      @cyperghost I also had a used TRS 80 but not an Amstrad CPC. I wish I still had them all along with my cassette and 20lb floppy disk drive. It would be fun to go back and look at the BASIC differences (which I can now do on the Pi of course).

      Python would have been a big step up :)

      It's amazing what 64KB of RAM could do back then.

      @hhromic I think if this solution can be confirmed by others then the wiki can be updated. Yes it was my intension to conserve this with a forum entry.

      I think the pairing itself does not need to be explained but the fact HOW to enable pairing mode on the controller. Because you often read just ... Hold select for more then 2 seconds.... that did never work for me. And the ZERO is a bit underestemated but is really nice for kids, pygmies and hobbits.

      EDIT: Kudos for you - quick snippets are real time savers ;)

      I can see Don Quixote.

      There was a cool retro vgm player homebrew for PSP. I found it for you, here it is incase you have a psp and want to try it.

      I'm using these to find the games I didn't have, as I had a manually curated arcade collection in my setup.

      For support on the RetroFlag switch, you should ask them on their support/project page.
      I'd still recommend the script by @cyperghost, it's easy to use and has really detailed instruction both in the topic started and on the github page.

      @cyperghost I have a working scriptmodule that installs mpg123 and sets up the background music automatically. May I have your blessing to include a modified version of this volume fade script (with credit) in the distribution?

      Hello all,
      sorry to be reviving an old post, but I find myself in the same situation 3 years later and I cant seem to find a solution that keeps up with the changes through time.
      I have a Raspberry pi B+ and are running Retropie v.4.7.
      I have been able to use a DS3 controller since I setup my raspberry pi with a bluetooth dongle, which I had paired on my laptop initially with the SCPtoolkit. So that was plug and play at the time and didnt even realise this was a complicated matter.
      A few weeks ago I decided to get another controller and dongle to do the same for player 2, which obviously did not work.

      I have :
      tried to pair them separately and together,
      tried the ps3 controller drivers with both original and clone options
      tried the sixaxis option aswell.
      My results where mixed, but the botom line is that the best I could get was to have one controller through the bluetooth dongle and one on a USB.

      *Should also mention that they both work on my laptop with a single bluetooth dongle, setup with SCPtoolkit.

      I can see that you have suggested 1 option that I would like to try, but have failed to do so on my own, either because of my inexperience or because the instructions are outdated.I need to check if by disabling the wifi it allows both of them to connect and if it does to setup your script in the menu so that I can toggle it.

      When I press f4 and type wget http://raw.githubusercontent.com/crcerror/RetroPie-Shares/master/rfkill_wifi_dialog.sh -O "/home/pi/RetroPie/retropiemenu/Wifi Switch.sh"
      It says the directory or file does not exist. Now I can see the actual link of the .sh file on github is different that what is suggested, but I did try to replace it with no success.
      I also tried to change the location file to "/home/pi/RetroPie/configs/Wifi Switch.sh" hoping that by placing it there might still work but it doesnt.
      Lastly I feel that there must be something that I am missing sicne there are no other solutions out there available but also not many others discussing it, which makes me wonder has this been solved in a simple matter and I am just blind?!

      Thank you for your time and sorry for the long post, I hope you can help me.

      After giving up with every option I decided to try and type that all over again, seems it was a mistype...:S
      Anyway I can confirm this works for 2 ps ds3 controllers!!! Now I am off to show off my skills on CTR to my partner!!!

      Thank you for your support!!!

      @clyde Now I understood. Yes if you launch the joy2key command you can use up and down to switch through bash history. But the way you made it is a bit confusing as the joy2key programm is always active in background. This can cause behaviour you do not want to happen. I would suggest to use dialog function for this.

      @cyperghost Hi, Thank you for your great work with this script, but I have the Issue with the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W.
      I have installed you script and I have Connectet to Pin 5 (GPIO3) and GND a momentary switch. I also preformed the comamnd:

      raspi-gpio set PIN3 ip pu

      The shut down sequenze works fine but the zero dosn't power up again.
      Is this a zero related issue?

      raspi-gpio get

      returns:
      GPIO 3: level=1 fsel=0 func=INPUT

      Best Regards

      @meleu @Kaltinril I took a bit of action how the cleaner scripts (image and gamelist) work in general.

      @all users
      First thing that stops me from integrating a picture/video remover into the BashROMManager is that there in no evidence that every user got the same file strategy.
      Second: Time shedule!

      I tested these two wonderfull tools on my mashine and they work fine! I was able to remove entries from gamelists - after I removed some ROM files. So I these fine tools are working. But I think the responsibility is to much to remove files and work with fragile xml lists in a "automated" ROM deletion process. Please don't think the scripts are not working or the ROMManager itself is the culprit ... No! I simple have no time for extensive trouble shooting!

      Here is the link to the image-cleaner script powered by meleu, kaltinril and sano
      Here is the link to the gamelist-cleaner script powered by meleu and kaltinril

      I think a chance that I step into integrating this is, if I start to scrape all my ROMs ;) I didn't do that the last 2.5 years so you can calculate if I do this in future. I think I will integrate a "log-file" of deleted rom-files into the BashROMManager and maybe a help section how the cleaner tools should be feed manual.....

      Nevertheless if there is a strong demand maybe @Sano @hiulit @meleu @mitu and others can (if these nice guys got time) help to integrate. My github resporitory is open for everyone...

      I deeply hope, that all these scraper things will be setted in per system SQLite databases once a time. Then it will also be easier to maintain and share such things. So we have a database, were all our roms get one hash string. The hash points to metadata. As long the hash value is in the database the ROM does excitst. To renew the database we have to renew all hash values ;)
