Ah, I see. So you're saying, for now, it is what it is?

My workaround is changing it to "2000" and counting when on that screen. (shrug)

@archie456 note that mame4all is redundant on pi3. see https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Arcade#step-1-choose-your-arcade-emulators

@hooperre dont know if it works with ports, my retropie version is latest 4.5.1 latest setup-script and runs on linux Xubuntu 18.04LTS.
btw, this is exact how it worked on my linux pc
its exact what i did to get music in the menus,
maybe do not forget to install mpg123 from synaptic package manager

Thanks, @mitu.
I'll try.

Is there anyone else who has ScummVm set up? What do you have in your <game>.svm?

@ilkayefe Hi! I found your question here and I'd like to do exactly the same thing - I think!
I want the date / developer etc to show when, and only when, there's metadata for that information. I just want a blank space where it currently says "Unknown", as I think makes the design a little ugly to see UNKNOWN stamped in several places.

Could you possible share with me your xml, and where you had to edit it, to change this yourself? Thank you!

@mitu Thanks Mitu! I always appreciate your quick and spot-on assistance!

I see that the lr-caprice32 has support for m3u playlists - https://github.com/libretro/libretro-cap32 - so you can create a .m3u file containing each game's disks.
Emulationstation doesn't know - yet - how to handle those files and it will not show them, though. If you use the lr-caprice32, you can create your custom es_systems.cfg - see here) - and add .m3u as known extension.

@markwkidd thanks.

Actually, it might be something that we can solve on our end on autoconfig.

Adding the following to the mapping on /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads solved it:

input_b_btn_label = "Cross (down)" input_y_btn_label = "Square (left)" input_select_btn_label = "Select" input_start_btn_label = "Start" input_up_btn_label = "D-Pad Up" input_down_btn_label = "D-Pad Down" input_left_btn_label = "D-Pad Left" input_right_btn_label = "D-Pad Right" input_a_btn_label = "Circle (right)" input_x_btn_label = "Triangle (up)" input_l_btn_label = "L1" input_r_btn_label = "R1" input_l2_btn_label = "L2" input_r2_btn_label = "R2" input_l3_btn_label = "L3" input_r3_btn_label = "R3" input_l_x_plus_axis_label = "Left Analog Right" input_l_x_minus_axis_label = "Left Analog Left" input_l_y_plus_axis_label = "Left Analog Down" input_l_y_minus_axis_label = "Left Analog Up" input_r_x_plus_axis_label = "Right Analog Right" input_r_x_minus_axis_label = "Right Analog Left" input_r_y_plus_axis_label = "Right Analog Down" input_r_y_minus_axis_label = "Right Analog Up" input_menu_toggle_btn_label = "Home"

There's a repository with lots of these mappings here, following @mitu 's thread (thank you!):

https://github.com/libretro/retroarch-joypad-autoconfig/tree/master/udev

So it's probably something that's RetroPie-specific for now.

Thanks both.

@johnes Did you configure the controller in Emulationstation as described here ? This should get you the proper mapping in Emulationstation (i.e. Start brings up the ES menu, Select the edit menu, etc.).

Please add more info about your system - as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - and specify which version are you using and which emulator do you have the behaviour your're seeing for the extra buttons.

for the future i now know the es_log.txt file could be interesting to have a look at first. Thanks

@mitu Thanks a lot, all is clear.

@quicksilver the “home” button is called “the globe”

What music do you mean?

@chubsta It's definitely the images causing an issue, especially if you have a lot of games. All of my Pi Zeros have this issue and I no longer use the videos. If you try another theme or change the UI theme settings to BASIC (I believe) you should see it become very responsive. The Zero is a minimalist board when it comes to resources but it functions extremely well for all of the systems I run on it.

@dankcushions These "mini" themes work perfect! I never thought of using 4:3 themes or were aware of them; it fixes the distortion problem and now everything's proportional, thank you :)

@darknior yeah but i dont see it happening i have over 100 ports
