@pointyboot try going into retropie settings, go to retropie setup and in there update retropie-setup script and then while you are in there after that reinstall lr-pcsx-rearmed.

@edmaul69 Thanks for the reply! I tried reinstalling from source earlier today. I will give binary a try soon as I can.

@pointyboot i could be wrong but i think binary was the fix for some people having issues with this libretro core.

Does it matter which region my roms are?

edmaul69

@pointyboot not if you have the region setting in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg set to auto it shouldnt matter at all

pointyboot

Thanks! Tried setting to "Auto" but it didn't cure any woes.

Here is the output of my runcommand log:

I switched on verbose logging to see if anything popped up: http://pastebin.com/P6AwSBd4

Any difference if you rename your .cue so it doesnt have the ' or the [], just call it tony.cue or something, and then same for your .bin (changing relevant name inside the .cue file).

pointyboot

@Floob Just tried all three and no change. I've tried many other games as well. The []'s aren't actually part of the filename but in the log output for some reason. I also tried many different bin files from around the net.

Floob

In your first post you mention some file changes you have made, do you have a spare SD card to try a vanilla install of RC1 and choose the quick install option and try from there?
Have you tried a different psx emulator to see if that works?
Does the bin/cue work on your PC?

pointyboot

Good news! I tried an alternate SD card install and it worked. I'll be more mindful before i make changes to the configs from now on. Thanks everyone for your help!
