You can use the File Manager to browse the cards's contents and associate pictures and videos with programs that can view/play them

for pictures, you can use fbi as picture viewer (https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2017/02/how-to-display-images-on-raspbian-command-line-with-fbi/) for videos, you can use omxplayer.

RetroPie already comes with usbmount already installed, so you just need to make sure it's enabled so that whenever you insert an USB stick it's automatically mounted by the system. You could probably customize the usbmount actions to always mount the USB device to a fixed location.

Replace system.sh with this http://malus.exotica.org.uk/~buzz/system.sh and let me know if it works for you. Note that retropie-setup is not tested on Debian unstable, so some things may not build or run properly.

@guest-001 The original poster had problems when starting runcommand.sh from /etc/rc.local, for which the solution was to change the /dev/tty to /dev/tty1.
There is no reported problem when using runcommand.sh normally, from ES, so I was wondering if you had a similar script set-up - especially since you were talking about noticing an error when a SSH connection was made before ES starts.
I don't know what might trigger your problems, but if you can reliably reproduce it from a RetroPie image, then share the steps necessary to get the error and we can try and see where the problem occurs.

@mitu Thank you, that was correct, es_log.txt showed me where the issues were and so I could target the rescrape better.

@stumcbill said in Sharing ROMs / saved across network:

Hi,

I'm planning on having a few Raspberry Pi's connected to a few TV's and an arcade machine, and would like to use my home server to host the ROMs and saves for all of them?

OK, I guess..

The one in the arcade machine will only have arcade ROMs, however, the others (on the TV's) will have a mix of everything (SNES, Mega Drive, Arcade, Amiga etc). Is this possible?

Yes - you can share different ROM folders for each device type - using this method

Also is there anyway to easily share bluetooth controllers between systems? Like if I have a 8bitdo SNES controller attached to the living room Pi, can I also pair it to the bedroom Pi and easily swap between them?

I'm not sure that will work. I remember I had to re-pair my controller once was paired to another system.

Quick answers...

"yes"

and

"no?"

Freeintv
I'm not near my cabinet right now so cannot go test to make sure but one of the function buttons exits the emulator. F4? I'm not 100% sure.

also check this thread at the bottom.

Nintendo DS
I'm not big on the DS but in theory it would depend on how the saved game data is stored. Some systems store the game as a data file and others store game details as a config type file. Depending on if the hamster sees its shadow you will know if the compatibility index needs three more weeks of adjusting. There is an alternative however if you can get the loop bolt tight enough on the nutella . I skip that as I hate the taste of that stuff ...and...and... okay, ya got me I have no idea on this one.

So., I sound a lot smarter if I just go back to ........no?

Thank you Quicksilver

Solved. I updated the controller to the newest firmware. Now it works great. :)

ok nvm i just tried to update the mugen64 emulator it just worked
(bc it didnt work before)

@hfgx1 I have these two, both work correct, but i usually use the .52 file.

@cargorunner said in Not working after update all packages:

Other game controls were right stick clicked as a button. So totally messed up mapping

There are 2 caveats during the upgrade

The xpad driver is overwritten when you select 'Update OS packages' and should be re-installed after the update. See https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Xbox-360-Controller/#xpad-driver. The auto-login is broken - because of Raspbian upgrades for the systemd. This should be taken care by the procedure you performed (i.e. enabling auto-login in Raspi-Config).

For the other errors, or why you're not stuck with that message, I don't know.

Mark the title as [SOLVED] if you found the solution ;) This way people searching for the same problem will now in advance that this post is useful.

@tomcat said in Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection:

Any updates on how to do that?

Nope, since i didn't expect anything good from the capcom emulator (and i was right considering there was 4 frames of input lag at the release), i bought the game only because there was a limited edition with an artbook in my land, and it was console only. Since i don't have the steam version, i can't extract the rom, so i can't try to implement it in fba.

@almulder Collections are automatically generated, so there's no similar sorting option.

Thank you guys. I'm not gonna make a scraper, just a gamelist editor, so I'm safe now on what to do ;-)

@thedatacereal perfect! Thank you.

@mitu

I think he's referring to this in particular.

Edit: @Ahmed It's probably best to report this over at the libretro forums, as the cores are not maintained by RetroPie.

Hey hey, maybe, I have found the solution: In the MAIN MENU / SOUND SETTINGS / AUDIO CARD, I selected <DEFAULT> because the entry was null <>. Just below, in the AUDIO DEVICE, I selected <PCM>.

With this config, the error message disapeared. My config is: sound via a HDMI/VGA convertor, jack to mini-amplificator (RCA).

Great, no ?

@chuskie yep it may be an OS incompatibility. Usually on Windows and retropie the directory format may differ and the build fails to load the images. Tried to check Kodi error log? If not try looking in these directories for the LOG file:

Android: {storage}/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/temp/kodi.log iOS: /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/Kodi/kodi.log Mac: /Users/{my_user_name}/Library/Application Support/Kodi/kodi.log Windows: C:\Users{user_name}\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\kodi.log Linux: ~/.kodi/kodi.log OpenELEC: /storage/.kodi/kodi.log OSMC: /home/osmc/.kodi/temp/kodi.log XBian: /home/xbian/.kodi/temp/kodi.log Raspberry Pi: /home/pi/.kodi/kodi.log
