@dankcushions
But it runs great on 3 of my other x86 (x64, actually) systems. Just not on this one with this particular video card driver. If you don't mind my asking, how does lr-beetle measure up to pcsx?

it's just a fairly old emulator that does a good job of running games at native resolution on low-power arm devices, but if you have a powerful PC then beetle is a better choice as it has loads more features (high resolution, perspective correction, etc), and is constantly updated.

Its working now. Seems like between the time I installed it (last night) to now there has been a change. Running the update all packages resolved the issue!

oh wait i had to restart

@meleu said in runcommand questions:

PSX are the worst offenders

They are big ROM files, isn't it? :-)

I think If you're using retroachievements it adds an extra time to RetroArch load the game (RetroArch calculates the game's hash and try to find the game in the RetroAchievements server).

Ah, this actually probably explains why the black screen became more obvious seemingly out of the blue. I'll try disabling it. Thanks!

@denisuu That's on an RPi 2 and I'm assuming that going to an RPi 3 would be an increase, but not a ton of difference. I've been curious about AOE vanilla though.

Thoughts on resources running it on Raspbian vs Retropie?

Hi, yes they are, I've checked everything amd after asking in various other places it may be that the issue is retrosmc as I'm using that instead of retropie

@KANE81

a creator called nacho skinny.

You mean THE nacho skinny? What's the skinnster been up to these days? If he ever tries to tell you a story about a trip to Cancun, a walnut farm and a circus performer named Millie, he's a liar. That lady got her shoes back.

@herb_fargus said in Colecovision sound stutters:

@barbudreadmon I also hear the bluemsx is capable of emulating colecovision ;) just needs some controller hooks.

This would be a more viable option. Fba needs it's on romset for Colecovision.

With bluemsx you could just use the No-Intro set.

@MLC4050 I'm new to this...I don't fully follow you. Any chance you could break this down simple and sweet? Thanks for your time. I appreciate your help.

Builds / wizards aren't supported here and neither in Kodi forums, because most of them contain banned addons. Ask for help in their pages/forum.

I think you ran the raspberry setup and installed Kodi as user root.
Trying to fix this now for myself..

@mediamogul

It's all good, just got a little excited to add another system, no big deal, just always looking!

I have the same issue... sort of... I'm running a pidrive and put an image on it... worked beautifully... I started adding more roms... then got to a point where it told me I didn't have any more room... I have a terabyte tho... I tried expanding the file system and says sda2 is not an sd card... it won't let me... So i'm in the same boat as you... I saw noobs is an option but I have not tried it... I'm not sure if it will mess with my image or not...

@herb_fargus I really appreciate the advice. I am even more lost now ha! but I would like to learn how to navigate the terminal more I just don't have any friends that could walk me through it. I will check out your link. thanks!

@AlexMurphy I dont understand what you mean. The number of it is called 6CL-00001. I dont know if that is the "Model" you are referring to but I am not familiar with what the models are called aside from this. There is also a number 1708 on the box. Perhaps that is the model?
If you Google 6CL-00001, it brings up the results for the exact controller model which I have. Can you tell me another way to find out the "Model" that you are referring to and I will gladly get that info for you. Thanks.

They are didn't images that you need to burn till the SD card

@leoleopold said in Why failing to save game process of FFIX in PSX?:

@lostless Yes, save state can be saved by Select + R1 and loaded by Select + L1. You can change the save state Select + arrow-key-left/right. I think it works. Thank you!

Those are called "save states", I thought you had problems with the normal in-game saving. Well, enjoy FFIX it's a great game.
