@mitu Ha! I was just watching Floob's video linked above and I did exactly what you posted! Thanks again to the team! Your help is always very much appreciated!

@sleve_mcdichael
Lol.. I was born in 1979... I don't remember the exact year but I'm more than sure to have had two classic gameboy.
If i remeber it's cost aroud 150.000 Lire :)

The first gameboy after a fall from a table I suffered a breakdown of the liquid crystals and after some months i buy my second gameboy.... then lost over the years :(

several years later I won a gameboy color with an Italian coca-cola contest (you need to found somethigs under the cap.....
I have also a little memories about the pocket version but in this case i don't remember to much....

I just know that nowadays I don't find myself anything.....
I also remember i have a lot of GIG Tiger.... on my childhood collection i have a lot of elettronics games like:
1 Tomy Volleyball
1 Gakken Soccer
and many many other..... all lost :(

The only handheld i have on my hand it's a perfect working "Mario Cement Factory"....

then excuse me if i'm going a little OT but I like to remember those years every now and then :)

@YFZdude
I had his cable link of classic gameboy... but I don't have big memories of its use. Probably nothing in particular to remain etched in my memory after several years ....

@muzzle
I play this on lr-snes9x on a PC.
I don't have a Pi 2 so I can't say how well that would work.

@sleve_mcdichael I've done this when I first started using overlays. I've found it works with some, not with others. Depends on where the overlay is from.. and if I decide to zoom in or zoom it out a little. I try to set my overlays/bezels to the best possible screen size for the system, and that's not always the stock size.

I eventually switched to manually setting the size and it seems to work really well . Once I'm happy with the bezel, I don't change it anyway.

BTW... Your description is probably the best I've read on the subject. Thanks for sharing it.

@omission229 The question should not be will it work, in electronics the question should be how can I make this work? The only limiting factor is your drive to learn and how much work you want to put into a project.

@chrisdrackett I reinstalled from source and now have sound again.

Please don't double post.
I've moved & merged your posts in the Help & Support category, where they belong.

I'm going to assume you're using lr-gambatte as your GB emulator.

Start a GB game. Open the RGUI by using the hotkey combo you have setup (by default: Select + X) Scroll down to Options and press A. Scroll down to GB Colorization Press left or right to cycle through the options from Custom to OFF. Press B to exit to the Quick Menu. Scroll to the top to Resume. Press A on Resume to resume the game.

The green overlay is now gone. Feel free to try out the different colour modes and see how they look.

@Tuaterra said in Problem with Visuals on Gameboy Emulators on Retropie:

When I then try and press some buttons it interacts with the game as if it's running normally as I can tell by the audio giving the sounds of me pressing start on the menu screen, etc, it's just that the visuals do not load at all.

So the video output is sent somewhere else - maybe the system has multiple displays configured, but you haven't provided any details about it.

Here I made some PlayStation Vita Overlays for Retroarch with and without the Mega Bezel Reflection Shader (HyperspaceMadness) I made more than you see here or in the video. Hope to post more soon.

You'll need to provide more details about the screen you're trying to use - does it connect via HDMI or GPIO ? What make/model is it ?

@DieKatz I just wanted to say thanks for noticing this problem. While playing Sonic 3 on my gpi I noticed that some of the sound effects weren't playing at all. I could never figure out what the problem was. It was the same stereo/mono issue as you were having. So thanks again!

so its official, i'm quiting this build.
looking forward to future projects and hoping a pi zero 2 will come along.
i just wanted to take the time to thank everyone here for the effort to make all these projects possible for us, you are doing a great job and i am very greatfull for that.
already have a pi4 at at hand with 4gb and waiting for dreamcast emulation as i see the promising flycast core inplimentation,thats my all time favorite console looking to be very well emulated.
so big thanks to all and let me know if i can donate without paypal, cause i really don't like paypal.

@Clyde
Thank you for the kind words :)
