Raspberry pi 4

@Rascas thanks for the info.
yeah. Actually that sounds a lot like our plan. Legacy driver could be a stopover although I've had some issues with it so far but I've not really done any debugging. Just added some buster support to the build system etc. @psyke83 has done some work with support for fkms driver etc.
I'm going to be releasing RetroPie 4.5 before we do any RPI 4 image. Which may be the final Stretch based RetroPie series.

@Rascas It's not fake, look at his other videos, he shows it isn't fake:

Don't want to post more videos inline, but he enjoys everyone calling his testing fake. I can't say he doesn't have a Pi 3b+ nearby doing the work instead, but he has a Pi 4 so no need to say fake, it was the only one I found that did more than boot to desktop or try to play videos or use youtube, that is why I shared it, I hope it isn't fake, he played with PPSSPP as his newest video. If I am wrong I am sorry to waste your time. I guess we'll have to wait until someone can first hand respond with what it does for them.

Massive respect for the work that you do, can I ask what's made you decide to release 4.5 first?
Is it purely because of the time spent on 4.5? Is there any concern that you build 4.5 and some of the updates don't work on the pi 4? Or do you feel that the changes in 4.5 will mean the 4 image will be better as a result?
Looking forward to both, just curious as to how you make a decision like that. 👍

@Jste84 4.5 is ready. RPI4 support is only just started. RetroPie doesn't work on the RPI4 yet.

we need to wwait is very green board yet!

@Rascas fake o not fake , but retroarch works, i've also tried it works, attached screenshot testing raspbian with retroarch+yabause (saturn)...

Thank you, showing RetroArch working is 1/4 of the battle already won for RetroPie being at least at a stage that it will be able to be worked on by more devs than us all stuck waiting for the core OS devs to do their magic compiling new drivers, optimizations and updates, once the OS is ready for RetroArch in the mean time the Emulation Core coders can start on that side of things too.Good luck everyone and I hope you have a speedy delivery of your Pi's, I ordered day 1 and it's since been pushed back to Aug 4th for me :( I guess the 4gb versions weren't the main batch for release.
-
Yep, my mistake, I am sorry, it looks fine after all. I wasn't expecting that retroarch would run that good, without optimizations. Still not great but it will be better for sure.
-
I think the future will be good for the next revision this one just get very hot!
