    I haven't ever run through this tutorial myself, but it looks as though you're meant to replace the "SERVER" from SERVER.ovpn with a server address of your choosing. The example in the tutorial uses ipvanish-SE-Stockholm-sto-a01.ovpn.

    Thank you for all the help, everyone. I managed to compress my entire collection into CHD files. Much cleaner, and much smaller space-wise. And, they all work...except for the Sega-CD 32x games (there's only three or four of those). I guess I have to do some more homework on that one.

    Not all my images were bin/cue. Getting them to be bin/cue so I could convert them to CHD was tedious and sometimes frustrating, but I got it done.

    Thanks again.

  • Sselph scrapper getting strange results

    Quick update.

    I went through and cleaned up some of my rom folders and deleted all game lists and downloaded images on my PI. ES scraped ones and sselphs. I ended up running sselphs and turned out pretty good. 1 snes was hack-link which I expected, zelda parallel worlds. Which from maybe my reddit post, hack-link is the default screenscrapper image when it can't find a image. Another system, forgetting now, had maybe 10. That one has good videos and images but the name was hack-link. Switched it and was good. Nes did have a good amount but did actually download correct images and video. I noticed that most were showing correct info but in the game list the <name> was hack-link. Changed it and was good, it was just the name display that was wrong for most.

    The ones left that didn't work and were fill the the psp hack-link name and info looked to be duplicates /versioned copies of a game. For instance super mario, super mario [a1], super mario [a2]. That might not be an exact example but a similar scenario. As I find them I'll fix them manually.

    Is there a way to enable it on retropie

    Desmume (standalone emulator) is not available in RetroPie, only lr-desmume (the RetroArch core).

    Thanks a lot for all your help guys... in this case it was Apple at fault and I'm going to tell you how you can fix it.

    Apple in their infinite wisdom decided that people don't simply want quotes! Why have a quote when you can have a smart quote :). It's all well and good changing something like this although when you start working on config files which require the default quote, things will go very wrong fast!

    Id suggest that if you are using an Apple system and connecting through a server to make your changes and are facing issues like I mentioned, look very carefully at the quotes and see if they are different from the other untouched entries, if they are, simply follow this guide to change them back to normal:-

    Thanks again guys so much for your help, sometimes it simply needs another set of eyes, I must have sunk in 10+ hours on this and must have looked at that config a thousand times although it never registered :D

    Glad my build is back on track :)

    @RetroFox

    It's possible to have Daphne exit with the combination you want by using an external mapping solution. I have all all my emulators exit using 'select+start' to match the RetroArch scheme. You can find a guide here tailored specifically to RetroPie. The learning curve is somewhat steep, so you'll want to decide if the juice is worth the squeeze.

    Hi,
    There are free utilities that can search an entire folder and remove that one character from all file names. Pretty sure it’s called Bulk Rename Utility. I used it to tidy up all my file names

    @beest It's hard coded into ES at the minute. I'm afraid you are going to have to edit the source and compile a custom version.
    It would be nice to have the option though. It obviously depends on your individual use-case but you could tell similarly named games apart from the box art.

    @darky2003 This is a common issue with USB encoders. They both need to be wired in the exact same way to prevent this. There are quite a few posts on the forum about the same issue.

    @billyh said in help: Malware and/or backdoors in Retropie??:

    It's probably me but to me it looks like @Clyde and @cyperghost are saying two different things?

    Not really, we more of complemented each other. @cyperghost's comment about open ports in the router's firewall are valid, though they should be closed in the router's initial factory setup. It doesn't hurt to check a router's setup for open ports, though, especially if multiple people have admin access to it, or the device was bought pre-owned.

    It also doesn't hurt to read the tech news about vulnerabilites in common routers, or an occational web search for one's own router model in that regard.

    Finally, the advice to set strong passwords also applies to one's router, of course, lest it may be manipulated like @cyperghost said. ]:}

    ... So, in the end, I guess, the main problem with the OP was that the Pi with unchanged credentials was connected to a compromised internet connection? The way I read it as first was that the unchanged credentials was exactly what made the connection an unsafe one but it seems now that there must've been a step or two before that that went awry.

    Supposedly yes, but without more details from @RikFlorence, we can only suspect that much.

    @alturis they could be made of pure gold for all I care. Fact is they are profiting on things that are free, taking others work and selling it as their own. There are more reputable arcade parts sellers out there.

    @dankcushions Got it. Thanks - appreciate the clarification. I think I was simply mistaken on what the proper AR should look like for those games. Although I think as a personal preference I like Mat Mania slightly wider (1:1).
