      @kounabi22 Rule of thumb: Always disable tweaks like overclocking when diagnosing problems, as they are the usual suspects.

      Regarding screenshots, there's a command line tool called raspi2png. See here about how to install and use it. You'll need an ssh connection to the Pi, though.

          @kounabi22 How exactly did you fix the issue ?
          As for the sound problem, what are your audio settings in EmulationStation - what device/card did you set there ?

              Post a screenshot of your ES Audio settings. You didn't specified how you fixed your other issue, that might affect your config and cause your current problem.

                And even if it doesn't, the solution might help others with a similar problem. 👍

                    From which one? (that might've caused the problem, so it may be good to check it for errors.)

                        That's just a workaround, you probably have too little memory allocated to the GPU - either in config.txt or in EmulationStation (or both).

                        As for the audio settings, you should probably have change:

                        • Audio card should be set to 'Default'
                        • Audio device should be set to 'HDMI'
                        • OMX Player Audio device should be fine as it is, or you can set it to Alsa.

                          i try audio card default but i get no sound with audio device "hdmi" only "master" option works.
                          omx player alsa is fine.
