    @leagueofmonkeys Dont get me wrong. Things go down very fast once a name gets branded as supporting piracy. We just try to minimise the chances of that happening. As i said, Retropie support is available for all those who are running official builds.

    You see emulators and ES are perfectly legal tools. Just because you can use it to pirate doesnt mean the software is at fault,. It is those that pirate at fault. A hammer can be used for a lot of useful things and it is perfectly legal to own and use. Someone being murdered using the hammer is not the hammer's fault nor its producers.

    And you are most welcome to use the forums and seek help for official builds. I have posted links where you could find the download and install instructions. If the problem persists, feel free to create another thread and we shall help you out.

    @msnyder there is currently a discrepancy between the GitHub wiki and the pretty docs, and that's my fault so depending on which you looked at that line may not be there.

    Once I sort out a bug in the build process I'm hoping this won't be an issue in the future.

    I expanded your technique to include any Bluetooth controller and added it to the xboxdrv guide as succinctly as possible. Thanks again for this.

    @TMNTturtlguy Effectively i have thought about it and it is a good idea, but i have already one usb port used by my keyboard, another one by my hard disk, and i would like to keep 2 usb ports free. It would let me to eventually connect other devices such as bluetooth guns (to play "time crisis" for instance) or to add 2 more arcade joystick for 4 players game and so on. I could use a usb HUB to do all theses things but i dont want to add too many intermediate electronic composants to the chanel. Either way if it had been the only solution, i will have chosen this method :)

    And if someone who reads this topics has the same issues that i have encountered, i'm hoping he will follow your advice. That's the easiest way too do. I think. ^^

    Thank you for everything my friend. Cheers from France

    Yes it works in all games.

    I think I have find the problem, even when I disconect my keyboard retropie still recognize 2 gamepads (when I only have one conected)

    I have reset all configuration like like in this post:
    https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/5069/resetting-controller-configuration/3

    And my controller is still configured and I still have 2 gamepad detected.

    I'm thinking that my next option is to delete and install again all, but I wouldn't like that.

    Any suggestion?

    @crumbs what resolution is your tv? When you select a game it pops up press a button to configure and either remove any video settings you have set or set it to the resolution of your tv and see if that helps.

    @Shmeter.man are you using a thumb drive to put the bios on? There are issues with the sega cd bios' and that method. Use something like winscp to put the bios files on.

    @Quatermass

    Or basically, having a small battery alongside the Raspi. Theoretically, it could be pretty simple to create:

    Battery, that gives exact 4.7V.

    Custom commands to Raspi to trigger shutdown process, once the voltage drops below 4.75V (IE, when the main power line shuts down and the voltage drops from normal 5-5.1V to the battery voltage).

    And Battery would charge up in every time you use/start Raspi for some time, or could be charged separately in short time.

    @jdrassa Sweet. I'm in the middle of custom creating my PSP and PSX gamelists and mix images (scraping them has been unsatisfactory, so I'm getting images and data from half a dozen different sources and putting them together). It's time consuming, but once I'm done I'll be able to get back into RetroPie stuff.

    You should be able to select the key with the "circle" button, if I recall correctly. There is definitely one of the main 4 buttons that selects the key.

    "Select" is the button that pops up the keyboard.

    @Everett1954

    Did you set this image up yourself? If there's no reason you know of for that file existing, then it should be backed up to be completely safe and then removed from that location. After it's been removed and Emulation Station is restarted, the Jaguar system should show up. If there is a reason for it existing there, the Jaguar information your looking to copy can be found at /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg.

    I tried on my Mobile (Windows Phone with Edge, yeah I know) and search works. I tried with Firefox on a Win10 box and it works, trying with Edge on same box and it does not work. Spoofed the user agent string to Firefox, chrome, etc and it does not work.

    When I say it 'does not work' I mean it returns results but if you click on a result you get the error message. So a search result link looks like:

    https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/16612

    If you click on it the URL in the current window will change to that link and then it gets 'redirected' to:

    https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2874/converting-tronkyfran-s-theme-to-720p/1

    Something in this redirection process is throwing off Edge. Funny thing is when the error is displayed the 'redirected' URL us currently displayed so refreshing the page works.

    Why can't we just have the actual URL returned by the Search tool???

    That was exactly what I needed to do! Thanks, I updated it, rebooted and switched over to the NES Mini theme I had installed and there it was.

    Thanks a lot, I'm a bit new at this, but now things are humming along quite nicely.
