@AlphaBetaPie if i recall you can set the resolution within the core options but i would never recommend/support the use of that emulator, as it was abandoned years ago: https://github.com/libretro/mupen64plus-libretro

While I have you here, this strikes me as something that might be related to another issue I'm having in this thread.

No, it's not.

Are there any insights you can add to the other thread?

@oli-_
please fill out https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first when seeking support

please define "configuration". note that no systems/emulators will show up unless you have transferred games to your system.

@mitu
I did as told, emulationstation auto config was disabled. I enabled it and also removed xboxdrv.
And it finally works! I could configure both controller, the configuration is kept in the game and even when rebooting I don't need to re-configure it again.

Thanks a lot, the auto config settings were an eye-opener!

@mitu thank you :)

@seatbeesate
I stand corrected, I did a fresh install again/installed safe shutdown script rebooted and seems to be working.

Going to try and reproduce to make sure maybe it was just the config.txt that got screwed up or something.

I know this is old, but this is the only thread that keeps coming up in searches that has fixed this problem for me, and I wanted to say thanks, and also include my controller model in case it helps anyone else.

Controller: GameSir G3s controller in X-input mode.
Left and right triggers were working at one point, and somewhere along the line, remapping the controller broke analog L2/R2. However, manually editing the config, like the user above (rilight) to +2 and +5 (yes, you need the + in there), fixed it for me. Specifically, this problem was plaguing me while playing OutRun on MAME.

Just wanted to say thanks to mitu and rilight. ;-)

@illando unfortunately I don't know
I really don't see the card speed being much of an issue because the raspberry pi doesn't have a very fast read write speed to start with as far as I know

But if you have one laying around or easily accessible guess it wouldn't hurt to try that

Thank you for the kind words.

If you've used the USB transfer method to copy your ROM files, then you'll have both ROMs on your sdcard - the method just copies the new ROMs. Delete the ROM files on you sdcard, not on your USB drive.
You can use the File Manager from the RetroPie system in EmulationStation to browse the ROMs folders and delete them or press Select in EmulationStation when have a game selected and you'll have the option to delete it.

Most likely the display drivers disabled the Pi4's GPU drivers by modifying the bootloader configuration.
Can you post your /boot/config.txt file ? How did you install the display drivers ?

I'm running a near identical build but with 2 wired contollers. The only psp games I run are the Williams and Gotlieb pinball games, but they run well on ppsspp. I just had to activate frameskip, otherwise there's minor stuttering.

It may just be that those games are some of the ones that the pi struggles with.

Just wanted to confirm that building RetroPie on current Debian ‘testing’ using RetroArch’s 1.10.3 source works perfectly.

Thanks!

@mitu
i have 2 usb to the Pi
1st wireless keyboard+mouse
2nd bluetooth dongle

reason you're not using the built-in Bluetooth of the Pi 3B+
already try with built in bluetooth
I got the same problem sir

Hi,

screen tearing is almost gone with some extra buffer in config.txt

extra_transponse_buffer=2

What i found is that this extra buffer will help while dispaly rotating.

You'll need some additional setup or driver for the circuit inputs - is the Pi board connected via GPIO to the circuitboard ? What model is the handheld - maybe the vendor has instructions on how to configure the inputs on a bare RaspiOS installation.

@mitu That's it! That was the solution.

Thanks for helping me out. I'd probably never had guessed that. Thanks a lot!

@zemendonca1 in general (as this knowledge can be used for more than just retropie), savestates usually do not transfer between different emulators, or even different versions of the same emulator, for that matter. but in game saves or memory card files typically do. just have to rename them to the proper format of what the other emulator requires.

@shark

Wow, on a hunch I changed the following line in /boot/config.txt and it has corrected the issue.

overscan_scale=0

From what I read this is supposed to be the default setting, but it was set to 1 in my config file. Sometimes all it takes to figure out an issue is to write out a lengthy forum post LOL!
