i forgot to mention that it was for mame. my roms work for other emulators like snes and genesis on ES but not on AM.

also, not interested in using floobs image yet. I like to make it myself and know how to configure it manually. just seems like the right info isnt displayed anywhere online. i have a feeling i need to get floobs image tho, this shit is frustratingly difficult.

@Pyjamarama short answer: no

@BuZz Looks like this has been fixed from what I have seen on Gitub, has it been passed on to Retropie 4.0.5?

Thanks

For anyone that's still following this, I've found some FFMPEG settings that work:

vcodec = libx264 acodec = libfdk_aac pix_fmt = yuv420p threads = 2 scale_factor = 1 format = flv video_preset = ultrafast video_profile = main video_tune = animation video_bufsize = 512k video_minrate = 512k video_maxrate = 512k video_r = 60 video_g = 120 video_keyint_min = 60 sample_rate = 44100 audio_preset = aac_he_v2 audio_global_quality = 1

You can read more about it in my post: How To Live Stream To Twitch from a RetroPie

Just to confirm that example script you provided, worked well and that this problem is solved.
Thanks again for your help.
