thanks!!!! i missed this.... :) PS: i had spaces in rom's name.... removing spaces they works. now seeing the story of cfg mapping :)

We don't do any libretro core dev short of minor patches. You may have better luck on the libretro forums.

@nwgalloway So you had the es_systems.cfg in /home/pi/.emulationstation?

If you do, any new system you add will not get added to that file. Just an FYI.

Also one more thing that the new version added. A guy named decle had made a studio ii emulator for the intellivision. The game roms each have the emulator inside them with the game rom. What was added in jzintv is the -G2 flag that you can put in the emulators.cfg to give the intellivision more gram which allows those games to run in full screen instead of a windowed screen. The games are called studiovision ii.

@dudleydes hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080 works for me.

I've commented out hdmi_drive=2 and also hdmi_force_edid_audio=1 from my file.

@Mu0n

There are some annoyances from xboxdrv: it can detect the L2 and R2 triggers as ABS stuff, but jzintv refuses to detect it, since it'd want a button behavior there instead. This severely reduces the amount of maps I can do.

You can convert your controller's analog trigger input to digital by adding:

--trigger-as-button

to your xboxdrv command. It's detailed more thouroughly in the guide here.

@edmaul69

Very sad. He always seemed like the nicest guy. I remember being amazed that the Intellivision brand had such a huge presence in 'Grandma's Boy'. I don't think it had ever been featured so prominently in TV or film before, or since.

@axis_d where did you put those files?

Tried all this. Jetsons: Ways With Words still doesn't run with this ecs version of jsintv. Anyone get that to work?
Also, I don't think "select video mode for jsintvecs + rom ()" is the option that brings up "jsintvecs". That just brings up a bunch of screen res choices.

Solved! This is how you get Intellivision to work on 4.1 ! give @edmaul69 a thumbs up!

@doctorstork look in the location i mentioned. There may be shortcut links in there to the bios folder. If there is one for ecs.bin and ivoice.bin then put them in the bios folder. If not try where i mentioned first.

@edmaul69 I am connectimg directly to my rasp3 with my pc. Do i still need winscp.

@edmaul69 That looks awesome!

@BuZz Thank You for your kind and understanding response on my SNES post...it got shutdown and I wanted to respond to you. Finally someone who understood my request. I appreciate that as a new user.

@Droid you should go to intellivision.us and get jzintv with the gui. No command line with the added gui. Far better compatibility. I only use nostalgia when i am comparing crc's for rom versions.

@videofx From the output you've given, it looks like your PS3 controller is not being picked up. There should be an entry with a line similar to N: Name="Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller".

Try running cat /proc/bus/input/devices without running an Intellivision rom to see if the PS3 controller appears in the output. I presume you have it connected by USB? You may need to press the PS button to bring it out of its stale state.

Ok, that helped, thanks a bunch.

Still not getting full screen at 1920x1080... it's playing in a native size much smaller... but it's playing well with no stutters.

Here is my es_systems.cfg file for jzintv:
<system>
<name>intellivision</name>
<fullname>Intellivision</fullname>
<path>/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/intellivision</path>
<extension>.int .bin .rom .INT .BIN .ROM</extension>
<command>/opt/retropie/emulators/jzintv/bin/jzintv -v1 --kbdhackfile=/opt/retropie/emulators/jzintv/hackfile.cfg %ROM%</command>
<platform>intellivision</platform>
<theme>intellivision</theme>
</system>

Here is my emulators.cfg for Intellivision (jzintv)
jzintv = "/opt/retropie/emulators/jzintv/bin/jzintv -v1 -p -z1920x1080,8 -f1 -q /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS -q %ROM%"
default = "jzintv"

@fpanichi

I had the same issue. I went into terminal on my mac and did a more hackfile.cfg and here is what I discovered.

Textedit on mac was adding a dash at the end of each line. I went in and edited the file with Notepad and here is what I ended up with.

The file is now clear text. I restarted emulation services and it worked great.
