@mitu I tried a few different BIOSes and games with no luck. Makes me wonder if there's just something wrong with my Pi, but everything else works fine, so it's a head scratcher. No luck changing the gamepad configuration for Oddworld, either. Anyway, thanks for trying to help. It's nice playing old games on my CRT using my Pi, but I'm about ready to give up and just play on my regular computer.

@snock I had a similar issue. It was fixed but you have to update the retropie-setup script before building pcsx from source.

@mitu sad day

@dankcushions Yep. I disabled the dynarec and games run fine. Here's a verbose log when the dynarec is on: https://pastebin.com/SxzD5GzU Thanks for the fix!

@xwons hi you could try arrm http://www.jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=start-en It's working on windows

@mattwinter If your pi looks like this, it’s a pi1

I don't know much about two player, but try pulling the plug, then plugging it back in without controllers. You'll get to the configure screen. Configure your second controller if it is unconfigured then press any button on your player 1 controller to get to Emulation Station. I don't know but theoretically it should work fine.

@152adam Just tried it in bin/cue format and the soundtrack is working now. So it seems likely the .chd format is the source of the issue with the cd audio. Wonder if anyone else has noticed this problem.

@Eims said in [PSX] Convert various source files into a single *.pbp: @mitu Well, I have the .bin and .cue files currently available and would like to process them further. OK, so you should be able to convert them to .pbp - isn't this what you intend to do ? If the .cue file is correct, then that's all you need. Note that some CDs don't have only 1 .cue + 1 .bin, if the CD has both a data track and multiple audio trackes, you'd have multiple .bin files. For instance, In the Hunt has alot of audio tracks, so the .cue should be accompanied by multiple .bin files - http://redump.org/disc/7676/.

I ended up rebinding all the controls through trial and error. Seems like there is no logic behind the labels. But now it works. Also, turns out the erroneous mapping was for player 2 as well, but I could copy the same mapping to player 2 after I had saved settings for the core.

@mitu Nevermind. That worked. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

@sexbeer It only works on lr-beetle-psxwhich only works on an overclocked pi4 and pc's right now. In the future, it might be fast enough to work on a pi3b+.

@mitu Glad to know I'm not the only one having the issue with Arcade's Greatest Hits - The Atari Collection 1. The fact that both of these games play properly on ePSXe, using the same BIOS (SCPH1001.bin) and ROM files, leads me to believe that it's an issue with lr-pcsx-rearmed. I suppose, worst case scenario, I could try The Atari Collection 1 on SNES and Hot Wheels Turbo Racing on N64 if myself or anyone else can't figure out the issue on PSX.

@jojin Look in the Docs, there's sections for each emulator, look over the Getting starting guide, the Emulationstation pages, then later on you can take a look over the RetroArch and Advanced configuration options. Feel free to ask in the forums also, there's no wrong question (well, almost).

I had the same problem as you, to fix it I disabled the Dynamic recompiler in the quick menu settings. It stopped the "micro stuttering" I was getting seems the PI4 can run the interpreter pretty well.

@lostless I set the system to save from RAM every second and the issue appears to be fixed not just corrected. I was also getting little periods were the sound was muted and that also seems to have stopped. I was assuming that was a different problem and that was why I did not include that in the original question, but that has stopped as well. Great information thank you.

@mitu Thanks! That was the bit I needed to change. I replaced "standard" with "dualshock" and now analog controls work :)

@h4ckerv2 I tested some things at the same time but I thing all the things together solved the issue: -Change the psx bios to another of another website -Disable the screensaver in all places (rpi and retropie), in rpi you will need to install first a screensaver and disable it after.

I've been considering compressing roms lately as I keep them uncompressed for all systems to prevent SD write cycles from extractions. These wouldn't extract or cache whatsoever, right? Also does RetroArch cache from my current .bin's and .cue's to "/tmp/Retroarch/"? I've been considering changing RetroArch's tmp to "/tmp/" (a RAM drive) but that would choke a pi3 if it tried to cache a PSX game, thus I'm trying to trim them without the need of extraction.
