      @Viktorbe said in Retropie crashes when choosing any option:

      When istart Retropie via terminal. Everything works fine.

      As explained in the installation page you used, we don't support using the desktop on the Pi, the front-end should be started from the terminal, as you have - forcibly - discovered.

      EDIT: make sure you update your post in the other forums, so users there know what was the solution.

      @mitu I have a raspberry pi model 3b+ and I use this to power my raspberry pi (12v to 5v converter inside unit, 2.5A) while using the joysticks for my arcade machine: https://www.jaycar.com.au/raspberry-pi-retro-arcade-game-console-with-hdmi-port/p/XC9062

      @Thorr69 could you elaborate on what file that would be? When I had used a 16gb USB, the romset I had totalled almost 16GB and it seemed to have been causing issues until I swapped to a larger capacity USB so I doubt it would have been a log file issue?

      @fbrier said in Bluetooth PS3 controller connected wirelessly, but no paired devices:

      I am guessing what I should see, after pressing the PS3 button, is that all 4 LEDs on the front of the controller will blink, then the first one should become solid, as occurs when paired with an actual PS3 unit.

      Pretty much, yes. Can you try resetting the controller ? You are connecting it with the USB cable to the Pi, right ?

      I've now managed to get this working with the standard Retropie 4.8 image on a Raspberry Pi 4b!

      OP updated with the new instructions!

      The full process is quite some work and not tested together with other emulators. Updates to Mesa, SDL and FFmpeg are neccessary for Retropie 4.8.

      @dan81 said in unmet dependencies on 2020-08-20-raspios-buster-arm64:

      so , the only benefit to run retropie on 64bit system (on raspberry) is use dolphin-emu

      Check out this thread if you really want to push for Gamecube on the Pi.
      https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/28459/latest-gamecube-developments-on-pi4

      From reading that, some games work ok, but many others are not likely to run well enough to enjoy playing them. Running Dolphin is a pretty big job for a Pi 4.

      EDIT: As development continues on the various drivers and even Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit, this situation could improve. But keep in mind many of these things are outside of the control of the RetroPie project.

      @Derbyste Happy to help. But I mean, if you're interested in MegaDrive, you can get the MegaPi case for the RPI 3b which is VERY nice in my opinion (I personally own one).

      Addendum: You could (re-)compress the uncompressed .cue and .bin pairs (or multiples) to the CHD format with will often shrink them up to around 50% of their former size and put them into just one file you can drop into your roms/psx directory. In my experience, those CHDs will run in 80-90% of the cases.

      This one-liner will do that with all cue files and their corresponding bin files in the current directory.

      for i in *.cue; do chdman createcd -i "$i" -o "${i%%.*}.chd"; done

      Important: This will cut off the filenames after the first dot for the output CHD filenames. Remove one % from "${i%%.*}.chd to cut only the last extension for compatibility with filenames with multiple dots.

      Beware though that this will only work with single-disk games. For storing multiple disks in one container you'll need the PBP format, which is also supported by Retropie's PSX emulators.

      That said, be sure to check https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/ to see which emulators support CHD if you want to go that road.

      It looks like your installation is quite old and I'd say updating will not work, (Unsupported OS), and the current version does not support your - very old - Raspbian version.

      If you'd like to use a current version, then use the image from retropie.org.uk/download and re-image your sdcard. You can back-up your ROMs via file shares - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Updating-RetroPie/#making-a-backup-option-2.

      @mat 4Gb is already pretty useless if you only intend to run Retropie on it.

      @Ecks said in The new Raspberry Pi 4 is here!!:

      I am just curious but what is the progress right now with RetroPie for the Pi 4 at the moment and sorry for asking just waiting for a build of it first before i would buy the Pi 4 and do you guys think the 2gb model would be more than enough as well?

      There's no ETA as far as a release or updates beyond the github that have been provided. I doubt you will get a different answer from the Retropie team. You can follow the github: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/2749

      Most people view 2 GB as more than enough to run emulators and emulationstation proper. I personally jumped for the 4 GB as to be ahead of any changes.

      Oh ok well i wanted to buy the 4gb model but here in Canada it is a little much plus for certain arcades games i want to try out in my mind i tend to think 2gb would be enough because the first game i want to test out for sure is Killer instinct 1 and 2.
