      @synersist if you are using screenscraper.fr it is down right now.

      The Retro Arena posted

      screenscraper.fr "We are sorry to have to close the site and the API until minimum Thursday morning. Our database has suffered damage from these mysql indexes.
      We will try to recreate them after deleting them to see if that fixes the current mysql connection problems.
      Rest assured we haven't lost any data
      Thank you again for your patience."

      @xionyus as I’ve told countless others that are new here with prebuilt systems, retropie is not a product you buy, but a hobbyist project that lets people build their own retro console. There is no firmware, there is no single programmer. It’s a mishmash of many different programs and projects by many different people. The retropie developers just brought them all together into a nice tidy little package. But it far from a full retail package.
      The reason why we can’t help you is a lot of us know how retropie is supposed to work out of the box, with the base image. And is pretty simple. If something goes wrong, it requires your knowledge of what you did to figure out what’s going on. We have no idea what a 3rd party did, therefore can’t help.
      Try starting over and enjoy the journey of how all the pieces work together, like how many of us started.

      @oli said in Updated : New to retropie - no audio on Retropie using new Rasberry Pi 400:

      The background music is only playing in the main menu.

      RetroPie doesn't include any background music - are you using a RetroPie standard install image ? Please open a new topic and add your info, as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

      @gogoretro yes. In general:

      For an snes labeled controller, alter labels for x-box

      Keyboard keys = controller buttons

      Arrows = direction buttons
      Z = B
      X = A
      A = Y
      S = W
      Q = L1
      W = R1
      Etc

      @siwobrody Me neither. As a last check you can try setting the savestate_directory key in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg to something else, for example savestate_directory = "/home/pi".

      By the way, Linux doesn't have any drive letters, but only one big directory tree where you "mount" any additional drives to any of its branches.

      If you're interested, see here for more about that. 🤓

      @johnnytwolegs It entirely depends on your network setup.

      If you NAS is connected to the internet, then I guess it's a matter of configuring the firewall to allow access to the CIFS ports and making sure that file sharing is enabled for the internet interface. If you have a router in-between, you might need to forward the CIFS ports from the network interface to your NAS box.

      Again, a configuration I strongly suggest against, since it exposes your NAS to the internet.

      @kennyp55 We don't support pre-loaded systems or 3rd party images. Start with the image from retropie.org.uk/download and follow the instructions to install it - it's all in the Docs.

      The installer looks pretty simple - did it create the retrogame.cfg file in /boot ? Are you running the installer as root (via sudo), as indicated in the instructions ?

      @studysession double check your GPIO connection. Also try switching to unsafe shutdown (switch in the case PCB) if you have that and see if you have it to power on.
