@Floob Thank you for the heads up. When I've got some time (possibly over Easter) i'll look in to it. I have to admit, this has been on the back burner somewhat as we're in the middle of decorating, but each time i bust Retropie out the fact i've not got my Amiga set up the way I want does bug me!

omg....ok...lets see then if i know where to find them

@obsidianspider the 5 inch hdmi display 800x480 xpt2046 touch controller, latest retropie, and pi3

@jbodhorn said in Possible compilation of retropie on odroid xu4?:

@Shockwave wouldn't it be armv7-mali for platform on an odroid-xu4? I'm trying it now, I installed debian jessie and I've just started running the script, will update later on

looking forward in your results, retropie is the best imo and it would be perfect of Xu4!

Re. speed gains :
What about running games at low resolutions, but then using shaders to make it look acceptable? Or do the shaders always run at the emulated resolution?

Truth to be told I am more confident with Sudoku and subway more than Sudo and terminals but at least I can get the point of the deep waters of using Berryboot. Thanks. :)

@caver01 i'm unable to test either but if mame2010 does something different i could look into it, but i would have thought it wouldn't be respecting the api if it did anything different!

@BuZz Thank you

@nickrone don't waste your time with noobs if you don't know what you are doing.

Try this instead:

Power supply is very important. The current 2,5A is not only one parameter you need to guarantee. You need also this two parameters:

linear adjustment +/-2%, load regulation +/- 5%,
Unfortunately I had to research this detailed information because it wasn't attached to my raspberry pi 3.

Hello, you can check this post if you want. It's a little script which check if you have to use HDMI or LCD screen at boot.

Hello,
pifba is the only emulator works with start+select to exit.

Here is my joypads retroarch config:

Solved - THANK YOU!

@pjft Thanks! Dream come true with this one. Installed and everything appears to be working great. I love the screen saver, the temps are running nicely and i have not issues with screen savers, text, or video previews. One item that is not a big deal and I solved for my build is the volume level of the screensaver videos compared to the volume of the video previews and actual games. I had to set my system volume to 92% in order to make the game and preview audio align with the screen saver audio. Originally the screen saver audio was playing about 2 times my game audio and it blew me away!
Another thought to add to what I am sure is a very long list of wants and desires of many is the ability to have a custom screen saver/single screensaver. My thought here is that you keep the random video screen saver the way it is, but can you add another option that would run a video from a designated folder? We could then create a custom screen saver video, or simply put your favorite video in a folder location and only that video would play. I am thinking it would be fun to have a custom video i would create in adobe after affects similar to what we can do for the custom splash screens. - Anyways, like I said, that is a wish list item and by no means an immediate need or fix.

Thank you for your hard work and to @fieldofcows for this addition to ES!

Edit: @pjft Any thoughts on how this build of ES 0.6-ssctl might react to the new retropie 4.2? I am assuming that when i run the update all it will load the base ES and i will then go back in and replace with 0.6-ssctl. Just wondering if you have any thoughts before i give it a try. Thanks

So just to confirm, this is still not working?

I have the same exact setup and the issue I am having is my button mapping changes for player 1 but not player 2. Player 2 is working perfect.

The config file is accurate and the lsusb command shows them both:

Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0079:0006 DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick

My config file is there too:

/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads

DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick .cfg

input_device = "DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick "
input_driver = "udev"
input_l_btn = "2"
input_load_state_btn = "2"
input_start_btn = "8"
input_exit_emulator_btn = "8"
input_up_axis = "-3"
input_a_btn = "5"
input_b_btn = "4"
input_reset_btn = "4"
input_down_axis = "+3"
input_r_btn = "6"
input_save_state_btn = "6"
input_r2_btn = "7"
input_right_axis = "+0"
input_state_slot_increase_axis = "+0"
input_x_btn = "1"
input_menu_toggle_btn = "1"
input_select_btn = "9"
input_enable_hotkey_btn = "9"
input_y_btn = "0"
input_left_axis = "-0"
input_state_slot_decrease_axis = "-0"
input_l2_btn = "3"

Any thoughts?

Haha no problem. I like the idea of doing this. It was just question as whether I would get any improvement in speed. Looking at some benchmarks, my SanDisk extreme sd card is a pretty good performer. But as I don't have the time to do extensive tests or benchmarks myself, I was wondering what other people had experienced in terms of read speed. Thank you for the links by the way.
