@mitu Man I can't thank you enough, it's finally working! If you PM me your details, you have a few beers from me :) For anyone interested, after registering at screenscraper.fr and going through all SS flags arguments, I think I finally got it right: /opt/retropie/supplementary/scraper/scraper -scrape_all=true -download_images=true -download_marquees=true -download_videos=true -console_src="ss,gdb,ovgdb" -mame_src="adb,mamedb,gdb" -use_nointro_name=true -ss_user="user_name" -ss_password="password" No more errors:

Does updating RetroPie works ? If yes, then you're connected to the internet. You also have a 'Show IP' entry in the RetroPie system in Emulationstation that can show you if you are connected to a network (LAN).

Today I tried again with a new reflashed image on my pi zero w, I just added Wifi and autostart.sh entry and it worked fine. Guess I will just start over with my pi 3 to get the actual system running from network. Thank you for your support

@mitu You forgot to ask me an important question, "Is there a copy of that image?" The answer is yes!!! I am now back in business. This time I will pay close attention to what the heck I am changing. This was a great learning opportunity, however, so thank you very much for your support. =) I have two cards for the sake of clustering, in case you were wondering.

you need to shutdown turn you pie off then set your network up with raspi-conf then it works again dont know why just does well for me anyway.

Welcome to the forum. @ammowaste said in Roms on a Network Share. Challenge accepted.: permisions are okay. How do you check that? Care to show them to us?

@ByteThis I thought about hooking up a lan cable but i’m too lazy to run one from my router behind my furniture and to the pie.

@stumcbill said in Sharing ROMs / saved across network: Hi, I'm planning on having a few Raspberry Pi's connected to a few TV's and an arcade machine, and would like to use my home server to host the ROMs and saves for all of them? OK, I guess.. The one in the arcade machine will only have arcade ROMs, however, the others (on the TV's) will have a mix of everything (SNES, Mega Drive, Arcade, Amiga etc). Is this possible? Yes - you can share different ROM folders for each device type - using this method Also is there anyway to easily share bluetooth controllers between systems? Like if I have a 8bitdo SNES controller attached to the living room Pi, can I also pair it to the bedroom Pi and easily swap between them? I'm not sure that will work. I remember I had to re-pair my controller once was paired to another system.

Im done. Im not going to change anything on my raspberry anymore. I was in PIXEL and clicked "connect to server" there i got a window that said "connect to remote server" "Specify remote folder to connect". I guess i typed something wrong there cause now i dont have internet connection anymore. And i cannot find internet on the start panel. Also i get a white line about a cm wide on the left side of the screen in PIXEL EDIT: After reset the PIXEL discovered networks, and i managed to get it back on. Also, i managed to remove the white line on the left side by right clicking on it and delete. I hope later versions of PIXEL will make it just as easy to acces a pc network as it is for PC to access it. I have searched the web and i am astonished that not more people are asking the same questions. There is alot of topics on how to remote access the pie though. Again, thanks for not totally flaming a illiterate-pc noob full of questions :)

@mediamogul said in Back to Retropie, and it looks great.: @xvo You'll need to enable ssh in any version past 4.2 to use sftp. Good to have you back! Thanks

@meleu said in Retroachievements Help: I replied your other topic, and gonna repost here: I think you can get some inspiration in this thread here: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/11793/gpio-triggered-by-retroachievements That's really amazing and easy to do as you already presented a good solution :D

@siliconpi Can you post the complete verbose log on a site like pastebin.com to look at it ? Can you run zipinfo /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/mame-libretro/mame2003/roms/19xxh.zip from a terminal/ssh session to see if the zip ROM is accesible on the mountpoint ? Can you try adding forceuid=1000,forcegid=1000,rw to the mount options, just to make sure the permissions are set ok ?

Another option is you could play Pokemon ultra violet which is a rom hack that combines fire red and leaf green into one game which allows you to catch every Pokemon. However I agree this feature being added in would be nice.

What about using a USB stick, would that work for you? Check out the documentation, in the Getting Started section there is a whole page on Transferring Roms: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/ EDIT: Sorry re-read your post, emulators, not roms.....never mind

@benzine78 dont forget # is a £

@THRobinson You can play with buttons by shorting pins if you have to.

I just told my DHCP server to assign the same IP address to the Pi's MAC address.

@stoney66 said in WinSCP on different network?: could also setup openvpn... That was my first thought, too. A vpn would make both networks one, so anything else would work like on the same network.

So I found out that the problem was with automount. I umount my drive and mount it again but this time in /mnt folder. I shared that folder an transfer 25gb data on external storange. Then i reboot Raspberry pie and now nothing is working. Retropie boot in Shell and i can access it through SSH. After a reboot it displays shell and says: "A start job is running for dev-sdc1.device (time)". dev/sdc1 was my External HD. I needed to delete automount command from /etc/fstab in order to boot it.
