@mitu said in RetroPie Setup no Longer Working After Failed Update.: The error message is quite clear - have you tried running the commands recommended ? I honestly didn't even notice that until after you pointed it out lmao. Thank you, it worked!

Unfortunately no success, I had already disabled the hybrid filter, and lowering the resolution even to 720x480 had no positive effect.

Any sensible addition to the documentation is welcome.

@VictimRLSH Thanks. Then at least it matches my experiences.

Are you using a 4k TV ? Try forcing an 1080p resolution - use raspi-config to set it.

@mitu thanks for reply. The original fresh install was years ago. From memory I followed the instructions from an ETAPRIME YouTube video

@mitu Thanks! Everything working good now! :D

@dankcushions said in Pi4 upgrade question: you should be able to just update as usual - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Updating-RetroPie as always, take a backup first. Thank you. I'll give it a go.

Thanks ! I try for the last 4 days :( Do you know if its possible to try to do the clone of the ffmpeg first ? its seems that's the module with the problem Br

@fullauto2009 An upgrade in place is not recommended, as it's not supported even by Raspbian. Note that attractmode is not compatible yet with the Pi4.

In the end everything is working fine ... thanks.

thank you again.

@JL-2600 UPDATE: I ending up trying to update to 4.6 again, but this time it updated only RetroPie and nothing else. Everything seems to be working just fine this time! When I originally tried the update a few days ago, it also updated the emulators, so perhaps it was one of those emulator updates that was causing the problem. Thanks!

you know what i did. i just did a fresh install - retropie 4.6 image. thanks for all the info and help, but a fresh install isnt that hard, it takes a couple of hours and then everything is working fine. also, the time and effort needed to upgrade the whole lot with all side complications possible - and having to resolve them -, that would perhaps take longer than just simply imaging the whole sd card to a disk image (.img) then flash it with retropie 4.6 and then mount the .img and return the whole lot to its folders.

@InfinityBeing I think your posts are unrelated to this topic. Please don't post here - you already have your own topic. Sorry for the noise on the topic @BuZz, @magicfly.

Sorry, i've just noticed entering in each package menu that a few ones can just be downloaded from source and compiled. Thanks.

Oh, yeah, forgot it's using $md_inst for user data.

I tried to update script, and after that, new version of the script even told me, that 4.3 is not supported. There in no "install from binary" at all for me. I can install from source, but it gets some old version too (some 1.6.9), and it is not working properly (glitches and freezes). This means you're running an RetroPie version based on Raspbian Jessie, which is no longer support by Raspbian and - alas - by RetroPie also. You should try and upgrade by imaging with the latest version of RetroPie (4.5.1) and you can backup and restore your settings and roms using the method mentioned int the Docs.

@davidgrohl As far as I know, the current version should be compatible with 1.7.6, it's not a breakning change. However, as @dankcushions said, if your installation is too old and it's based on a previous Raspbian release, your best option is to install a new version. As always, backup your installation before making major changes/upgrades.
