FWIW, in short: it instructs the kernel to relax the USB protocol for devices that do not implement the USB HID spec by the letter, either because of poorly engineered/implemented firmware or the vendor did not foresee/test a specific setup (in this case connecting four devices of the same kind).

The hexadecimal numbers relate to <vendorid>:<deviceid>:<applicable quirk> (Links to kernel source code tree).

@d3r3kdrumm0nd please mark your initial post title with [solved] as a courtesy for other users who might face the same issue.

This issue that appears during boot is normal and harmless, nothing to worry.

@rachelgomez123 he does not use windows, he wants to get rid of sound issues using a Raspberry Pi with lr-opera.

I'll backup the chip tomorrow and save the configuration to my desktop PC.

Thanks for the help.

I stopped using this version cause it doesn't keep score on fbneo, probably due to they changed how highscores are kept in the mod.

Can someone update this topic with a new, working command?

The solutions in this topic no longer work

I guess there's very few advmame users left, even few using a real CRT arcade monitor. I'm not sure at which version the RPI support for generating dynamic video modes (with advv), but you can try the latest version and see how it behaves.

@Darksavior I wouldn't recommend anyone use that branch as it was just for my own testing. Some of the commits there may be included but probably not all (and may have further changes).

@zerobyzero said in Start EmulationStation on last game selected before closing?:

So, I'd like to know whether now in 2022 is there any way to achieve exactly that, when starting ES, having selected the last game that was selected before closing ES the previous gaming session.

There's no such feature yet. However, using the 'Last Played' collection and setting EmulationStation to automatically open it on start would position you on the last played game right after start.

@Slime1982 bless you. this was so painful trying to get this thing set up.

@JimmyFromTheBay

I think the smoothing is turned off by default, when a shader is in use.
That would be a plausible explanation .
Thought the comment of smoothing isn't that clear :

# Smoothens picture with bilinear filtering. Should be disabled if using pixel shaders.

It suggests more that you have to force disabling it but I think it does it automatically.

@Nikorasu081 I'm sure you already solved this but I found this very helpful when trying to understand what each remap/config files do what and in what order they are loaded.

Hi @sleve_mcdichael ,

Thanks for your input. I actually can see that my rom zip has unibios 3.2, so if I select that in the dipswitch, it properly boots to unibios. From there, I can select AES mode, so that's good enough for me.

Thanks!

@kiro said in Bezel Project: I have my mame roms divided in my arcade folder by subdir letter tiles A-Z. What do I do?:

and it seems it just sets the 'system' bezels and not the bezels rom by rom. Am I wrong?

The config and overlay directories of the bezelproject are place in :
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/

I just checked.
These bezels are basically rom bezels.
For arcade only it's doesn't matter because the mame driver can run only 1 rom.
So the rom and the system are the same.

I ran a Philips CDI game, which can obviously run more games, just like GameCube.
Looking in the /dev/shm/runcommand.log you can see which config-file RetroArch is looking for :

[INFO] [Overrides]: No game-specific overrides found at "/home/pi/.config/retroarch/config/SAME_CDI/arcade classics (1996)(namco - philips)(eu)[compilation].cfg".

Above is the error when a config isn't found, so now you know what you have to name your config-file.

@kev1049
There’s an app called PiHelper that I use. Shows temp, memory usage, does ssh, and let’s you open a terminal window on your phone

Now after another upgrade it seems to be running again. BT devices are visible again and I could successfully pair the PS4 controller again. Thanks

The three wired buttons are strange...

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/YKcAAOSw5wli4NJJ/s-l1600.jpg

Others have evaluated these chinese knock-offs more closely:

The wiring harness is only compatible with the buttons and joysticks that china provides (but that does not stop anyone with a soldering iron!)

Full article here.

TL;DR: Reverse-engineer the button or get a new pushbutton.

@oleguer please provide all the info requested in my link. that includes a specific example game, the image you used, the verbose log, and so forth.

that said, i don't use advmame on pi4 - i believe it is unoptimized. in the first instance you should use one of the recommended MAME/FBN emulators: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Arcade/#step-1-choose-your-arcade-emulators

lr-fbneo is probably the best all-round performer.
