@mitu That worked !!! 3 days that took and sleepless nights lol . Here's some code for people who may have the same problem Edit Autostart.sh emulationstation --resolution W H --windowed --screenoffset X Y Thanks a lot !

@merkury187 said in video snaps and core help: How do you enable Use Local Art? I have my videos named "romname.mp4" so I will rename them to "romname-video.mp4" Open the Emulationstation menu with Start and try looking through the available options - I think it's in the UI sub-menu (?). Also, so that is what that little pop up box is for, not sure how I missed that in the Docs. What does this part mean: "(the bottom face button is recommended as to not accidentally change anything) " ? Use the A or B buttons.

@mitu said in Custom safe shutdown text / screen: @lesk No, you'll need to edit the /etc/rc.local file and replace the 1st line (which should have been added by the RetroFlag script) with the 2nd one. Use sudo nano /etc/rc.local to edit the file. Okay thanks! I will give this a shot ^^

Pi-hole

@randallwoodworks On the right you have the SNES (virtual) controller buttons, on the left you have the Gamepad/Keyboard inputs. Your screenshot shows the SNES core mapping, so it might be different for arcade games, because each cabinet might have a different set of buttons.

The bootleg version of Moonwalker is the only one which will work in the older MAME cores, e.g 2000 2003

The power supply im using is working fine i fixed that issue The issues i keep running into keep changing now for some reason when i try to set up the wifi country in the retropie settings i get an error saying "could not communicate with wpa_supplicant" and then it says "there was an error running option I4 change wifi country" what do i need to do to fix this issue? i believe it is because of this that the ethernet on the raspberrypi isnt being accepted either

@rkoster Hi Raph, thanxalot! Best wishes, Joern

@petrockblog Thanks for your response! When you succeed, I'll keep the system I have now and buy the ControlBlock for my new Pi 4. Anyway, sounds good and promising, Good luck! BR.

@Polybius22 By all means. As I said, I'm not against having that as an option. It's just that my time is fairly limited these days, so I don't want to get anyone's hopes up that this is something I'd pick up anytime soon. If you need help, let me know. I believe the hardest part for someone who doesn't know the code base is actually just implementing the option - adding the system is a one line thing somewhere over FileData or similar. Happy to guide you through that if it helps. Thanks.

@demonscythe hey, i have 2 m30 controllers and work great with raspberry pi. how are you setting up your controls in emulationstation, and which games are you playing. I had this issue Ok by default sega genesis will be funny like X will be A and A will be B and B will be C, but lets start with emulation station, i mapped my keys with b is a and a is b. For example When mapping set B on controller as A and switch them X is y and Y is X Z is L shoulder and C is R shoulder L trigger is top L and R is top right. Also make sure you are pairing with Switch mode. Start+Y then press pair and reboot your raspberry pi. Hope this helps

@mitu yes

@quicksilver I completely agree. Though if it could be ported over, I'm sure improvements could then be made to the point of 'somewhat decent' playability maybe on an upcoming pi 5 or even an overclocked pi 4 . Here is a video of dolphin running well at 2x native res on a: intel pentium b950 @ 2.10 Ghz (2c 2t) nvidia geforce gt 520m 1GB 4GB ddr3 ram Not expecting results anywhere near this, though gives a good idea of the state of gamecube / wii emulation and the relatively low computing power needed.

I saw this thread, so I set up lr-hatari, got it working, and updated the docs, mostly just from the core's github readme. It worked pretty much first try, but the docs previously only covered Hatari standalone. One thing I am not clear on is how you get the core to look at different BIOS files in order to emulate the STE or Falcon, but I haven't tried that yet.

Like @deepthaw mentioned, more legal ways: Where to (legally) acquire content to play on RetroPie https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/84946 Legal game sources https://retropie.org.uk/forum/post/6393

@Electron there is a rotation screen parameter you can add to /boot/config.txt, but it adds some extra processing to the GPU and had a performance impact. Try it out and see how it works.

@yogsodoth interesting that it didn't work, I've never had a problem with Win32DiskImager yet. But it's good to know if I run across a similar issue I can always try out etcher. @mitu your frequency of helping people never ceases to amaze me. Thank you for all the time you put into helping all of us.

thank you for all of the info i will try that out
