@Darksavior Nevermind, I found it. That worked perfectly. I'm getting the quarter of a screen problem too, but that can be fixed. Gotta admit, I think I probably enjoy setting up the RetroPie more than playing the games.

compiling without GUI , and in single thread, suceeded.

@SpudsMcToole said in Super-basic Retropie Setup Script question: @WarC0zes said in Super-basic Retropie Setup Script question: This tutorial worked for me : https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/16145/retropie-upgrading-raspbian-jessie-to-stretch On the Big List Of Things I Don't Want To Do, typing stuff like this: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get -y autoremove --purge && sudo apt-get -y autoclean ...is really, really high up. (I mean, I don't even know WHERE I'm supposed to type that. I manage my Pi through the WinSCP interface and no command typing is ever required.) You have to use PuTTY to type the commands. Launch PuTTY, enter the raspberry ip and connect. User: pi Password: raspberry From there you connect to the raspberry in ssh and can type the commands. It takes a little time to update jessie at strech.

@Hanky42 said in Retropie and Libreelec: Wouldn't KODI want media added to it's library? yes? you add files to the library over network without moving the actual files or you can just play them directly from the source. personally i use mysql (alltho a bit slow) to avoid having to recreate the library and remember which movies i watched on all devices using kodi in my home. if you want something easier, you can look up plex media center, but i belive a "dedicated" server is required for that, i am unsure if it will run both a player and a server on one raspberry.

@shaunus70 at a guess perhaps this? https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/FAQ#why-emulationstation-doesnt-start-automatically-after-an-update-

Turns out it was the unit itself, I got a replacement and it worked right away. Z

@mitu Thank you, works!

(Deleted post)

@mitu I will definitely look into this. Thanks!

@mitu Thanks Bro, fixed!

@Clyde Well ifconfig works just fine in Debian Stretch / Retropie 4.4 I just tested it in the linux terminal. It also seems that ip addr works as well. So doesnt matter which one will be used. Either one will do just fine. :-)

Finally got around to test it and I can confirm it works! Thanks

@Efriim yes that is where it goes. You change the line to: emulationstation --no-splash #auto

@mitu thanks!

no problems at all i would do the same for mame2003 if you have updated the last few days mame2003/cfg dir will need cleared as well.

Super Street fighter II X for matching service also works perfectly

Tried another cable anyways, no luck. This is a first for me.

My first instinct was to ask you to check if you're connected to the internet, but you said you updated so I figured out you don't have this problem. Glad you figured it out.

I can strongly recommend the Crush Pinball series, especially Alien Crush and Devil's Crush (Devil Crash in Japan) for the PC Engine / Turbografx-16. They're often mentioned as maybe the best pinball console games ever made. Pinball Dreams and Pinball Fantasies are also worth a look. The Amiga versions may be the best because of the music, but the console versions are also quite good as far as I tested them. I didn't notice any problems running any of them on my non-overclocked Pi 3b non-plus except for the Amiga versions, because I my Pi is only used for arcade and console emulation.

@mitu said in Retropie_Setup errors after failed update: git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup.git Great tip: it worked ! Currently updating all installed cores. Thank you so much !
