    @hostolis Yeah it was the round white “Xbox” button on top. How did you uninstall it and install the neo version?

    @xtv said in Read psx roms off SD card & USB:

    One solution could be splitting this into two subdirectories, like A-J and K-Z, one of them being a symlink to the USB drive.

    That would be a simple visual solution to "hide" the separate-location structure. You could also split it on release year or franchise to help hide the fact.

    @Hillbilly The page you have linked for your display is their whole lineup so I'm not sure which one you have, but judging by your config it should be an easy fix. I have a similar display that they give me almost identical settings with.

    The main issue is that you've been given a bunch of text to copy and paste without any explanation from the supplier. To top it off, what they've given you is erroneous and based on an old config. This is a great resource for figuring things out and checking whether your /boot/config.txt settings are valid and have the proper syntax: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/README.md . If you bought it off a place like Amazon, there's a good chance someone has posted the correct options in their review.

    Long story short though, you should replace the last section that was added after overscan_scale=1 with:
    hdmi_group = 2
    hdmi_mode = 87
    hdmi_cvt=1024 600 60 6 0 0 0
    hdmi_drive = 2

    This will properly set the resolution to the display if it indeed the correct resolution by putting the equal signs next to cvt and actually setting the option. group 2, mode 87 lets you set a custom CVT that is 1024x600 resolution @ 60 Hz with a 15:9 (6) aspect ratio and no margins (0), progressive (0), and normal blanking (0) described in https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md . I also find it good practice to put each option where they make sense only once so it's less confusing and doesn't cause frustration when you're changing one and then further down the same option is overriding your changes so I would recommend moving them back up into the config.txt to replace the others.

    To remove the black bars, you can uncomment (remove the hashmark) from disable_overscan=1. You also more than likely won't need config_hdmi_boost=9 so you can probably comment that out.

    Not super versed in audio troubleshooting. If sound is working in games, I would've thought it'd also be working in EmulationStation. Hopefully the previous mention of setting hdmi_drive to 2 will fix that. It's not making little clicks when you move around in the menus? Does changing it around from Auto, Headphones, and HDMI have any difference on whether you can change the volume? You might try using a keyboard to see if that helps or updating RetroPie through Setup.

    Imagine you've tried all the Bluetooth options while getting Protocol not available? If you're trying to connect to speakers or headphones you'll probably have to follow a tutorial to add that functionality. I don't know if things have changed with the Pi 4, but I remember being rather frustrated when I finally got it to work and just started over with a new RetroPie image without it.

    I hope at least the part explaining the config.txt options has been helpful to you.

    Many 3D arcade titles still struggle on the pi 4. Unfortunately I think we are stuck using the ports for virtua racing. The saturn port is closest to the arcade version and runs pretty good using lr-yabasanshiro. You can get the experimental script module for it here: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/3132 (it is not officially a part of retropie yet but you can test it out like I have been).

    This issue also happens when using an 8BitDo bluetooth controller on amiberry and mame-mame4all.

    as others have said, we do not support third party images, and these preloaded systems break licenses and our hearts: https://retropie.org.uk/about/legal/

    on a more practical level, retropie isn't a consume product so no matter how much a seller tries to sell it as one, it WILL need manual configuration at some point, and it WILL go wrong. if manual configuration is too much work for you (totally fair enough!) in encourage you to try the various official emulator boxes. the nes/snes classics are great, and the ps1 classic is flawed, but essentially the same emulator as retropie ships with anyway.

    i'm locking this post as there's not much more to be said. if you want to try the official way we are here to help!

    I couldn't get speaker-test to work, or aplay. alsamixer had volume.

    I ended up just re-imaging the SD card with a fresh copy of RetroPie. This fixed my issue. All ROMs I've played have had appropriate audio.

    @BGallagherLA wondering if that is just an automatic thing with NetPlay and is just a computer player or something rather than someone actually joining? I just don't understand how someone can randomly join a game when you need the proper external IP to be able to access the game, and the exact same rom set, emulator and RetroPie version in order for it to work

    @metal_slugger said in Redream not not visible in any packages:

    But it's not there for me. Is this because I am using x86 machine and not a Pie?

    The standalone redream emulator is available just for the Pi 4 at the moment.

    Any suggestion?

    Wait for an update to EmulationStation to solve this part.

    EDIT: or you can manually modify the config file to set the AudioDevice to 'HDMI'.

    @chupa38 ya those third party images put so much in to make it look all pretty and cool. But they are so far off from the base RetroPie. I’ve decked out my RetroPie builds, but I did it all myself. I had to learn how all the pieces fit. If something is wrong, I know what I’ve done. If you start with base retro pie And just want to play games, that may be your best bet. It may not look very pretty and flashy, but functions rock solid. And when your curiosity peaks, you can seek out here on how to customize your build the way you want. And go as far as your willing to learn.
