      Thanks, @mitu. I'll have a look when I'm at home.

        @mitu Hi. I wound up compiling lr-fuse from source via Retropie Setup and was happy to see that it worked. (Installing from Retropie Setup often doesn't work for me now because I'm still on Jessie).

        However, despite the successful compiling, Mr Do! still doesn't work. Not sure what is going on there.

          Failed to open /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/zxspectrum/Mr. Do!.sna: No such file or directory
          If your rom is really there, my guess is that it doesn't like its name, try renaming it to something simpler like mrdo.sna

            @spud11 i still don't understand why it tries to load a .sna file - the file I tested was .tap file. Try @barbudreadmon's suggestion and rename the Rom.

              @mitu and @barbudreadmon That does work, thank you. It now loads the game. I changed the name to mrdo.tap and it works. Changing the extension to .sna did not work.

              I can't get any inputs to work at present, but I suspect that will be because I'm on Retroarch 1.7.5 rather than a more recent one, so will need to update Retroarch if I can.
