Thanks for the info @Lupin !
I ended up finding this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=130294 and updated it with your information.
So this is my working setup:

In /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg, add:

<system> <name>Media</name> <fullname>Movies</fullname> <path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/movies</path> <extension>.avi .avi .mp4 .MP4 .mkv .MKV</extension> <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/joy2key.py /dev/input/js0 kcub1 kcuf1 kcuu1 kcud1 0x70 0x71 & omxplayer -o hdmi %ROM% killall joy2key.py</command> </system>

Now create a folder called movies under /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/and place your video-clips in there.

Bonus: If you want to hide the text that shows up when skipping forward/pausing and so on, change to omxplayer --no-osd -o hdmi %ROM% in the code above

@nemo93 NP, thanks for sorting this out. As stated earlier the whole testrun was anticipatory for the time when kernel 4.19 is discontinued. So still a few years development time for full KMS.

Struggled with this as nothing was working (I only had a wireless USB keyboard handy so I couldn't even get the pi to book into recovery mode). Figured out a pretty easy solution.... 'sudo passwd -d pi' deleted whatever was in the password field so I then could just use passwd to make a new one!

@ghostshot1398 i dont know, since i dont use that BGM.
you will have to do a search for
MusicStateMachine.py if you are using WinSCP there is a file search tab that will work

if not give me a day and ill load up a clean load and i can do a little digging

[libretro ERROR] retro_load_game: couldn't read WAD header from '/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/doom2/DOOM2.WAD' [INFO] [Environ]: SET_MESSAGE: ROM loading failed... [ERROR] Failed to load content

Looks like it doesn't like your WAD. Try using another source. I've found one that works; I can't tell you where to get it but I can probably get away with sharing the crc32 and md5sum to help you determine if you've found the right one:

pi@retropie:~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/doom2 $ crc32 DOOM2.WAD ec8725db pi@retropie:~/RetroPie/roms/ports/doom/doom2 $ md5sum DOOM2.WAD 25e1459ca71d321525f84628f45ca8cd DOOM2.WAD

@sirhenrythe5th said in PPSSPP menu showing text:

I use it wired most of the time as my cats disturb the Bluetooth connection by sitting on my lap (no joke :D)

Your cats are radio-active :)

@alturis Are all good now? Are you using Daphne or lr-daphne?

I was going to post a write-up for you for Daphne, but if you don't need it, I won't bother.

As mitu already posted, native Daphne does not support overlays or shaders. You can try lr-daphne in the quick menu of Retroarch.

@icybawss Please open a new topic and state your question - don't necro post on old topics.

@dankcushions luckily i found the bios needed thanks

Hello currently trying to design a pcb to drop in NS lite housing. Titled Lite Berry . Just started a kickstarter and started paying for pcb design .

@mitu Yep, same result as you. API issue. I'll wait it out. I'm sure they are trying to get their servers to behave.

The game is not unlike other platform games of the era. Though it's unique in that you can climb walls and swing on rope with your teeth and your only method of attack is head butting enemies - straight forward or dive bomb style. The game starts off with simplistic point A to point B style, but focuses more on exploration in the later stages, which include finding hidden bonus areas. The game is also known for its trademark gameplay mechanism of 'spin attack', where Bonk floats through the air if you have the turbo button on. This can be used to float around the level and reach areas for extra/hidden items, but also as a method of attack as well. The game starts you off with 3 hearts, but allows you to increase this number when you find special heart container items, allowing Bonk to take a number of hits before dying. A variety of bonus stages can be found throughout the game, which provide bonus points upon completion and thus resulting in accumulating extra lives. Enemies themselves can be 'milked' for points in that you can keep 'bonking' their dead bodies and not letting them hit the ground. Spin attack is another method for doing this.'

@clyde Also, that different emulators for the same system can require different bios file names/versions. (as is the case with lr-genesisplusgx and lr-picodrive)

@kingcosmuder thats all i got running the command however i tired some dreamcast using redream and both games i tried, sonic adventure and marvel vs capcom 2 both ran 60 fps consistently so i believe its working now

I usually do just press Ctrl+r to search the command line history, enter "setup" to get the last setup command, and press Enter to run it. But mitu's solution is much more elegant (and persistent, depending on the maximum length of your command history). 👍

By the way, one thing that you might find useful is to start the setup inside a screen session, so you can logout while setup keeps doing things like updating or scraping:

screen -dmS setup sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_setup.sh && screen -r setup

or with mitu's alias:

screen -dmS setup rpie && screen -r setup

The && screen -r setup at the end enters the screen session immediately after its successful launch. You'll notice no difference to running setup without screen, but you can detach from it without killing setup by pressing Ctrl+aand then d (for "detach") alone. You can reattach to a running screen session by entering screen -r in the command line, optionally followed by the name of the session (e.g. screen -r setup) in the case of multiple running screen sessions.

After detaching from screen, you'll be back in the command line and you can logout normally without killing any running detached screen session. Then, you could even relogin to RetroPie from another machine and reattach yourself to your screen session from there.

Sorry for the slightly off-topic lecture, your question triggered my "sharing is caring" mode. 😇

@a12c4 Alright, it worked! kind of embarrassing since it's such a simple fix. Though thinking about it, it makes complete sense why an odd number would work. Anyway, thanks again! You saved me a lot of time, as it would have taken a while until I would have realized the problem. Take care!

@kman0318 said in controller buttons open command line:

RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): retropie 4.7.1

Try to update the latest version (4.7.12) and update your OS/packages also (the installer will prompt you to do so). Then reboot and install the xpadneo driver before trying to pair again via Bluetooth.

@mitu Excellent thanks!

@tamperedmedia i think I fixed it . Double checked all of my wires and ,while identical, select and start weren't connected in the right spots on the encoder. Once wired correctly I set both bindings in retroarch without bothering to set player 2 on the retro pie home screen. It still inverts up and down for player 2 on the main menu but it seems to work properly in game so it'll work as it is.

Hopefully it won't break again, appreciate the help.
