      Great interview Buzz! Thanks to the whole Retropie team and anyone who helps noobs like me!

      Would be cool to see in the future possibly a RetroPie podcast. Imo it would be very interesting and the community is huge. I'm sure all you guys are very well off, but the podcast game brings big bucks once you get sponsors from what i hear.

        @BuZz Any chance you can get some new versions for JZintv or CoolCV for 4.5 ?
        I'd submit the PRs, but they're hosted on the RP site.

        • jzintv has had some newer versions - latest form last December.
        • coolcv latest version is from 2017, I think RetroPie has an older version.

          @mitu I'll update. You can submit a PR with our archive URL and I can update the archives also if you prefer. (With same name / archive structure).

            Another recent podcast (not mine) that brings up some important points regarding Emulation and RetroPie. Will post this on our main blog. Much appreciated to know there are others that care. I like this guy.

              @dan18774 why do you think we are very well off?

                @BuZz said in Interview with me on the DigitalSoup podcast:

                You can submit a PR with our archive URL

                Let's see if I can figure it out.

                  @buzz it seems I was wrong about CoolCV, it is the latest version (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/2401).

                  For jzintv, I can't figure out how to submit an archive and a PR at the same time - for some reason I thought this would be possible.
                  Anyway, I've tested jzintv and had to massage the Makefile to get it to compile (git here) on a Pi. I'll test on an x86 machine and submit a PR tomorrow with the new name.

                      @mitu I'll take a look at the jzintv update. May be quicker for me to do it, since I have to update the archive anyway.

                      Don't think the Makefile needs adjusting btw. Will do a PR in a min.

                        BTW it might be worth splitting this chat off this topic as it's unrelated to the podcast.

                          @BuZz the more knowledge someone has the better off they are in real life most the time. At least you guys are comfortable i assume.

                            @dan18774 If they are born in the right place with opportunities. I wouldn't say those that are very well off are likely to be smart either. Also to make the point about ability - perhaps we measure some talents above others.. and we shouldn't.

                            But I can assure you my motivation with RetroPie isn't financial but I would like to spend more time on it if I could afford to (hence things like my patreon).

                            I'm happy to do things like that, but you will notice no banner adverts and stuff on the site. Unlike some sites that distribute images with ROMs. I have strong opinions on doing things the right way.

                            I wouldn't have the time for a podcast btw. But may appear on some others depending on free time. Thanks.

                              @BuZz well said and this community is great you guys created with Retropie. Great to see you aren't motivated money. I have seen people charge money to help someone with something giving there hour rate. And beg people to donate to there paypal as there giving the most basic info.

                              Very cool on your stance with ads sir. And i figured you and your team would be far to busy for a podcast. Just really pisses me off that people give RetroPie bad name on ebay, craigslist, ect. I flag that stuff whenever i see it. Also flag stuff with people selling devices with Kodi claiming ''free everything''. Probably does absolutely nothing in the long run sadly.

                              Please let us know if you or your team ever do any more podcasts.

                              Thanks again for all you guys do!
