    Another two days, and still no joy on Windows.
    I just read HERE, however, that installation of Apple Bonjour is recommended as a way to help the raspberry Pi getting an IP, when connecting it via direct ethernet cable on Windows...I don't really remember if I have already installed Bonjour or not...I will check tonight, anyway, and see if installing/reinstalling it does the trick.
    I'm still open to suggestions, eh...don't be a stranger, if you know something I might have missed. ;)

    @meleu Yes your explanation about config save on exit makes sense.

    I will not be doing it again.

    If I navigate to this section on the UI it will only change the hotkeys for the system I am in at that moment
    eg: Mega Drive?

    All the other systems will still be set to the defaults?

    Is there a way to change all the systems at once from putty like a master retroarch.cfg file?

    Inside: /opt/retropie/configs/SYSTEM_NAME/retroarch.cfg.
    If I go into each of the systems I use can I change the hotkeys for each system in this file?

    Copy the PSX gamelist.xml file to your PC and create a backup copy in case you get undesired results and you need to start over. Open the file in a text editor and use the Search for and Replace feature. Copy the file back to your pi after you have exited ES.

    Maybe the gamelist.xml is being stored in another path? I believe with the internal ES scraper, it defaults to storing the gamelists at... .emulationstation/gamelists ? I can't quite remember, but I'm sure there will be references to it here.

    Maybe take a look there.

    OK, I see the coolcv_x86_64 and coolcv_i686 binaries in the latest "all" bundle.
    Not sure how I missed this earlier.
    In any case, coolcv isn't enabled on retropie x86, so I can't install it from the retropie_setup as it doesn't show up in any of the package lists.

    Might be worth adding now? Perhaps try to determine which build would be required (i686,x86_64) at module install time?
    Or perhaps just go with i686 for compatibility? (I hardly think it's going to stress the computer's memory :) )

    @AlexMurphy said in Pocket PiGRRL image won't boot:

    @basteluwe You are asking RetroPie why their image works and a third party modified image doesn't? You would really need to address your query to adafruit whose image it is.

    No, I'm not asking Retropie! I'm asking experianced guys here at this forum for advice!
    But forget it. I used the basic package and did the changes manually myself. So, problem solved (for me at least).

    @lilbud Try going into the Retropie Setup and manually turning on the USB ROM service and reboot. (You may have already, but it doesn't hurt to try it again.)

    A bad name in the CUE file has bitten me in the past. I often forget that the name has to match the BIN file, and it's case sensitive on Linux.

    @rridenour Once you get a better feel for the way each version of MAME relies upon a corresponding (and different) romset, you may reconsider using the Arcade folder. As you figured out, it isn't very useful when you drop an entire romset into the folder if you want to leverage multiple versions of MAME. You will inevitably run into conflicts. Where Arcade DOES make a difference is in "uniting" the interface for arcade games. In other words, non-technical users understand what an arcade game is, but may not understand the differences between AdvanceMAME, libretro cores, FBA, and so on, nor the technical reasons behind using one version of MAME for one game and another version of MAME for another. By combining ROMs under a single folder, you effectively strip the interface down to a single decision for the user: Arcade, and you manage the emulators that get used per ROM with RunCommand settings.

    This idea, of course, requires a fair amount of "rom management" to keep everything straight. Instead of dropping the entire set into Arcade which would overwrite ROMs from another set that are already there, you have to mix and match individual ROMs and track which emulators you are using to launch them. This probably means you are storing the entire sets off-system and keeping track of what you use to launch each game in a spreadsheet. It seems like a lot of work, but for me, it's worth it for how it simplifies the interface. I am all for having options, but I love that I can present a clean, intuitive interface to users who don't understand (and don't want to understand) what is going on under the hood.

    @MadRikXIV Yes, I never really put money in arcade games, that was an expensive pastime - 30 seconds play and then it was, "Right then, that'll be another 50p please". All I had to do was wait 30 years for MAME :D

    @skiddlz a cue file is essentially a text file but with .cue as the extension, it tells the BIN file about location of audio. I'm pretty sure there is a zipped library of all cue files for psx games out there somewhere...
