VIDEO SCREENSAVER - Black Screen with OMX on and Controls Not working

2Play

@dreamcastkid Any idea on the controls not working to start the game any longer.
to me it looks not rpie setup script but ES binary related.
and last 2 versions have same behavior. both i got frm core packages binary update
so its all default
os updated official Dec

@mitu thank you. I have searched here but didnt find anything current.

You didn't add any info about your system.

@mitu you are correct

OS Latest Updates Raspbian Buster 10
ES 2.9.3rp & ES 2.9.6rp
Model : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1 2GB

omxplayer doesn't support subtitles on the Pi4, you either have to disable it if you want subtitles or disable subtitles to keep omxplayer.

Noted but none knows why start a game stopped working from video screen saver in my understanding correct?

mitu

The game start is bound to start - for both images and video screensavers. For videos it might have been possible to use any button, but right now they're both using the same key.
More details in the discussion here.

@mitu gm from here
the link goes to "Error loading new systems"

Unfo the game wont start from the video screensaver .
the only button working is SELECT as per my initial post that simply goes to next random video. any other button including start goes back to ES

i have to figure out what the culprit is. i dont know if i can find any info in the ES log but il check

any other tips id like to thank you in advance.
Thank you @mitu for your expertise and help

@mitu
I have tested an older backup I had prior 5.4.xx.
It has 4.19.118 kernel.
START button works fine on video screensaver.

Of course black screen on pi4 is as we talked above (not concerned)

I dont know what might have changed with newer 5 kernel setup. I ll test a clean RPie base and report back.

@mitu @pjft
My only problem is that START button does not trigger the rom to start.

My understanding is that you have this compiled in ES
I have removed ES and added from binary.

I can see one of the requirements is VLC now.
I removed VLC and ES.
Installed from BINARY and both installed ok

START still cant trigger the ROM. Any ideas what might have been broken?

pjft

@2play Unless something with SDL is causing it to register buttons differently, thus detecting <something different> before the start button it expects.

I thought I had answered this in another thread, but there is an option in the ES menu to actually enable or disable this behavior ("enable screensaver controls", I believe). Check whether that's enabled.

Other than this, I'm out of options. Nothing changed in ES.

EDIT: what controller are you using, and is it plugged or bluetooth? Does this happen with other controllers - or even a plain usb keyboard?

2Play

@pjft Thank you
i do have them enabled in ES
Tried both my USB BT KB, normal USB KB. and a 3rd party PS3 alike wired controller. A friend tried with ps4 but same
Ill check the SDL as I keep compiling things on my base to test things

But i think you gave a me a hint to check couple things

@pjft
Quick update on this.
I had a working image and after latest full upgrade OS applied yesterday, feature is broken (game wont start from video screensaver with START).

Linux 5.10.17-v7l+ armv7l GNU/Linux - Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Model : Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1

its very weird.
Here is a pastebin of what i managed to gather on packs changed

https://pastebin.com/RCCbB5sK

@2play I'm quite at a loss here, but can you share the ES log as well, and potentially even running it with --debug (or. whatever the command is to get debug logging)?

What type of controller are you using, does it move to the next game during screensaver if you press "right", is it only start that doesn't work?

2Play

@pjft
tx for reply
just burned back an older backup.
Linux 5.4.83 based was ok and still ok. I think up to 5.10.11
It broke when upped to 5.10.17 as per my last

I have a third party PS alike controller (esperanza - Microntec USB)
Yes it moves right left to next video.
But mostly I use a 2.4G Mini Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad Backlight you know these small ones to be used with media boxes

ill upgrade the OS again on above and see again. ill try to export full process

Reverting after OS upgrade and I will run ES with --degub option

2Play

@pjft
Im out of words...
I burned my backup, did full distro upgrade (updated last pastebin above)
reboot
Tested video scr and worked ok!
Exit to CLi, run with emulationstation --debug
tested again and works ok.
Here is the pastebin with related events called ok!

https://pastebin.com/D23jS7Vd

I dont know what to say as I did nothing more.

If happens i ll run again with --debug and post if of any help

Thank you again for your time and above reply

@pjft
As im trying to find what has caused this behavior i revisited the "broken" system.
Updated from binary ES,
Reset controller configuration
Reboot wiht ES degub enabled

Remapped my keyboard and started screensaver.
Am i right to say that START value doesnt post 1 just 0

@2play So, if you can replicate working behavior and non-working on the same system depending on the binary, I'd be inclined to have us figure out if there was a specific commit that changed the behavior.

I am not aware of any such commit, but if you'd want to share the full log files over at, say, pastebin, that may help. Have you tried both emulationstation-dev and emulationstation binaries? More info on the build dates/etc would help.

I'll take a look at the code, and test it out on my end.
