      @billyh said in help: Malware and/or backdoors in Retropie??:

      It's probably me but to me it looks like @Clyde and @cyperghost are saying two different things?

      Not really, we more of complemented each other. @cyperghost's comment about open ports in the router's firewall are valid, though they should be closed in the router's initial factory setup. It doesn't hurt to check a router's setup for open ports, though, especially if multiple people have admin access to it, or the device was bought pre-owned.

      It also doesn't hurt to read the tech news about vulnerabilites in common routers, or an occational web search for one's own router model in that regard.

      Finally, the advice to set strong passwords also applies to one's router, of course, lest it may be manipulated like @cyperghost said. ]:}

      ... So, in the end, I guess, the main problem with the OP was that the Pi with unchanged credentials was connected to a compromised internet connection? The way I read it as first was that the unchanged credentials was exactly what made the connection an unsafe one but it seems now that there must've been a step or two before that that went awry.

      Supposedly yes, but without more details from @RikFlorence, we can only suspect that much.

      @r4l

      get rid of the overclock. any stability/freezing problems = get rid of the overclock

      i don't know why you're editing files. mupen64plus should get automatically configured when you configure your controller in ES. if you're using a proper n64 controller you may need to do some manual tweaks after that to get the c-buttons working nicely, but i would take one step at a time.

      Do you know how buttons are mapped in mupen64plus? They are automatically configured, often times the WRONG way. You have to turn off hotkeys in autoconf.cfg and make controllers fully manual in mupen64plus.cfg. Then you have to set the right button mappings in InputAutoCfg.ini. Basically I set up the controls in ES, then I fix them in InputAutoCfg.ini because if I don't, they are totally wrong.

      As for the overclock, I am using a Mackertop 5.25v 3a PSU. Even at 1.4GHz, the system is totally stable. Everything else works fine, except N64. I guess I could try going to 1.3GHz and seeing what happens, but I don't think that's the problem.

      @billyh Try it first. I have two PS3 controllers (original) and RPi3 and it works good for me. Played for like 2 hours straight with my brother without any issues.

      There is other issue with PS3 controller though - if I let it idle for a few minutes, the daemon (service) responsible for connecting with the controller hangs and I canßt get it back to working condition (I may be able through command line or SSH, haven't tried though). From what I read this issue gets resolved by using USB BT dongle...

      @samuelcole Please try in terminal
      sudo ifup wlan0
      and after this
      iwlist scan

      Can you post output if you type ifconfig?

      Can you post /boot/config.txt
      Did you disable some of the Bluetooth or WLAN components?

      @fabio78 said in Retropie 4.4 SD card images?:

      Seems like a new version is only justifiable when there are enough updates containing meaningful changes accumulated since the last release, or some game-changer features

      Or perhaps it's entirely dependent on when the devs have free time to work on it ;)

      We don't have a regular release schedule to preserve our sanity.

      i don't think your layout is quit right. you don't need a set of p1 start / insert coin buttons AND start and select - by default p1's 'start' is 'p1 start', and p1's 'select' is 'p1 insert coin', etc.

      if you still want to do it, you may have to configure the pX start and insert coin buttons after the initial setup manually, as i'm not sure you can bind two buttons to the same retropad button during the initial setup.

      also your button layout is... weird to me. start and select under the action buttons? bit late to change that now, though :)

      i would also have like:

      Y X R1 L1 B A R2 L2

      since you only have 6 action buttons, looks like you may have to use:

      Y X L1 B A R1

      however that might not pair well with default controls in arcade emulators, so you may need to reconfigure them after.

      I don't have a lot of time to write much, but, first of all, is that DC to DC converter the right link? I mean, 1200Ws is overkill, and the input range on that is -40 Vdc to -72 Vdc. The max that your 8 LiPo cells (18650) could produce if put in series, not parallel, is 29.6 V (just reverse polarity to get negative). -29.6 V is not within the range of -40 Vdc to -72 vdc. You'd want at least 11 of those batteries to work (in series). Though, over time, the voltage on the batteries would soon drop below that threshold.

      @glitchyboyhunter I didn't give you any 'codes', just pointed you to the file where Emulationstation might log any errors.
      You just need to get the file from the Pi - you use a PC if you have one connected. You need to open the \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation folder in Windows Explorer and you'll file the file I pointed out earlier in that folder. Upload the contents to pastebin.com and get the link here in the forum so we can better log at the log.

      EDIT: Make sure that Emulationstation is not configured with Parse Gamelists only set to On (https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/FAQ#why-does-shut-down-and-reboot-take-ages), otherwise any new game/rom added will not be shown. If you do, then turn it off, then restart Emulationstation.
