@mitu Gotcha. Well, I'm glad it was able to resolve itself either way. I'll keep my discussion to this issue on Folly and DTEAM's thread. I appreciate the help and insight, Mitu. Thank you!

@mitu

Thank you for the recommendation for help

I appreciate that

@folly Will do!

Yep, same error. If I'm understanding that thread correctly, the only way around it is to have an older version of MAME? Which you cannot obtain unless you had a backup of it?

@dteam said in CD-I does not want to load after updating Retropie:

Which files do you actually mean ?

zx405037p__cdi_servo_2.1__b43t__llek9215.mc68hc705c8a_withtestrom.7201
zx405042p__cdi_slave_2.0__b43t__zzmk9213.mc68hc705c8a_withtestrom.7206

Thanks.

@nes Look at this post: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3999/philips-cd-i/18

Another way to run CD-i (cdimono1) with MAME standalone (like MESS without Lr)

go in /opt/retropie/configs/cdimono1
open your emulators.cfg

add:

mame-CD-i= "/opt/retropie/emulators/mame/mame -c -autoframeskip cdimono1 -cdrm %ROM%"

To set your "Input (general)" and "Input(this Machine), follow step 10 and 11 of this Tutorial.
Tutorial: Handheld and Plug & Play systems with MAME

You can use .chd without specific MAME naming and without dummy file.

Hi,

A question for you. How well does advmess emulate philips CDI ?

My answer to your question:
I use Arcadia because this directory is automatically created when lr-mess is installed, so then there was no need to implement this in my script (no need to add cdimono1 as a system in /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg) . Basically if the system cdimono1 is not in the es_system.cfg, software will not show up in emulationstation, that's the reason why.

Actually this script was made to bundle all the knowledge found on the internet to make CDI working without having to make an enormous effort every time to get it working.

The second goal should be to implement the knowledge in an official retropie-script. In this stage the rom-directory should be made like you said.
