@mitu I transferred the file but the error is still here, then i moved it to the BIOS folder and the error message didn't appear again. But the games don't run, they are stuck to the boot screen (hand with the blue disk). Thanks for your time !! I will change my roms with .lha or i will use amiberry.

Ok, i tested with .lha and everything is working fine. Maybe the first roms wasn't so good.

Thanks all. Will keep on trucking.

@Lolonois

Okay. See that's where my lack of knowledge becomes difficult/dangerous. I was hoping that the GPIO logic would be able to simply read the difference between two pins being (shorted?) or not and code would have been able to just assign parameters to what to control in each circumstance without all the extra circuitry.

Hmmm.

@roslof thank you so much for providing the binary (once again) and for reporting back re tmnt2! Much much appreciated. I'll keep on testing and reopen the thread should I find anything else.

@windg That worked! Thanks for the answer and be well!

@jernserval said in More 8BitDo Pro 2 Controller Weirdness:

It appears there's some kind of naming conflict or problem when the 8BitDo tries to "spoof" as an XBox One controller?

No, I don't think so - conflicting with what ?

Xpadneo refers to configuration in it's docs, but there was no configuration after RetroPie-Setup install?

Configuration is optional, RetroPie doesn't add any, but you can add it if you'd like.

hid_xpadneo: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel. - Does this mean I need to install the headers referenced in the xpadneo documentation? Was it not autoinstalled by RetroPie-Setup?

No, that means what it says - it's an out-of-tree module, external to the Linux kernel. Kernel headers are already installed, otherwise the module wouldn't have compiled.

Now in retroarch its saying "8BitDo Controller not configured" why would it say explicitly "not configured"?

Because it's not configured ? This means there was not configuration profile found for the controller.

What is the way forward to get the most reliable experience with X-Input across retroarch and other emulators?

You haven't mentioned the issues you have with other emulators, but for RetroArch it's enough to configure the controller in EmulationStation in order to generate the configuration for it.

@kounabi22 I'm not sure if this refers to all binaries or just the one referenced in the topic, but @BuZz said in lr-mame binary not updating?:

(...) I have also paused building binaries currently and will resume soon.

I don't know what the "regular" binary update schedule is like or anything but I see on the emulationstation-dev package (from the master branch) which receives regular updates on GitHub, the latest binary is from 21 Jul 2023, over a month ago. I feel like in the past these have been updated within days of the code change, but maybe that's not always the case? Or maybe they really did mean all binaries had paused, and "will resume soon" hasn't happened yet.

@windg I looked the link you posted and I found the info I was looking for. I have another question now. When I try to load the second disk to a game, I get the error "Failed to append the disk". Do I have to open another topic?

@windg

I figured this out after wrangling with my Samsung firmware.

It was trying to automatically adjust the signal.

In my TV settings it had to be set to PCM. In ES default / hdmi / hdmi worked.

It happened after a background firmware update I wasn’t informed of, hence my utter confusion over cause.

The clue was that after switching to my Apple TV, same issue presented itself.

I take back any suggestion it was a Retropie issue.

The thing that really sent me for a loop was that for some reason the emulation station navigation clicks immediately became inaudible (but if you crank the volume you can hear it).

This is still an issue, and I’m unsure if it’s TV/ Retropie or combination of issues. The games, playback of snaps, etc. still sound fine / normal volume.

It is not significant enough to take much of my attention.

@Addison Scummvm have a cloud option to upload the saves automaticaly but i haven't test it yet. You will find this if you open Scummvm gui : Global Options >> Cloud.

@ecto Thanks so much. This helps me a load to incorporate into my build.

Thanks a lot and I really appreciate the time.

@windg YES! IT WORKED! Thank You! No indication anywhere that that would work. Much Appreciated.

I know this topic was started just over a year ago, did anybody manage to get the Amazon Luna controller connected via Bluetooth for use with Retropie.

I have just got one and I am thinking of trying Retropie along with this controller on a Raspberry Pi4.

@PittStone
Are you running plex as a server or media player?

If you just want it to run as a server you don't need a desktop environment for that.

@sleve_mcdichael said in Oricutron key mapping - is it possible?:

It can be a lot to process. How far in before you got lost?

Look for an entry that represents your device. Scan for the line marked H: Handlers=, and make note of the event number. Example:

pi@retropie:~ $ cat /proc/bus/input/devices I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c21f Version=0305 N: Name="Logitech Gamepad F710" P: Phys=usb-0000:01:00.0-1.2.2/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/scb/fd500000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.2/1-1.2.2:1.0/input/input73 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=event0 js0 B: PROP=0 B: EV=20000b B: KEY=7cdb0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 B: ABS=3003f B: FF=1 7030000 0 0 I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c315 Version=0110 N: Name="Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard" P: Phys=usb-0000:01:00.0-1.2.4/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/scb/fd500000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.4/1-1.2.4:1.0/0003:046D:C315.0030/input/input74 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event1 B: PROP=0 B: EV=120013 B: KEY=10000 7 ff800000 7ff febeffdf ffefffff ffffffff fffffffe B: MSC=10 B: LED=1f

Truthfully? Here.

(But thank you very much for trying :))

looks like this has been fixed upstream: https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/pull/1027

source compiles should now work :)

thanks all for reporting! @mitu, thanks for reporting upstream, and @BuZz thanks for that, hopefully you can use later binaries, once fix is confirmed :)

@chiwaw Thank you for posting this. I know this thread is old but I wanted to say thank you, and also to say this is what I am trying to set up, essentially a retropie build that lets me use old 8-bit computers with the basic interpreters.

I have a ton of 1980s programming books from when my local public library got rid of them, and wanted to type in programs and save them. It's not well documented at retropie, recalbox, or other places as to how to launch these emulators into the computer's default BASIC interpreter. If you want to write BASIC programs, this is a must. I'm hoping this comment adds some phrases and words that would increase search result hits to this post. I've been trying to figure this out and every search I've tried has come up with squat until today when I put "BASIC interpreter" in quotes into google.

@Doomguy Those are both still necessary, yes. RetroPie does not bake in any of the customizations necessary to run the GPi case.

While not strictly necessary, you should also add this to the list: https://www.reddit.com/r/retroflag_gpi/comments/c176wg/sound_fix_for_gpi_mono_sound_link_inside/ It will fix the issue where the GPi tries to output one channel of stereo sound through the case's mono speaker.
