@mitu problem solved! Saving the core config was the game changer. I still get the "controller not configured" message, but now it works :)

@antoine8168 So it's not changing the resolution, just scaling the output. Maybe the the X.org server doesn't know how to scale the ES window, since it's an OpenGL application.

I had a feeling that would be the case. I'll see if I can get the compatibility list updated and wait for Pi4.

Just to confirm that it isn't the ROM has anyone else managed to replicate this or got the game to run properly on a different emulation setup?

[edit] Panzer Front works just fine on the latest update of Reicast.

@mitu I'm using Skraper and I'm putting the images manually, why can not I create an .xml file

@mitu exacly, thanks man ;)

@mitu Thank you, uninstall usbromservice in retropie setup removed the usbmount package. My problem is solved.

Ah thank you. I was wondering how this all worked together.

@moltke44 I think you've been bitten by this change in Win10 which disables the guest browsing of shares, specifically for Enterprise and Educational versions of the OS. That's why for me (Win 10 Professional) still works, but not for you.
You can try the workaround described here, which I wouldn't recommend, especially if your computer is domain managed and there are security policies in place. Another option is to disable guest access in the RetroPie file sharing service (Samba), but that's a little more involved and it's not so straightforward.

Thank you very much for your reply I have managed to fix it now!
I have edited my original post and added the soloution at the bottom.

much appreciated once again, and not to worry ive more questions on the way lol.

I finally got these controllers working after completely wiping my SD card and rewriting the Retropie image. The only difference this time is that when running through the update I didn't update the underlying kernel, only the Retropie packages. The only reason I did this was on the previous setup this caused several issues such as having to log in at power-on. These were easy to fix but I didn't feel like dealing with it.

Adding this line to Mednafen VB.cfg:

video_refresh_rate = “50.0”

Fixes the timing issue, hope this post helps anyone with the same issue. Runs great now!

( btw, definitely lower the audio_out_rate to around 33200 or something like that, and sample fidelity to lower and add some audio time skew, no framedrops or sound skips now that I could notice even when playing in 3d )

@shoebox low voltage can cause big problems, underclocking is one of them. I would skip the canakit power supply as they are one of the less reliable and go straight to the official raspberry pi power supply.

@ccaveman84 Thanks for confirming the fix.
@buzz maybe we can modify the splashscreen service to start after the local-fs.target ? I can submit a PR.

Thank you.
