Every time I play dreamcast, displays the setting screen time/date

This should do it. The old one had dl=0 which makes it download the html page.

 cd /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin
 sudo mv reicast reicast_old    #if you want to be safe and backup your old reicast file
 sudo rm reicast    #delete the old one if you didn't back it up with the step above
 sudo wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh1umn50tqgxrg1/reicast?dl=1
 sudo chmod 755 reicast

@madmodder123 Might just be the way I typed the command, but when I did it, it downloaded a file called "reicast?dl=1". mving the file to just be named reicast seems to work though, and it works just fine.

Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to do it though Filezilla instead of using USB. I recently got mine setup at a local convention (I did installed the games btw). I'm still new to it and for some reasons i keep getting permission denied whenever i did stuff. Like trying to rename the old reicast file.

Honestly, I do want to know how to fix this so i can play Dreamcast games. If anyone knows, then explain how to get it working.

@jonathanknight You cannot do it via USB, since the transfer method doesn't work for arbitrary files. You can copy the file(s) directly to /home/pi, then use the command line (see the commands above) to copy/move then to the right location.

@mitu Okay, i did that. but now i facing a new problem! Reicast will not start up and I am left wondering what I did wrong. Seriously guys, what did i do wrong!

...ist working now. Issue was fixed. You have to reboot your RasPi.

For me this worked but, i too got a file called reicast?dl=1 that i had to
sudo mv reicast\dl=1 reicast
then
sudo chmod 755 reicast

Maybe >sudo wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/dh1umn50tqgxrg1/reicast is enough?

Thanks to all.
