      OK, so I'm giving Amiberry a shot, instead of uae4arm. So far I'm a bit confused: I'm loading a game - this time it's "Sensible World of Soccer" - choosing Amiberry1200 from the presets, and the game is terribly slow, with the keyboard and the gamepad not responding. I quit and try the amiberry500 - the result is exactly the same. I find the F12 menu not intuitive and can't really figure out what to switch and how (I had never owned an Amiga, so).

      What am I doing wrong?

      I'm on Pi Zero.

        I don't think you are doing anything wrong in particular, but I don't think a pi zero is powerful enough for Amiga emulation.

          @tuki_cat It is, (mostly) everything worked fine on uae4arm.

            @gordonfreemanjr oh OK. I tried UAE4ARM on my pi zero around a year ago and found it stuttered. I would expect emulating an A1200 on pi zero would have similar issues.

              @tuki_cat The only problem was that 33% of times it failed to boot a game. I can’t understand why it’s impossible now to run any game at decent speed. Everything is 2x too slow.
