      Hi all,

      Now I have all the main systems I want setup and running great It's time to look at some more obscure ones and the first is a system that was a big part of my wifes introduction to gaming. After we sat down googling Spectravideo today she pointed at the SV318 as the system she grew up with and after a while of searching I managed to find a complete set of games for it. The only problem I see the spectravideo is emulated on MSX emulators and none of the ones on the pi seem to support .cas (cassete) files which all of these are. Has anybody else gotten this particular system running or will I have to find a PC emulator for her?

      It would be nice to give her something to play on the Pi since it is currently full of my childhood :P

      I have a Pi3 B with retropie 4.2.7 (updated today)

        In theory should be possible with bluemsx (not sure how well implemented the libretro version is) but from what I was reading running .cas looked a bit involved, there was a bit of a guide I saw on the bluemsx forms but I don't think I can link to it as it looked like it had ROM or bios links.
