        Hi,

        I'm having the same issues. I updated to version 4.0 RC1 and updated all modules but without luck. Maybe a setting in a config file is not correct or some directy has been changed.

            Thx! I created the .cue files and now it works.
            A little different thing concerning the n64 emulation: Somehow the "smooth video" function doesn't seem to work anymore. I set "video_smooth = "true"" in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg but I can clearly see it dosn't work.

            Btw.: Does smooth video also apply to PSX games?

              @Floob thx had missed the line, were it says "if your psx game is a .ecm extension, its a compressed file that needs to be extracted with ecmtools

                GEMC does the job, it's better compared to the commandline unpacker.

                    @skiddlz a cue file is essentially a text file but with .cue as the extension, it tells the BIN file about location of audio. I'm pretty sure there is a zipped library of all cue files for psx games out there somewhere...
