Some my emulators are slow / glitchy audio

@lektroid please provide a verbose log for an emulator in question: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Runcommand/#launch-with-verbose-logging

Hi, thanks for offering your help on this matter, it is very much appreciated.

After much frustration with the instructions in the link which may as well have been written in Greek, I have managed to find my way into verbose logging by choosing a game, pressing 'A' on the controller at launch, then selecting option 'L - Launch With Verbose Logging". However, the runcommand.log file does not appear to exist anywhere. When I go into the system via the network, it only shows up 4 folders ( bios, configs, roms, splashscreens). If I plug the card into my computer (MacOS), it shows a list of files, and only one folder (overlays). There is certainly no path named "/dev/shm/runcommand.log" as suggested in the docs. How do I find that?

Please explain this in plain English, as I am totally new to this.

@lektroid
if you look at the SD card via mac/windows you will likely only see the /boot/ partition, which is not relevant here.

via samba ("network") you only see the samba shares, which do not include this path.

you can locate the /dev/shm/runcommand.log via SFTP: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/#sftp

@dankcushions Thanks for your reply, but this is not working. I have followed the instructions to the word, inserted all the information into Cyberduck exactly, there is nowhere to add an IP address in Cyberduck, so obviously I could not enter that, and it refuses connect.

Is there another easier way to get this file?

Zering

@lektroid I would recommend using WinSCP.

LektroiD

@zering There does not appear to be a mac version of this for download, I tried 'other downloads' and no mac version there either. Cyberduck was recommended in the documentation, which is why I downloaded that.

Make sure you enabled SSH on your PI before attempting to connect to it via SFTP/SSH.

Another option would be to copy the file to the roms folder, then copy it via file shares, from the Finder. After running the emulator, exit EmulationStation and run

cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log $HOME/RetroPie/roms/

You can find the file at \\retropie\roms, along with the rest of the rom/games folders.

LektroiD

@mitu Yes, SSH was enabled as per instructions in the docs, which I have followed to the word...

I tried to enter the command by pressing F4 on the RP400 keyboard, then typing "cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log $HOME/RetroPie/roms/" and it says no such file or directory. So I tried "cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log", but it says missing destination file operand after 'cp /dev/shm/runcommand.log $HOME/RetroPie/roms/' Try 'cp --help' for more information

Are you running the cp command after running the game ? The log file is not persisted between reboots, so if you haven't run the game, there won't be any file.

@mitu I only get one chance to open that menu... I start a game, then press A on the controller, then 'L - Launch With Verbose Logging'.

there sure is - i use it myself:

that's fine, but if you reboot AFTER launching the game but BEFORE attempting to access the file, it will go away. try launching the game again and then try and get the file immediately and paste us the output of the failed commands please.

Finally I have the file. This is outputted from the Vectrex emulator. I can not get one from the C64 emulator, as there is no way to shut the app down after using it, so the unit needs to be unplugged to come out of the app, meaning the log file will disappear...

Your resolution is 4k@30hz. It's a bit too much too handle for emulation - I suggest you lower your resolution to 1080p@60hz.

The Pi4 doesn't output 4k@60hz by default, if you want to still keep the 4k resolution, then enable 4k@60hz from raspi-config or add to /boot/config.txt:

hdmi_enable_4kp60=1

@lektroid

please format your logs correctly - see https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first ('code blocks' section). i have edited your post this time :)

Finally I have the file. This is outputted from the Vectrex emulator. I can not get one from the C64 emulator, as there is no way to shut the app down after using it, so the unit needs to be unplugged to come out of the app, meaning the log file will disappear...

are you using escape key to exit? see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Commodore-64-VIC-20-PET/

as for your log, the problem is as i expected:

[INFO] [Video]: Timings deviate too much. Will not adjust. (Display = 30.00 Hz, Game = 50.00 Hz)
[INFO] [Video]: Game FPS > Monitor FPS. Cannot rely on VSync.
[INFO] [Video]: Video @ 3840x2160

you're using a 4k30 mode. select a 1080p60 resolution mode via raspi-config (available on the retropie settings section in emulationstation)

Hi, I cannot change the resolution, when I go into Raspi-Config I select "2 Display Options", then "D1 Resolution", and it just jumps back to the first Raspi-Config screen, and thus loops around those two menus. I tried entering the code you suggested, but the audio is still slow and glitchy.

dankcushions

@lektroid you can manually set the mode in /boot/config.txt

for example, for 1080p on mine I use

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=82

you could try that or

hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16

these are the typical ones.

mitu

As an alternative to raspi-config, you can add to your /boot/config.txt file:

hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16

and remove the hdmi_enable_4kp60 line.

@lektroid How are you editing the file ? If you're using an editor from the PI, make sure you're using sudo when you start the editor, the file is not editable by the pi user, since it's a system file.

@mitu I'm plugging the SD into the mac, then using Textedit to edit the file (It's the only way I know), not sure how to use sudo?
