@87th-e You should get the latest Emulationstation for Windows and see if the problem is solved.

Hi @sixspeeddeath

Im trying the same thing on my tv. The crosstalk you are talking about is caused by the distance between eyes, you need to move the warning message so if you see it without 3d lenses it overlaps with each other.

I edited the first lines of the glsl to this

#define eye_sep 0.605
#define y_loc 0.32
#define ana_zoom 1.3
#define WIDTH 2.4
#define BOTH 0.52
#define HEIGHT 2.4
#define palette 1.0
#define warpX 0.00
#define warpY 0.00

and now its almost perfect on my tv anyway (and LG 3d with passive lenses).
The only problem I have now its that the result image only uses 50% of the tv realstate

@gomezdad If you get white noise from the 3.5 jack, you can try another audio driver by adding this line to your /boot/config.txt:

audio_pwm_mode=2

It's said to be experimental, but it improved the 3.5mm sound on my Pi 3b significantly.

You can also look at White Noise Fix in the Docs for more solutions.

@lurker

I do not listen to a book I have visually read because the narrator will never fit my inner voice.

I know exactly what you're talking about. The one time I tried this was with 'Ready Player One'. Whenever I commit to reading a book, I generally like it to be something new, but I wanted to revisit RP1 not long after I read it the first time. I thought the audio book would be a good way to do that, but while I have nothing against Wil Wheaton, I had real difficulties accepting him speaking for the characters in a different way than I perceived them. I finished it out, but I wouldn't do it again.

I thought it 'meh' anywhere.

That's perfectly fair. Interestingly enough, the original story that would become 'Dracula' was actually written on the same rainy night as the story that would become 'Frankenstein' as a parlor game to see who could write the best scary story. Even then, the three participants agreed that 'Frankenstein' was the more compelling tale. In an even greater coincidence, the third story went on to become the plot for 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2'.

Not to give up on the classics I think I will try H.G. Wells "The Invisible Man" next.

Oh man, what a great choice. I was just thinking the other day that I should read 'The Time Machine' again. I haven't read it since high school.

@Riverstorm

In your thoughts everything is precisely as you perceive it. Hearing others perception is the fun and interesting part.

Well said also. I definitely agree.

@mitu I fixed the issue! I knew that the issue was coming from the retroarch.cfg in the gen/ps1 system and snes worked fine so by using that retroarch.cfg it worked great! Thanks for the help on figuring that out.

So what happened was, I didn't think I wanted ALL of RPie when I started. So I cloned a Emulationstation repos...

with retropie-setup you can install as little or as much of retropie as you like.

Lucky for the raspberry users, we can create scripts like this one and test all the roms.
Hope you like it.
Create this file using "sudo nano checkroms.sh" and paste the contents.
Turn it into an executable using "sudo chmod a+x checkroms.sh" and execute it using "./checkroms.sh"
(Tested on Linux Mint)

#!/bin/bash

# adjust the roms path here
for i in `ls /home/retropie/mame/roms`; do

filename=`echo "$i" | cut -d"." -f1`
echo "Testing file $i:" >> cr_output.txt

# Here we will execute mame calling each rom
mame $filename 2>> tmp.out & export APP_ID=$!

# and kill the process after 2 seconds
sleep 2

kill -9 $APP_ID

# test to see if an error occured
size=$(du tmp.out | awk '{ print $1}')
if ((size > 0)); then
echo "rom $filename is not working" >> cr_rom_error.txt
rm tmp.out
else
echo "rom $filename is OK!" >> cr_rom-OK.txt
fi
done;

# End of script

After executing this script, you'll have two files. One with he roms that did not work, and another with the roms that worked.

Sorry, I thought I did. But that was in another post.

That said, compiling on a threadripper 2990WX with -J80 is almost hilarious. :-)

Thanks

Thanks guys!
As much as I wanted an external drive I still did go for a (64GB) Micro SD (Samsung Evo+ as per benchmark).

I will be moving my Rpi in Nespi Case+ from downstairs to the bedroom quite often so portability is "everything" to me.

@southblazia You don't need to install any additional drivers for a DS4, as soon as your pair it via Bluetooth it should be ready to be configured in ES. Please give more information about your setup as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@greenhawk84 It could be a bad dump or just a different version of the game, in example regional difference. The patch just requires a specific version of that rom, otherwise it can't patch it correctly.

Just want to add that the sound issue is still there in the most current update of the package: in the title screen and at the start of each level you only hear effects and you need to turn off / turn on music in the in-game settings which will then play the music fine - until you transition to a new level and the music is gone again.
I would add this to Github as requested but I am unsure which repository would be the correct one?

Are you using the correct program? Like win32diskimager? You cant use any iso/img program. They will always come up as corrupt

@blazein said in First boot up of retropie comes up with a command line.:

@mitu still goin to the command screen when do the login auto

That's because Emulationstation crashes and it leaves you at the command line. Try updating your packages (if you haven't done so) and if you still get the error, then you should open a new topic with this problem - it's no longer an auto-login issue - and provide the information asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

After trying everything, I gave up. I've reverted back to 4.4 and won't update until the image on the main site changes. Thanks for the help though.

No, Emulationstation doesn't have the ability to run shaders, that's something specific to RetroArch.

@mbrett said in Only 1 PVR client loads in Kodi:

I'm just happy I have my PVR running.

Fair enough.
