      @chrissphinx Please do not post a support request without first reading and following the advice in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

      Make sure you are using an official image, or have done a manual install yourself. We will not support 3rd party images.

      @chipsnblip Thanks.

      I suspect @thief122 would hopefully be able to provide more feedback as to whether this is something he'd use and how, given that the use case was brought up by him :)

      In terms of the overall approach, I think that it's always positive to set up a GitHub project for anything you'd do that's on the creative/technical side. It's good for learning and sharing above all. It'll also help you get feedback - and even help - from other people who are interested in the same problem, as well as thinking about how to bring it to the wider audience. So yeah, I would recommend that, should you be interested in investing time in this. Not sure at what stage you are, and where do you see this heading - as well as whether this solution is something that people would in general use. Definitely getting feedback from the end users would help!

      I suppose the key thing in all of these projects is that a) this is a problem that you are keen in exploring and solving, and b) that you're having fun along the process :)

      My comment on the layout was just an option, as I was thinking about the problem. Indeed, right now it's just rendered on top of the game, which may (or may not) be ideal for those who will use it. That's kind of why I thought of using the wide screen real estate, but you may be right, it might not work on a smaller screen, or if the game is stretched! Well spotted.

      I think there was a similar thread to this a while ago, though I can't find it. Might be interesting to see if this is indeed something more people would like to have and how, and maybe take it from there if you're keen to!

      Best of luck.

      @Allanbuzzy You can't speak of a installation here! The usb helper script only copies the roms from the sd card to the usb stick and keeps them on both! It won't delete anything

      If you plug in the usb and start up retropie it mounts the usb device to the /home/pi/RetroPie folder, so everything on the sd card is "hided"!

      Mhh, yes, but you are learning from this... You never learned enough ;-D

      At the moment I'm learning some C++ stuff by messing around with the Emulationstation source code :-D

      @dirthurts hit the start button in ES to bring up the settings and go into UI settings and see if you have Parse Gamelists Only turned on. If so, turn it off. That setting hides any game that is not scraped.

      Also if you are having scraping issues, you can go in and delete the gamelist.xml for snes and rescrape that system, that should fix up your errors.

      @workforit11 said in PSX not working:

      Also, when Retropie loads up playstation isn't an option as an emulator.

      That's because retropie did not see the .cue file. Yes, you must extract them in the psx folder.

      @BobbyDigital you can have both. If you need to install a bluetooth device all you have to do is unistall the ps3 driver. Then when you are finished reinstall the ps3 driver. When you want to add more bluetooth devices, remove the ps3 driver. Wash rinse repeat.

      @TMNTturtlguy I am using a Sandisk 32 gb ultra, bought in the store. And I was trying to write my image back to this same card after a full format (first I wipe the Linus partition with a quick format in my Sony camera, then I do a full (overwrite) format , with 'format size adjustment' to On in sdformatter). It's really odd but there are more reports about this issue.
      rpi-clone is a better alternative imo if you want to use the same size card (or smaller) for a back up

      @kevin-b Go to this article to scroll down to United Kingdom then match up that key with your us keyboard - should be near your enter key - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/QWERTY#United_Kingdom its the Tilda I think.

      Thanks dankcushions. I wanted to know because I would like to buy a raspberry pi 3 model B knowing I can run the Mortal Kombat Games and any 80s arcade game before that. Furthermore, emulating PS1 is better than paying 20 to 50 dollars a game here in the USA. For example, I have a actual PS1 in my apartment but on EBAY Crash Bandicoot 1 is going for 35 to 50 dollars (Black Label Complete).

      With prices like that, I might as well get a raspberry pi model 3 someday. Thanks for being patient with me.

      Have a good day :-)

      @epd For the most part, yes. You need to add your ROMs, and set up your controllers, but other than that, should be good to go!
