      @fnkngrv I replied to your post in my other thread. I see you are up to date with Retropie. I'll definitely have a look at which drives my 2 disk games are attached to. It sounds like there is a problem only with the second disks.

      RetroPie v4.4.1 • RPi3 Model B • 5.1V 2.5A PSU • 32GB SanDisk Extreme microSD • 2TB Toshiba Canvio Basics Portable USB 3.0 hard drive • 4 x DragonRise USB Arcade joysticks • 2 x TurboTwist spinners • 1 x USB trackball • 1 x PS4 wireless • 1 x 8BitDo Zero

        Hello friends, for me it is working well to load disks using .m3u but only loads the .dim games and not .zip anyone have any solution to load compressed files?

          @marcelosofth I came across your question a few days ago and was about to respond that lr-px68k doesn't support .zip extensions but when I looked at the documentation on GitHub (https://github.com/msheehan79/px68k-libretro) It does indeed list .zip as supported. It seems that lr-px68k doesn't recognize .zip files internally but should be able to load them from emulation station (similar to px68k).

          I edited es_systems.cfg to tell emulation station to launch .zip files but couldn't get them to launch; neither from individual zips or .m3u files. I used 7zip to zip some .dim x68000 roms so that each disk was its own zip.

          Are you able to get ES to boot x68000 .zip files without the .m3u? If you can, tell me how the .zip files you are using are archived (what is exactly in your zip files?). Since I may be zipping them wrong.

          I can confirm that .HDM disk images work with the .m3u method outlined above

              Hello. I Have problem to run mulitidisc game on lr-px68k. When i run the game i have black screen and my gamepad non stop rumble. When i hit f12 i see two floppy disks in drives fdd0 and fdd1. I must go to retroarch/quickmenu/disccontrols/eject disk and currentdiskindex change to second disk and insert disk. When i do this steps game runs. i checked m3u files and try different roms and different bios in karopi folder, i tried reinstall emulator from source- no results. Not all games will not start, but most of them. I have Rpi4 with retropie 4.7.19, lr-px68k 1.9.7(0.15+b309941).
              Could someone help? Thank You.

                @krinasam Please don't bump old topics, you should open a separate topic for your question.
