      Is there a way to have emulationstation only play a video once instead of looping?

      @old_arcade_dude I would also like this as a feature, the video doesn't need to play more than once and after that it should fade away leaving only the boxart.

      @steeluth said in Retropie ES config 3B+:

      Following the guide I first installed the Bookworm from here > Raspberry Pi OS with desktop and recommended software and then retropie on top using image files provided and all went well.

      You basically re-wrote the RetroPie image on the sdcard, over the newer RaspiOS image that you installed initially - while you may have the latest RetroPie version, you're still using an older version of RaspiOS (based on Debian buster).

      The RetroPie image is using by default the pi user to operate, if you're using a different username, the installed front-end and emulators will not work. I advise you to re-flash the RetroPie image from the download page for your Pi model and boot it up, then continue from there. The system should reboot on the 1st start and then it will start automatically with EmulationStation.

      If you want to use a newer RaspiOS, then you can install the Lite version and manually install RetroPie as described in the docs.

      @mitu Thank you so much! This fixed the problem. I was sure it wasn't a wiring issue, but I guess it goes to show how little I really know about computers, lol. Thanks for the help :)

      @arvis1 NEVERMIND, i found the issue. In this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/34661/solved-remove-pulseaudio-and-revert-back-to-alsa/3
      The issue was that using purge on pulseaudio did not fully uninstall, so you have to go into the retropie setup as detailed in this guide.

      I ended up fixing the problem on my own.

      The issue was that Drastic and Retroarch were trying to render the resolution at 640W x 480H, which would cause squishing issues.

      By adding in:

      hdmi_cvt 480 640 60

      Into the config.txt, I was able to give drastic another resolution to render at, solving the issue. For retroarch, I made the auto fullscreens resolution the 480W x 640H that the display was native to, which also solved the squishing.

      Is the controller configuration saved in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads ? Do you see a .cfg flie there for the controller ? If yes, can you post the contents of the file surrounded by code tags here, in the topic ?

      @umxp02 Hello thread from long ago :)

      I ended up moving to Batocera with my Pi 4 and had no issues with screens at all. I eventually got a Pi 5 for Batocera.

      My Pi 4... I repurposed it to run Plex, and don't need a screen since I can control it from my Mac.

      Yeah this issue was a brain buster, so I'm happy I moved on.

      It can be a lot to process. How far in before you got lost?

      Look for an entry that represents your device. Scan for the line marked H: Handlers=, and make note of the event number. Example:

      pi@retropie:~ $ cat /proc/bus/input/devices I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c21f Version=0305 N: Name="Logitech Gamepad F710" P: Phys=usb-0000:01:00.0-1.2.2/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/scb/fd500000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.2/1-1.2.2:1.0/input/input73 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=event0 js0 B: PROP=0 B: EV=20000b B: KEY=7cdb0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 B: ABS=3003f B: FF=1 7030000 0 0 I: Bus=0003 Vendor=046d Product=c315 Version=0110 N: Name="Logitech Logitech USB Keyboard" P: Phys=usb-0000:01:00.0-1.2.4/input0 S: Sysfs=/devices/platform/scb/fd500000.pcie/pci0000:00/0000:00:00.0/0000:01:00.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.2/1-1.2.4/1-1.2.4:1.0/0003:046D:C315.0030/input/input74 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=sysrq kbd leds event1 B: PROP=0 B: EV=120013 B: KEY=10000 7 ff800000 7ff febeffdf ffefffff ffffffff fffffffe B: MSC=10 B: LED=1f

      Truthfully? Here.

      @dookieshooter You should delete/rename es_input.cfg and then re-install the emulationstation package, this would generate the correct es_input.cfg file. You'll have to re-configure your controls next time ES boots.

      Forgive my ignorance but how would I tell a single rom to use FBNeo?

      You can use the runcommand launch menu to choose which emulator runs a rom.

      Looks like the configuration is not properly saved, though it's not clear for what reason. Can you add more info about your setup, as asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first ?
      Make sure your storage/sd card is not full.
