@mitu Your first suggestion worked! Thank you so much!

Then mark this topic as resolved and post a follow-up either here or in a separate topic if you encounter an issue with FBNeo.

@abj

Tried 2 different HDMI cables and same cable works perfectly with the main 4.8 version I’ve got on a 2nd SD card. These issues seem to be with the bullseye beta images but don’t think it’s a RetroPie problem as Batocera had the exact same issues on their newest versions for the Pi3B.

@mitu Hotkey + X worked, changed Sound to HDMI, perfect. Thank you both!

@Maverick42 and @windg thanks for trying to help me. Unfortunately The 99-retropie.conf file didn't fix my sound issue. Ìll definitely try with a fresh install from the official ISO image.

You should change the Audio Device in EmulationStation's settings to one of the entries listed by aplay. If you the option doesn't show up in the menu, then edit es_settings directly and fill in the AudioDevice there.

front:CARD=Audio, DEV=0
USB Audio, USB Audio
Front Speakers

surround21:CARD=Audio, DEV=0
USB Audio, USB Audio
2.1 Surround output to Front and Subwoofer speakers

surround40:CARD=Audio, DEV=0
USB Audio, USB Audio
4.0 Surround output to Front and Rear speakers

@mitu Thanks! By total chance I just found the same thing. I don't know why that configuration menu is not mentioned in the retropie docs. Hopefully this post will help someone else in the future

@illando unfortunately I don't know
I really don't see the card speed being much of an issue because the raspberry pi doesn't have a very fast read write speed to start with as far as I know

But if you have one laying around or easily accessible guess it wouldn't hurt to try that

@10vorne By switching from FastSid to ReSid 6581, the high-frequency beeping in vice x64 is gone.

So I was having the same issue with my gpi case 2, what I did was I used the update feature and after a update and reboot it works perfectly.

@rasp_renegade thanks!

Solved had to set audio to HDMi in Raspi-config as well

@jiryn we only get email notifications for your first version of the first version of your post, FYI.

When I tell Retroarch to reset defaults, I lose all controller access.

yeah don’t do this. retroarch defaults are not retropie defaults and will not work.

@brandflake11 said in Is There a Way to Emulate Louder?:

@alphabetapie As of the current retroarch version, I don't think you can set the audio output gain per game (correct me if I'm wrong!). It's a system setting. I think the first step would be to find out if you can load different system settings depending on what game you launch.

If that doesn't work, you could do it with this step (although I don't know how retropie manages retroarch.cfg since they have their own scripts that modify settings):
You could implement a script using sed to change the
audio_volume in ~/.config/retroarch/retroarch.cfg before launching the game from retroarch. Maybe there would be a way to do this in the menu before retroarch is launched with retropie. Changing the audio_volume in retroarch.cfg would be trivial with sed, it would just be a matter of figuring out how to change it depending on what game you would want.

Thanks for all the helpful info and trying to assist. I guess the best I can do at the moment is to just adjust the audio volume in the arcade game's dipswitches for now and see if it persists. It is what the arcade owners would have had to do back in the day using that method.

@stlcyclone It's already fixed.

@jutleys Not sure if i broke any rules sorry if i did as i get a message saying reported as spam.

@adambegood No worries at all, I'm glad it's finally working for you. Now you can properly enjoy the best game on the X68000!

Indeed, glad to have it in the gaming stable! Hope your Pi repairs are going well today.

@mitu ok. thanks.
i guess i will have to start from the scratch.
