@mitu OK, thanks for your efforts, for the time being I'll use different board for retropie. It wasn't just the inputlag, they have usefull feature, but I think I have found an alternative that don't seem to have problem with Emulationstation.

What's the output of the aplay -l and aplay -L commands ? What settings do you have for Audio in EmulationStation's menu (device/card) ?

Also, please add some info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@BarriCA said in Retropie PS1 games not showing artwork or descriptions:

I recently downloaded and flashed a pre-made RetroPie image with a number of emulators already installed, and all works fine.

We don't support 3rd party images - as outlined in the https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Ask the image creator for support or use the image from https://retropie.org.uk/download.

@mitu
Done and I also updated the Comicbook Theme but still crashes
At this point I think I just have to let go of this Theme :)

@BuZz OK thanks, that got me back to the defaults.

After doing that the menu still wasn't responding so I deleted the emulationstation input configurations. Now it seems to be working better.

Try a different HDMI cable, if you have one.

My test Ubuntu 22.04 system was also upgrade. Since 22.04 sets Wayland as default display server, you may be missing some libraries needed for CSD. Try installing the libdecor-0-plugin-1-cairo package and see if - when using Wayland - you get the same error when starting a SDL2 application (i.e. EmulationStation or gnome-terminal).

@mitu thank you so much will give it a try

@tomwaitforitmy said in Game states are lost in Chrono trigger?:

Is there a decent way to prevent a simple select + L from destroying all my save states?

You could remap or remove the input_load_state_btn value in your controller's autoconfig file at /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig/[DEVICE_NAME].cfg

@mitu I found solution, i just deleted previous settings and i mapped to Home button to exit. You can close this topic.

@Zirom44 said in Lr-Caprice32 installation error from source:

I'm very new to this topic, but if I understand correctly the issue was fixed and it should work if I just run the basic installation within RetroPi. Unfortunately I got the error message as you did.

Yes, looks like it is happening again. Just ignore it for the time being and continue with the rest of the installation.

The location of the file is explained in https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroAchievements/ - it's in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg. The same file can be accessed over file shares at \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch.cfg if you wish to edit it from a PC.

Thanks all for your advice, I much appreciate it! I'll ensure the buttons are mapped

and I'll give fbneo a go as well - seems like it may have other advantages, although mame seems to run fine so far on a raspberry pi 3

@jamietuley Distorted audio is a typical symptom of your device being too slow to emulate a game, which might happen if your device is underpowered for some reason (bad power supply, too many connected devices, ...), resulting in your cpu being underclocked. Most of the time, it's simply that your device is too slow though, and tbh i'm not convinced a pi3 can handle vector games at a high resolution.

@lostless Thanks.

Swapped the connection between the USB boards, and that worked. Must not have been in parallel config.

@lostless - Thanks!

Didn't realize that each USB port would have a priority, I thought it was assigned from Emulation Station. Moved the USB cords around, and now I'm back up and running.

@preciouscattle

What type of Amiga ROMs are you using? If you're using WHDLoad packages you should just be able to load them like any other ROM (eg direct from the ROM list).

The only time I got a black screen was because I'd messed up the kickstarts - do you have the correct ones?
