    Thank you for sharing your solution. The question remains why the save function from the shaders menu doesn't work for you and me, although the RGUI says that it did save the settings.

    If you want to dive deeper into the "failed saving config" error, please open another topic about it (for tidiness and all), start any game from that core with verbose logging via the Runcommand menu, try to (fail to) save the config, and post the contents of /dev/shm/runcommand.log in a code block in your new topic. 🙂

    @polish-potato said in Keyboard won't bring up retroarch menu.:

    Edit: Only the NES emulator does that for some reason. Ah w/e it works. :)

    You might have saved manually the RA config in RGUI for the NES system, overriding some of the configuration that RetroPie sets automatically. You can check that by looking in \\retropie\configs\nes\retroarch.cfg - if it's a large file with almost all RetroArch options, then you've saved it - or reset it - from the RGUI.
    To make the keyboard and gamepads work at the same time, I think you need to have menu_unified_controls = true in the config file.

    its a bug ... after each update, you will need to go to the spashscreen settings and make sure to change them to whatever it was already set to and the problem will be solved.

    @Hustler66 They aren't related to the speaker position and are there so that the LED strips do not sit directly behind the marquee. If they did, you would see each individual LED glowing. The position was trial and error to get a well lit marquee without actually seeing dots.

    @milok Useful for me, my gf deleted the retroarch.cfg and the one it autogenerates apparently is completely different from the default one? A lot of stuff is changed, including the entire psx interface for retroarch, and bios location.

    @1500points
    Hey everyone, if this topic is too old I’m sorry and please redirect me if possible. Now to my issue, I tried the command above via command line and it says “command not found”. I did use a command to erase all the controller configurations to make the Os think it was a first boot, however, I don’t remember the command. Can anyone help with this? I can’t get any controller to work nor can I back out of a game.

    This video shows several heat tests on the Raspberry Pi 4 with and without passive and active cooling:

    This video is interesting because it shows the FLIRC case (which doesn't come with a fan but the whole case is a heat sink) keeping the Raspberry Pi 4 cool enough and not being throttled:

    I have a FLIRC case with the original Raspberry Pi 3B and it works quite well!

    @Smythius said in Emulation Station crashed!:

    Could under-rated wires inside the case be contributing to the low power as well?

    I don't know, can you connect the power supply without those cables and test it like this?

    On a side note. do you know of a good place to get a 3.5mm to RCA Composite AV Cable that works with the RP3?

    Alas, I don't know that either, because I didn't need such a cable in my household, yet. The value of such tips also depend very much on where you live. I live in Germany; since it's 9 a.m. here and you posted about 5 hours before me, I doubt that you do, too. ;)

    The whole problem was the custom config. I had time to reinstall everything and it was the custom config. So yeah there you go.

    The config is the same, it does not matter if its pvm, monitor or consumer. You will possibly still need some tweaks , depending on your TV (to center the picture). That guide is quite old and so may be the timings he listed. I recommend looking at RGB-Pi or Retrotink configs on github, they're more up to date and work with Gert as well.

    @O-M-A-A So this happens with EVERY rom? Regardless of emulator?
    Does any emulator work as before?

    @RpiBeginner Thank you. English isn't my native language and I wasn't sure if you meant "[A while ago] I tested it with my pc [and there was no hiss], and [now on the Raspberry Pi] the hiss is still there". :)

    So it may very well be that the usb card is faulty or just not very good.

    Okay, for some reason, the screen command needs an sh after the -L on a Raspbian-based Retropie. sh starts a new shell with the script in it. On my Desktop PC running Kubuntu Linux 18.04, the command works without the sh, but on my Raspberry Pi running Retropie, it needs the sh to work as intended.

    Whatever, please try this with an sh behind -L:

    screen -S bezelproject -L sh /home/pi/RetroPie/retropiemenu/bezelproject.sh
