Just want to add that the sound issue is still there in the most current update of the package: in the title screen and at the start of each level you only hear effects and you need to turn off / turn on music in the in-game settings which will then play the music fine - until you transition to a new level and the music is gone again.
I would add this to Github as requested but I am unsure which repository would be the correct one?

Are you using the correct program? Like win32diskimager? You cant use any iso/img program. They will always come up as corrupt

@blazein said in First boot up of retropie comes up with a command line.:

@mitu still goin to the command screen when do the login auto

That's because Emulationstation crashes and it leaves you at the command line. Try updating your packages (if you haven't done so) and if you still get the error, then you should open a new topic with this problem - it's no longer an auto-login issue - and provide the information asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

After trying everything, I gave up. I've reverted back to 4.4 and won't update until the image on the main site changes. Thanks for the help though.

No, Emulationstation doesn't have the ability to run shaders, that's something specific to RetroArch.

@mbrett said in Only 1 PVR client loads in Kodi:

I'm just happy I have my PVR running.

Fair enough.

@ballboff Didn't get that far :). Looks it's using an older release of RetroPie. Scammers.

Most 'pre-installed images' are classed as shovelware. Cram as much as they can onto an SD card with no actual effort in getting it running correctly first and with minimal, if any, after sales support including systems that most people won't want or even use and also won't take full advantage of t he RetroPie

Some systems are as 'proof'. It works but don't expect much, if anything from the emulation. Good examples are 3DO or SEGA Saturn and PSX2. They WILL run, but not at any speed worth trying to play

The same also applies for hard drives. You will never get what the actual size is quoted due to filesystem overheads and lose even more space depending what filesystem you format them to. Some take more space than others, some are very efficient filesystems, some are not

Aw cool, did not know that, I am really starting to like Linux. :)

@r4l

Hey bud. Don't know if you saw it or not, but figured I'd send you the link to the SNES compatibility list for the Pi Zero. :)

@jozzy1 Not specific to Retropie, but with owning a number of these controllers, I believe it has to do with the way the newer 4.14 kernel polls/received and processes ID data from the G3W which is a multimode controller. You can switch modes by holding the blue “home”button for 5-10 seconds. You will see the controller disconnect as “Xbox 360....” and reconnect with a gamesir ID. Then you can set the bindings for the controller config if not there already.

@zerojay I'm already using 640x480, in config file it says it is the minimum. Main issue I'm having is the low fps - on empty map it could vary from 15 to 20 (if I'll open top bar menu then it drops to 6 fps).

Just what I needed. Thanks!

Ya I have been looking into python, but instead of 'sleep' replaced that with a 'sync;sync' to check if the system is being written to. (Was told this is much better to do it twice as the fist time it might wight some code back or something I cant remember why for sure. ) But it starts to play a video prior to the rest of the code., so the video starts and then while its playing the shutdown is started and the actual shutdown is not ran until it get info back that the video is finished. This way the video can be any length I want. :)

Going to look more into python and better methods of doing the shutdown. Once finished I plan to send them the code so they can update it. Any help is apreciated. :)

Enjoy retropie! It’s class.

Thanks for the help!

I didn't do anything, but glad you got it sorted out !

@mitu said in RetroPie controller set up issue:

@ranma The problem in this topic is specific to the xpad driver, which powers the Xbox 360/One controllers, it's not a general one.
Basically, after an update of kernel, the xpad RetroPie driver was not installed and overwritten by the default one, which is sometimes incomplete depending on the model. This has been reported after the 4.4 was released, but was fixed some time ago https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/commit/f6e5a6d70512fc796a4fb535ddf1b44ea985db47.

Oh I see. I assumed as the Logitech F710 switch had to be set to X input rather than D that this issue was effectively the same as mine. I'll start a new thread when I decide to have another attempt and if the problem resurfaces. Many thanks. :-)

Thanks!
