    @mitu They don't work at all. :(

    I ran through the install instructions posted on the main page twice to be sure. Fresh RetroPie install on a 32GB card, updated everything RetroPie then right to the shutdown scripts. No go. So I did it again with a fresh install with no updates. Still no go. I also used Putty so I could copy and paste the commands with no chance of incorrectly typing them in.

    The former dev said he hasn't touched them in over 16 months.

    EDIT for added info

    @alegasalv Is the gpu_mem actually using the 512mb though? I found that enabling the 'hdmi_enable_4kp60' overrides the setting, as running 'free' in the terminal was showing less than 512 being used. It's only meant to boost the stock gpu memory by 50mb's...or so I've read.

    I have mine set at:

    force_turbo=1
    over_voltage=8
    arm_freq=2147
    gpu_freq=750
    gpu_mem=512

    Needed to force_turbo in order to go above gpu_freq=550 though, tested by running 'vcgencmd measure_clock core' to confirm. Also, 'vcgencmd measure_clock arm' for the cpu.

    edit: Forgot to mention...if raising the gpu_mem, then using the raspi-config gui to modify anything, it will automatically hash out the hdmi_enable_4kp60 on you...or at least it does for me. I guess it's anything over a certain value.

    edit2: Sorry...also forgot to mention that in order to use the gpu_mem=512, you need to enable cma=512 as well. The kernel crashes on me otherwise.

  • Resolved: Coco Emulation Issues

    I made some progress and figured I would share some updates in the event that anyone runs into this issue. I found a Youtube tutorial to utilize Xroar for Coco Emulation on the PC. I had no installed the disk11.rom or the extbas11.rom. Based on the Retropie doc file, only the bas13.rom is mentioned so it might be worth a minor update.

    Here is the Youtube video for reference if anyone would like.

    I also ran into some issues with everything being in black and white but with some searching Ctrl-A resolved the issue.

    Hopefully this helps someone down the road if they run into this.

    Thanks, yea I did try that as well as "joystick order" in the Configuration Editor. I believe both of these set:

    6a766ae2-7b8d-4ccc-9ea0-57399168c6c3-image.png input_player1_joypad_index = "0"
    input_player2_joypad_index = "1"In the retroarch.cfg file.

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

    Did you run a scrape before trying to generate the gamelist ? Do you have any amiga data (art/text) in your cache ?

    You should talk to the vendor of the board - maybe they have a way to check for faulty wiring ? Looking at the documentation for the board, it looks like it's using GPIONext and that should detect any GPIO inputs easily.

    Put this in your /usr/local/bin folder and make it executable with chmod +x <filename>. Run it from your video folder. Your video files will not be overwritten. New files are saved to ./converted; to use them, you must move or copy one level up to replace the original files. Repeat for each system.

    You may need to install ffmpeg first with sudo apt update && sudo apt install ffmpeg.

    #! /bin/bash # Script provided by Clyde mkdir -p converted # create the folder "converted" if it doesn't exist for f in *.mp4 # process all videos in the current directory do echo "$(pwd)/$f" # show the processed file's name c=$(ffprobe "$f" 2>&1 | grep -c yuv444p) # (-c)ount no. of "444p" if [ "$c" -gt 0 ] # if 444p is present, then # convert to 420p ffmpeg -i "$f" -y -pix_fmt yuv420p -strict experimental converted/"$f" fi done

    No one else? This problem persists for me regardless of what device I hook it up to. Originally it was hdmi audio but I now have it hooked up via the audio jack into an amplifier in my bartop and the same thing still happens.

    @romhackfanatic Yeah bangai-o stuttering is usually a lack of bios. You just need to download the dc bios, create a dc folder in retropie's bios folder, and then put dc_boot and dc_flash inside it.

    @sleve_mcdichael said in Bug: ES video screensaver game info aligned center regardless of setting:

    See?

    I don't, really. The alignment for subtitles is an OMX feature only - which is not supported by omxplayer anymore on the Pi4 - so there's little to do on the ES side here.

    Look like you copied a gamelist.xml from another system, which is configured with genesis instead of megadrive. What exactly did you change before you got this message ?

    @eberhab hi. Good to know it's working and that you were able to sort a lot by reading that thread.

    As far as the emulators... Just stick with Pure and Staging. Not sure what's wrong with the pure setup that you get a blank screen. Make sure the .conf options for pure are specific to the emulator version.

    Theyre working on yet another fork of DOSBox that looks promising. Keep an eye on that thread. The guys on there are very helpful.

    @ken-tipton yes you can do that, you just need to create a joystick mapping for pacman or whatever game you want to have custom. The instructions to do this would depend on what emulator you are using. In some cases it could be just hitting tab and setting the controls in that menu.

    I normally have 8 way joystick as p1 and a 8/4 way switchable for p2 and I'll map games like pacman/dk etc p2 joystick as player1 so I don't get stuck walking up those ladders ;)
