@MargoProxy said in Retropie not booting after trying to change resolution:

“Error parsing XML file /home/pi.emulationstation/gamelists/gbc/gamelist.xml No document found“ not sure if it has to do with the problem before or not

That's usually a sign that the gamelist.xml file is corrupt or not in the correct format. You can try deleting/renaming that file and then re-start:

rm /home/pi.emulationstation/gamelists/gbc/gamelist.xml

Try using append for the Gamelist option, so that existing entries will not be re-scraped/overwritten. That only works when scraping for new ROMs, but if you re-scrape your existing ROMs, try using rom name for the ROM Names option, instead of the default (No-intro).

Thank you for your reply. That's my standard setting, everything from the Retroarch at the settings. Maybe a re-install can sort it out?

You could rename the folder /opt/retropie/emulators/ppssppto something else and then modify the /opt/retropie/configs/psp/emulators.cfg and make a new entry for your copy. Retropie will ignore it then and won't touch it.

Generally doesn't matter as long as you map them correctly in emulationstation and/or the emulator itself.

Probably should fill out the information from the link below first for better help. I think some of the cheaper usb controllers out there that support 2 player sticks/buttons have to be setup exactly the same as each other and maybe that is causing your issue.

You need to start a game first, the file doesn't exist until a game has been run. Make sure you toggle verbose logging when starting the game; after you exit the game you should have a log file in /dev/shm.

@BrtsZ said in Retroarch Quick Menu Inconsistency Between Emulators:

I'm using a rPi 4b with retropie version 4.6.7 on an old CRT TV. Because certain menus can be challenging/impossible to read in Retroarch with the default theme (XMB I think?), I've changed the theme style to RGUI, as it's large, clear, and legible with my limited resolution.

RGUI is the default in retropie. did you delete any .cfg files? please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first?

but then in the following emulators it appears as the default that I can't read (XMB I think?):
-SNES (lr-snes9x)
-NES (lr-fceumm)

again, suspect you've deleted or messed with .cfg files. please provide a verbose log for these, as per my above link.

Just configure the controller in EmulationStation and that should be all.

@ReadyPlayaWon cool i need to try that

@mitu So I tried that just now it actually caused a 20 second delay in the start up process. So I reverted the changes and I've actually just disabled the usbmount services manually and added a line in fstab to mount /dev/sda1 as a work around. Now it boots normally every time.

@BuZz

Yes. It was that. Changed back the bluetooth connect mode to default and is solved. It was in background mode because my SNES30 joystick was temperamental about connecting with Retropie.

I did an update from the the old Retropie version rather than a new install. And maybe because that the bug still present.

Thanks a lot.

@RetroFloppy08 please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

anyone got any ideas on this? very frustrating. still havent got my "clone" ps3 controllers to work in wireless mode yet, and i still havent been able to identify exactly which manufacturer these are... Certainly not SZY

I just did some tests and the culprit seems to be my 4K TV screen. I've got no problem on my 1440p PC monitor.

Try updating Retropie-Setup and then re-installing drastic.

Works a treat! Thank you so much.

lr-opera worked on Lemmings with Player 1 as the mouse, it didn't occur to me to try Player 2 for Sega CD.

@komarin By "pro controller", do you mean the switch pro controller ? If so, you might be interested in reading https://docs.google.com/document/d/10KXz0gD1Lo-7UkDyezSnyrm1vILn-fMSilwPE_kpOik/mobilebasic
