@d33j4y excellent worked for me don’t understand what cos I thought overscan was the fix , games don’t run full screen that’s my next fix

@yowl00 Welcome to the forum.

There was a fix to Daphne by @werpu one and a half year ago (see here). It added a command line option -joynum followed by the controllers system index number, e.g. 0 or 1 to set the controller being used.

It isn't clear to me, though, if the number is the joystick index (jsX) or the event index (eventX). So, here the commands to show both of them:

evtest # lists all devices connected to an event jstest /dev/input/js0 # change 0 to 1, 2, 3 etc. to see the device using it. Exit with Ctrl-c.

@barbudreadmon
I did install that and it worked when there is one dual tank stick in there. When there is two dual tanksticks connected, the 2nd one that is connected behaves as a keyboard and not as a controller. that is why i want the second one to work like a keyboard that's acting like a controller if that makes sense

@mitu

I have tried to use ffmpeg to record alsa sound but since there is no capture device . It did not work .

Can you give more details about this

You can try looking into streaming the sound from ALSA through ffmpeg and connecting something like vlc on the PC to stream the audio.

Thanks.

My method in previous post does not guarantee sync in audio and video recording at all . So it is not an ideal solution.
Streaming audio will be a better solution as I will record audio and video on PC together.

@UberLumby You can adjust the volume just for the pcengine system by editing the retroarch.cfg in \\retropie\configs\pcengine and adding a line with the audio_volume option:

audio_volume = -1.00

Mea Culpa.
I am running original image. I think I ran a 3rd party image at one time, which caused the retropie-mount to set up all these extra folders.
I did a complete reinstall also with a new usb stick and it looks good.

Thanks,
Do I add Solved to title or do you?

@gmesmer Sorry, totally forgot about this. I'm away from my Pi tonight but I'll do that tomorrow.

Edit: I've done that now, doesn't even load up. Just black screen then back to Emulation Station.

@UberLumby Look at least my version of raspberry:)

I haven't use .chd files yet. Are a game with .chd format require more processing resources to run, than bin/cue format?

Well, 3 days later, no more weird out of frame picture! I think I can safely say that it solved it. Thanks again @mitu !

Please post some details about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@mitu thats how I had it previously.

It must be something else.

But not a big deal everything still works.
Great system retropie.
Thanks Sim

Yep, same error. If I'm understanding that thread correctly, the only way around it is to have an older version of MAME? Which you cannot obtain unless you had a backup of it?

@Crush said in SD Card running out of space.:

One last question if i may, is there a way to do the opposite of expanding the SD card? IE: strip the unused space.

Yes - see pi-shrink, it's not included in RetroPie.

@Riverstorm said in cpu governer leaves v3d only at 600mhz at one pi4 while going tot 815mhz on another pi4:

So if those calculations are correct you're going to need 74,481 cubic centimeters which is roughly 745 cubic meters for the Pi's alone. You're gonna need a fair sized room!

That's true, but a) it's cool, and b) with a little work on the interior design, you may be able to actually live in it! 🤓

(The video's creator already had shrunk the power supply quite good by serialising it.)

@mitu - I like the way you're thinking

I wanted to say that to both of you guys. One thing that remains is a proper name. Off the top of my head, the rather unspectacular "MegaPi" came up, quickly followed by "ClusterF*ck". 😉

@MeltedPineapple is the sound not working in EmulationStation only or the games also are without sound ?

@mahoneyt944 said in Has anyone tried to get MKII PLUS+/UMK3 PLUS+ working?:

Mortal Kombat 2 Plus Beta 2 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 Plus Beta 1 have been officially added to mame2003 and mame2003-plus. Update these emulators from source to play these along with many other enhancements made daily. Now bootstrapped to fix low volume and CMOS errors at boot.

ROM Names

mk2p umk3p

Pretty cool. I just set these up with both MAME 2003 (as .7z) and FB-Neo (as .7z). Best of both worlds.
