@xtv said in Read psx roms off SD card & USB:

One solution could be splitting this into two subdirectories, like A-J and K-Z, one of them being a symlink to the USB drive.

That would be a simple visual solution to "hide" the separate-location structure. You could also split it on release year or franchise to help hide the fact.

it's the first option in that menu!!!
sorry guys - all fixed - thanks for your patience and help.

getting the games working is more fun than the games.....maybe.

@BJRetro I think I did the lr. But when I went to update, I could not find the binary option. Only from source. I'm also not sure what the difference is :s
Thanks for the tip, this might be it. Will look up how to do it.

@brunozero You can just use the .PBP file.

Please add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first to your post.
The controller configuration should be done in Emulationstation, it's then automatically translated into RetroArch configuration file(s) so you don't have to re-configure your controller in again in RetroArch.

Oh sorry misunderstood. Well, it's a little bit all over the place. Before overclocking, one TV I tried had 720p. It had occasional audio cut outs. Another TV had external speakers and had a resolution of 1920x1080. That one had terrible audio drop outs that lasted the longest. The last one I tried was at 3,840x2,160 and was working better than the other two. The audio dropouts were there but they didn't last as long.

Since that 720p TV still had audio drop outs, I don't think that could be the solution. But I haven't tried changing the resolution for any of the TVs so I'm not 100% sure.
