@mitu Thank you.
Only option 1 was possible for me.
My next step will be to buy a DualShock 4 gamepad.
Also, I will try to install OpenMediaVault to have NAS.

Looks like entering an empty file name for the log doesn't work. You can set it to /dev/null with

LogFileName=/dev/null

and the file will not be created.

correction:

File "/home/pi/RetroPie/splashscreens/video/pistation.mp4" not found.

not sure why a "space" appeared the initial log dump

@shadowron If the OOM kicked in and the system crashed, then I'd say it's normal the log is corrupted.

@dankcushions
Good point! I was planning to just pick a representative game or two for each system and play them for the first level or so. Maybe repat a few times per game to minimize the effect of random hiccups and player actions.

@matchaman There is a command line option for that:

-missing file The file where information about ROMs that weren't scraped is added.

The script that runs the scraper from the setup menu is located at /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/supplementary/scraper.sh. It doesn't contain any -missing parameter, so I assume this option isn't used by it.

Nevertheless, adding the line params+=(-missing "/home/pi/missing.txt") right after line 76 (local params=()) should add a parameter that writes all missed roms into the file missing.txt in RetroPie's home directory.

I just tested this with my Atari 2600 collection and all roms with missing hashes were written into the missing.txt. Thanks for inspiring me to do this, I've been planning it for weeks. :)

Hey thanks really winscp on the cdi did the trick guess I'll use that to transfer roms

Also my f4 works fine turns out this wifi keyboard the Logitech k400 plus defaults the f keys to shortcuts and not function keys unless you toggle them with function
Which is hella stupid lol

Everything seems great thanks!
