@gare You can get RetroArch to run in verbose mode by choosing to launch with verbose logging. Seems like an issue with the audio - perhaps PulseAudio/Pipewire gets stuck ? Does it happen also with standalone emulators (i.e. Mupen64plus or PPSSPP) ?

I have now gained new insights into the VSync problem, because it seems that the TV or the HDMI detection is really to blame. I just had my Raspberry Pi connected to my 13-year-old Panasonic 3D TV and the VSync option works exactly as it should. What I also noticed is that the screen modes are swapped in the video setup menu, which you can select when selecting a game before starting Amiberry via Retropie. On my old TV, the 50 Hz modes are first in the list and only then do the 60 Hz entries follow. On my Philips TV from 2014, it is the exact opposite, so that I have to set the correct mode every time I change TVs. However, it does not seem to take the 50 Hz modes into account at all or does not switch despite the selection and only runs at 60 Hz instead of 50 Hz, which I find very strange, because the TV is definitely capable of handling both refresh rates. This also works with all other emulators, whether with VICE (C64) or all RetroArch cores such as NES, SNES, Mega Drive, Arcade, etc. Just not with Amiberry, which I find very unfortunate. The Retropie team would probably have to release an update to detect the connected screen in the Amiga Setup Menu. I actually thought that HDMI screens were all standardized by now and the only explanation I can think of is that it has something to do with an error in the setup script for Amiga core.

@jamesnj

Thanks mate. All good now. Your cfg mods did the trick.

@Manukan Ahoy .. I see that the topic is old, but i have going back and forth trying to fix the crash that occurred on my Rp48gb .. I have 2 projects mem card with retropie and o e with emulationstation...
The first works great no problems .. But the second crashes after the boot... I have tried everything that is here and there (all tricks and tips) but with no results...
Finally i decide to try something random that i didnt saw in any forum - ** i have connected the raspberry pi to another tv (the main one was 55in, the second one is 10in and for my surprise it runs without problem)**

So i have no idea did i discovered the hot water... But at least that can save a few ours of pointless wandering around the forums.

If there is fix for thah to be ok with higher resolution so it wont crashes on 55in tv let me know, thanks !

Press "OK" and type reboot when the command line opens at the bottom. Worked for me.

@w1ck3rm4n sure, you will have a default installation without any (copyrighted) games.
Other way: ask the seller of your device to fix the problems or get a refund.
He sold you old sh** that doesnt even work (PSX).

@Simrose

My issue was solved by inolen and updated redream binary made available.

Thanks
Sim

@mitu oh well, mupen64plus performance is very poor on my pi zero (even overclocked) so I suspect lr-mupen64plus will be even worse so its probably not worth my time to dig to much deeper with it :)

@BigBadHodad Glad to hear it's working for you. Below is a link to a lot of good info on setting up your GPi:

https://sinisterspatula.github.io/RetroflagGpiGuides/

Specifically the advanced controller framework section will help a lot to configure emulators (like psx) that normally would require more buttons than the GPi case has. Also check out the link to the GPi discord server at the bottom of that page, it's a nice place to hang out and meet other GPi users, if you have GPi related questions.

@Nicky_S14 said in An error in the cmd is causing crashes, any ideas?:

as it works on other cards!

I'd say your card or filesystem on the card is corrupted. If flashing the RetroPie image on the card doesn't solve this problems, you should get another card.

@rascas the issue was one of my controllers that was plugged into the pi.. no idea why but once i unplugged that one from the pi it worked.

Never mind... it appears updating works.

Try the official image from the RetroPie website. Custom images are not supported here. If you have an issue with the official image we'll be glad to help. If you're using one from another source, contact who created that image for assistance.

@mitu copy that. Thank you

@jmanricecakes Hello. How do you fixed your drivers going where?

@duiz You could google this, but seems like a debugger is missing that is not installed maybe... But I would recommend asking the creator of this

I found this after 5mins of googling:

**the best way: To disable Just-In-Time debugging by editing the registry
In the Start menu, click Run.
In the Run dialog box, type regedit, then click OK.
In the Registry Editor window, locate and delete the follow registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
If your computer is running a 64-bit operating system, delete the following registry keys also:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug\Debugger
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft.NETFramework\DbgManagedDebugger
Take care not to accidentally delete or change any other registry keys.
Close the Registy Editor window.

But I wouldn't recommend editing the registry if you don't know what you are doing!

@mediamogul heyyyy so its this kit right here

no error messages just a straight freeze every 3 races or so. Tried 1 player nfl blitz its just extremely choppy. Using the guide off this website the video they supply. Using Retro pie 4.1
