@mitu I just tried and caps lock key seems not to work

@dankcushions well, they are OCing the pi4 to 2.16Ghz (cooling tower ? maybe water cooling ?), downclocking the emulated cpu to 30% (so any game that used more than 30% of gamecube's cpu speed is out of reach), and that's still far from perfect. The situation will probably improve when we get affordable SBCs at the level of a snapdragon 845, but we are still probably 2-3 years away from that.

@AlphaBetaPie You can check your Raspi model with this command:

cat /proc/device-tree/model

@Veggirop The cable looks correct, but it might be the cause of the B&W image (i.e. colours not being correctly set).
Take a look at this RPI forum topic, which has a similar symptom and was solved by changing the cable.

Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

MOD: I've split your post to a separate topic, resurrecting 2 years old posts is not the proper way to use a forum.

here's a couple projects I've done with an LED matrix marquee

RetroPie based ==>https://www.instructables.com/id/Vertical-Bartop-Arcade-With-Integrated-PIXEL-LED-D/

PC Based ==>https://www.instructables.com/id/Arcade-Machine-With-Changing-LED-Marquee/

Here's a guide for setting up this LED marquee and RetroPie ==>http://ledpixelart.com/files/retropie/ .

Runcommand onstart and onend is used here. When a new game is launched, a script runs which passes the rom name to the LED marquee software (http://pixelcade.org) which is then displayed on the panels. Both still image PNGs and GIF animations can be displayed by game.

This project also includes artwork that has been manually re-mastered for 128x32 for that classic 8-bit look. Disclaimer, I'm the creator for this project and sell these as kits.

@Dinsdale Your screenshot shows an error that happens during pairing in the Bluetooth setup - possibly a timeout during the process. Re-connection is handled by the OS, there's no RetroPie script involved afterwards - so I don't think that's the problem.

EDIT: you can try and pair the controller manually - see https://approxeng.github.io/approxeng.input/bluetooth.html, the Pairing with Bluetoothctl section).

Thankyou for the help, I hope I will be able to return it as the people blatantly lied to me saying they had tried it and it had worked well on retropie.

@drewjbx Isn't the script linked in the topic mentioned in the first post - https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/347/background-music-continued-from-help-support ?

@vbs I see what you are saying. Easy and simple instructions. Only thing is for me is I have the "suikoden.bin" and "Suikoden.cue" but, there is no "suikoden.srm" anywhere on my PC. So how do I create those files or even locate them in retroarch? I been trying to figure something out but I am out of ideas. I am using Retroarch version 1.8.1 with the "PCSX ReARMed" and I also have the "Enable Second Memory Card (Shared) toggled on. Still nothing. What am I missing? I know this is a reply that's years from the OP but if you see this or anyone else does the help would be greatly appreciated

@top-specci said in Pressing the 2P hardware button also opening the MAME-Menu !?:

Will great if the MAME menu appear when pressing the Hotkey & 2P button (or any other key combination)

You should be able to setup a hotkey of sorts, or align it with the RA hotkey. Just press Enter on the TAB field and then one button followed by a second button in quick succession. Actually it could be 3 or whatever. You'll just need to make sure it's not a key combo that RA is using to avoid two "actions" happening at once.

@backstander I tried that didnt work as well. I have a feeling my SD card just isnt upto scratch.

I got myself a Pi 4b now with a 64GB micro sd card, the "dtparam=sd_overclock=100" and it works fine. Consider this case closed, cheers for all the input though guys :)

@mitu There is no modification needed at all you can use multi-switch --generic command to offer an easy setup.

@MaMikee Please install raspi-gpio at first with sudo apt install raspi-gpio command. There are tons of other possibilities available ;)

@BuZz said in Ubuntu 64 Bit do not find libraspberrypi-dev:

They are using a rpi4

Somehow I missed that :(.

Thanks all for your help. I found a good image for the Pi0 and dont have any problems now :)

Nice answers guys
Have got there (or have achieved somewhat for now) easier to focus on what looks confusing when one knows they are following the correct path

@sirhenrythe5th I think its because select & x does the retroarch menu so i was expecting it to be the same for the mame menu, but its not. No matter it works now!

@mitu Ah - thanks for this. Doesnt look like it is going to implemented any time soon
