sudo apt remove lxplug-volumepulse

Yes! Many thanks @mitu, my menu bar is back. You're fantastic!

Hey! Thanks to you guys and the other linked posts, I found and fixed the same issue. I had some old overrides saved and sure enough, my Multitaps were "auto". Changed to "disabled" and all is well again in PSX land!

Or where to look for information?

Seems like this issue. Try pairing the controller in Switch/Android mode instead of Xinput mode.

@theissdev FYI, there's a PiBoy DMG facebook group that experimental pi is pretty responsive in: https://www.facebook.com/groups/piboy/ (although I've got to say, the couple of times I reached out to support via the exPi website, they've been crazy responsive there as well). They seem to be crazy knowledgable about their hardware and retropie.

Read my previous reply.

@blkhwks19 Got my sound back! Did a whole bunch of reserach and checked into some config.txt options and tried adding:

... and it seems to work now! Tried in my other tvs and back in this one and everything seems to work. Figured I'd report in case anyone else has spent the time and effort following my long attempt at fixing this =]

We don't support 3rd party images - ask the authors of the image about any issues. Use the image from retropie.org.uk/download and we'll be able to provide support.

@mitu thank you! Never thought about that route. I’ll get right on that and post results.

I have WebDAV enabled on my NAS, so I assuming it would be a case of just pointing it at the synology.me address I have setup?

Webdav is not the same as CIFS, so the answer would be no. I'd advise against opening your local ROM folder to the internet. If you want to take your Pi on the go, then copy some ROMs locally and use that.

Thanks for the heads up, really appreciate the help. Now for some retro gaming :D

@mitu ok thankyou

The rom folders are copied verbatim and there's no filtering done, so it will copy anything there, including any artwork scraped.

RetroPie doesn't build its own Linux kernel, it uses what Raspberry Pi OS provides. Raspberry Pi OS uses currently the 5.4.x LTS kernel branch, but there's work to upgrade to the next LTS kernel version - 5.10.

@escc1986 this topic was already posted in 2017, https://github.com/libretro/mame2010-libretro/issues/38

@diptwit there is no desktop in retropie. You are not installing retropie. Follow the guide.

@mortalwombat I keep an SSD plugged into my case and it just sits under the TV so you can't see anything for the most part.

If you really want an all-in-one solution, Argon just released a new case that holds an M.2 SSD inside.

@tzinck the link I shared mentioned how to retrieve the verbose log.

@vmonteco said in How is EmulationStation launched at boot?:

To what shell is it supposed to be related? I ensured to set back the default shell to /bin/bash for my users (both pi and root).

It's meant to be running in Bash - could work with other shells, but it's untested. If you don't have the file, then make sure you've configured autostart and enabled EmulationStation on boot.

@dankcushions yes! I did the change when I found this new emulator was ported to libretro. At the end I found that the main problem in my lr-genesis-plus-gx performance is the bilinear filter. If I turn it off it's working 58-60 fps with very good sound quality. So as I see it maybe I overloaded my raspberry pi 3B too much, if I'm correct is definitely something to have in mind if you dont have a rpi3B+ or rpi4. SegaCD is working fine too now!
