Pi 4 - help
-
@mitu I've removed that line and there isn't anything else running in the background... restarted the pi and still not running.
forgot to mention i'm running roms from a wd my cloud home (which you helped me with!).... could that be the issue? I ruled that out as the menu's are running slowly too...
-
@mitu having left it running the command for emulation+ said it was using 118% of cpu at one stage. now at 102%. That's without me pressing a button I've got a video snap playing in the background.. (not a screensaver, just a menu snap...)
I also have vchiq-slo+ running at 14% (both of %cpu)
-
@Jste84 this was while a game was running?
-
@quicksilver no this was just in the menu, however I'm running a N64 game and it's slightly reduced. But I'm getting 104.3% for emulation+ and 13.9% for vchiq-slo+
-
This looks like HW GPU acceleration is not working. Can you post the
$HOME/.emulationstation/es_log.txtfile ? -

@Jste84
The (``` )needs to be on it's own line above the text you wish to be in the code block. Put another set of back tics at the bottom on its own line if you wish to end the code block and have standard text after. -
I turned omx player off which is why my %'s were high... turned it back on again but still sluggish
-
So it works normally without
omxplayerturned on ? -
@mitu no - still sluggish - was testing to see if that could be the issue, forgot to put it back on again
-
Still not had any joy with this 😔 hopefully someone can help
-
So I've managed to find the issue. it seems the ps3controller driver was causing the issues.
I only used it as I couldn't get sixaxis to find my controller. Looks like I need to try and get this working.
