      @roslof I threw the installer script and patch on my retropie-setup and it just worked. It will install any missing dependencies. If it matters, I always keep raspbian updated. The game compatibility isn't as good as lr-yabause.

        Yes, that's because yabasanshiro has a HLE approach of saturn emulation, for speed reason (makes sense for an emulator targeting arm boards).

          @pjft @Darksavior thank you both for considering my issue. I'm confident the issue is on my side somewhere.

          The MD5 for my yabasanshiro_libretro.so file is 4c302a02ba0ef0e9e1cbfdddfe5c9063
          and the last commit I have compiled is: commit 7ae0de7abc378f6077aff0fd365ab25cff58b055

          Mine MD5 is different: cfd47a92fc6ac9e7ef886d16216ada03

          I built mine in two different ways, with the same results:

          1. by cloning Buzz's lr-yabasanshiro branch and installed the module via command-line:
          sudo ~/RetroPie-Setup/retropie_packages.sh lr-yabasanshiro
          
          1. by doing as @Darksavior advised, using a clean Retro-Setup and cherry-picking Buzz's lr-yabasanshiro folder & module. Installing same command-line as above.

          MD5 is the same either way, as expected (but different from @pjft 's MD5s).

          As for my system, I've tried a "stock" config.txt and cmdline.txt file, but also tried a config.txt that is overclocked and locks HD resolution. All configurations yield the same results.

          I have updated all Raspbian packages with the "proper" sudo apt update and sudo apt full-upgrade commands. Rebuilt all dependencies via RetroPie-Setup, etc.

          As for the games, I don't think we're getting to the point of loading/parsing. I've tried every type of build (cue/bin, chd) including games confirmed to be working from others with Yabasanshiro.

          VERY strange...

              Pastebin of verbose logging: https://pastebin.com/bE9Hnb5A

              The only semi-interesting thing I'm seeing:

              [INFO] [Video]: Graphics driver did not initialize an input driver. Attempting to pick a suitable driver.
              [INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #0 (/dev/input/event0).
              [INFO] [udev]: Mouse #0 (/dev/input/event1).
              [INFO] [udev]: Mouse #1 (/dev/input/mouse0).
              [INFO] [Joypad]: Found joypad driver: "udev".
              [INFO] [Video]: Found display server: null

              But I'm also seeing this when I run Yabause (successfully). So not alarming.

              While I stew more on this, going to dig deeper and see if @Darksavior 's suggestion that it might be a game compatibility issue. I have already tried a ton of files/sources, but maybe there's something else I'm missing.

                @roslof I just compiled it completely from source, and this is the MD5:

                4c302a02ba0ef0e9e1cbfdddfe5c9063  yabasanshiro_libretro.so
                

                Try this binary and let me know how it goes:

                What RetroArch video driver are you using?

                  @pjft Thank you for the binary. Confirmed MD5 matches the value you previously posted.
                  Unfortunately, having the same issue, but it's GREAT to rule out the binary!

                  I'm using GL for the RetroArch Video Driver. Also tried GL Core.

                    @roslof Post some details of your set up. How did you install RetroPie ? Just to check - you're not running things from the Desktop or something are you ?

                          I set up this system last year. Buster from image. RetroPie from DL. Saved original boot options. Using clean RetroPie-Setup. Currently running 80 systems.

                          The only unusual thing I recall is when I worked with you on downloading a WIP MESA driver. I used a script you provided a couple/few months back. Otherwise, I stay on top of updates and have (otherwise) been running stable.

                              The only meaningful difference in our logs is the usage of a different font for the XMB and the fact that I disabled the zfast shader.

                              Oh, and that you're on a 4k screen?

                                  Interestingly enough, it is disabled. Not sure why it's appearing in the logs. From my retroarch.cfg file:

                                  cheevos_auto_screenshot = "false"
                                  cheevos_badges_enable = "false"
                                  cheevos_enable = "false"
                                  cheevos_hardcore_mode_enable = "false"
                                  cheevos_leaderboards_enable = "false"
                                  cheevos_password = ""
                                  cheevos_richpresence_enable = "true"
                                  cheevos_test_unofficial = "false"
                                  cheevos_token = ""
                                  cheevos_username = ""
                                  cheevos_verbose_enable = "false"
                                  

                                  Cheevos slider shows as off/disabled when viewing via the RetroArch GUI. Not sure why it's showing in the log.

                                    Correct. I do have multiple config.txt files at the ready, and when diagnosing, I switch between the original "stock" image (that installed with Buster) and a modified one that sets HD resolution. Neither work with Yabasanshiro, but here is the "stock" version for reference: https://pastebin.com/3Q8jjV2e

                                    I have also tested with the shader enabled/disabled, as well as the overlay and any other custom settings. Same issue regardless of setting.

                                      @roslof that's an awesomely customized config.txt file for a "stock" config. :)

                                      Can you try from here, and then if it works see what can help?

                                        Thanks for the help again, pjft.

                                        Oh! I'm wondering if you saw my initial link, where I posted my modified config.txt by mistake. I fixed the link and it's similar to yours in most ways.

                                        Can you try from here, and then if it works see what can help?

                                        Tried yours. Rebooted and such. No change in symptom unfortunately.

                                        Feels like I'm wasting everybody's time. Wondering if 1) It's related to playing with MESA with Buzz a couple months back, or 2) ROM structure.

                                        Otherwise, stumped. I'll eventually figure this out, but I'm dreading coming back here and posting the solution -- assuming I did something, somewhere stupid.

                                        Appreciate everyone's help.

                                          @roslof I might have seen a previous link then:)

                                          Well, would you try a plain .cue/.bin ROM instead of CHD? It's a last resort but go at it.

                                            @pjft yes, I have tried both formats and with multiple versions. ROMs/disks that work with lr-yabause and are known to work with lr-yabasanshiro. I'll see if I can find something that works.
