@mitu thanks for the response. yes, i've just tried changing this - i accessed the RGUI, navigated to Options - MSX Video Mode, and changed it from NTSC to PAL. after resuming the game, the music is slower but i no longer have control of the game - i.e., i my d-pad won't move the character and my buttons aren't mapped as they were before making that change. MSX Video Mode is the only change i made. odd...

if i put it back to NTSC and resume the game, the music is sped up but i still don't have control of the game character. i have to exit the emulator and relaunch the game to get my controller mapping back. is this as expected?

Cool! Thanks all!

@mitu

I try 3 games Final Fantasy VIII, XI and Metal Gear Solid with CD Access Method (Restart) set to synchronous. All games are with .M3U files and .CDx extentions . I use the new disk control menu.

-All games are booting fine
-I start all games from CD2 and when the game ask for CD1 the changes was succesfully
-I use a save file in FF 8 and when the game ask for CD2 the change was succesfully
-I try 3 times to change the disk without the game ask for this (it's not a normal condition) and i had a lock-up and 2 times a black screen(i choose reset from retroarch to get out from this)

Generally, the fixed version working fine without the previous lock-ups during exit and during disk swapping.

Thanks again!

@BuZz Thanks, that was exactly what I meant. I have been sitting on a Pi4 since December and I thought I would put it to work now.

I did this exact thing.

I left the "save on exit" on. I just edited the emulation station button map CFG file to remove the "favorites" button ("Y" for me) map. (I think I mapped it to nothing. It's been a while.) I can still go into the metadata in FULL mode and edit favorites (I still have a favorites list), but the favorites button do anything. I have the button available in games, just not ES. Again, I edited the CFG file in terminal with nano...or in PIXEL with text editor.

@mitu hi there. I've finally sorted it. I didn't put a space between 'sudo nano /boot' .
All works brill now. Ta. :-)

Either that or just disable the video - what good is a 5 seconds video ?

Yes, it can be run.

You should put a more descriptive title - summarizing your question/problem - instead of a generic word.

@polygonman244 Hey, there. I know this goes back a year, but emulationstation does not detect my PS Classic controller on the latest version of Retropie on a Pi4 ("no gamepad detected" after boot) and I'm just hoping you can please elaborate on what you meant by "I just used the 'map controller' setting and it worked." Do you mean the Configure Input screen after you press start in emulationstation with a recognized controller? Or is there another way to map a controller that I've missed?

Thanks for any help!!

@DimaKompot works great installing the "evdev" python package from source:

sudo apt install python-dev python-pip gcc sudo pip3 install evdev

Thanks for your work, a decent way to calibrate was needed.

@andyng Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

Your install sounds very out of date. But can't advise without more information apart from to update to a newer version - also 16.04 is probably too old now to work. Recommend 18.04 or 20.04

thanks, that did it.

You might want to change the font to something bigger (xterm -fn <fontname>) if your resolution will make the fonts tiny.
