I deleted the controller config at
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig/LogitechGamepadF710.cfg
and the button conflict was resolved. Don't know why this file and the core specific retroarch.cfg would be in conflict or over riding each other.

not a shader, but you can add a scanline effect. open /opt/retropie/configs/snes/snes9x.cfg and change DisplayEffect=0 to DisplayEffect=1

i'm basing this on:
https://github.com/RetroPie/pisnes/blob/master/snes9x.cfg.template#L65

@emilholm Sounds like the adapter or controller is bad if there is nothing on JSTEST. That means that the OS isn't seeing the controller.

thanks guys will try it tonight

So Iv'e been working on it and got the drivers to install from source and the BT paired. The controler worked via BT in the retropie setup, as soon as i exited it crashed the system. I rebooted and paired again , rumble scan pair, CRASH...

Take a look in the config directory to truly verify if it is saving or not. It likely is, but it is pulling up a different config when you start the emulator.

wait, sorry i needed to restart retropie, it seems to be up now. thank you

Okay, installed everything from a fresh RetroPie 4.1 image and also clean install of AM from source. I'm on version 2.2.0 of AM and everything is working as expected. The ghosted keys are no longer an issue, and as a result I don't need to futz with different key settings for exiting a game in retroarch. I'd like to figure out why that was an issue for me, but for now what I have is working. In windows I programmed the "exit" buttons for my minipacs with the WinIPac program to be macros of "start+select" and it works perfectly.

As a side note, it seems the issue was with sfml-pi. This explains why my 2.2.0 AM was still giving me issues. I had not gone back all the way in the steps to the sfml-pi portion.

Thanks all.

@BuZz Thanks!

The default source (thegamesdb) had great coverage of boxart so that was the default. If you want to do something else you can use something like -console_img="s,b" to use a screen shot if it exists then fall back to box art, etc.

Or you can do as @columboscoat mentioned and you have access to a windows machine you can try UXS. It uses ScreenScraper which is available in my script (-use_gdb=false -use_ss) but it also has some other neat image options.

thanks a lot mate :)

@mike27277 said in Scraper Issues:

trying to mark as solved cant find the button

The options are located at the bottom right of your first post in a pull-down menu labeled 'Topic Tools'.

@legendofthestorm yeah, fs errors are rarely good. Not sure how your corruption happened but never pull the plug on a working Pi. Glad you got it sorted.

@cqb30 so why are you asking for support here? Go ask Lady Ada...

@protoman

I just edited /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/Xbox360WirelessReceiver(XBOX).cfg and changed:

input_enable_hotkey_btn = 10 #Guide

If that doesn't work then make sure to put " (quotes) around the number 10 or if you already have the quotes then remove them.

@hankchad You aren't alone. I am trying to figure out that same thing. I went to Retroarch and found where it mentioned the esc key. I bound a arcade button to that same command which is Exit Retroarch. Of course, that didn't work. It will close Retroarch but will not exit from a game.

I sat down and played a couple PSX games today. CTR seemed to go okay, along with a short Gran Turismo stint. After about half a race in Colin McRae 2.0 though the Pi3 froze. So it looks like I am running hot with the enhanced resolution enabled.

Turned on my old PSU fan setup and everything was at 50 or under and no more freezing. I guess I wasn't testing PSX for long enough before when I thought it wasn't getting too hot.
