@mitu Thanks for the reply
I edited the
emulators.cfg
to the following
And now when I launch SteamLink from the Ports menu it loads and goes back to Retropie
Here the log file
Thank you

@skip Are you running the latest version or you're still running the downgraded version (
1.1.62.158
) ? -
@mitu You're right, sorry!
Thanks for the reminder! I had not that much sleep tonight and forgot about that.
I am running
1.1.92.230
now and this is the logParameters: Executing: /opt/retropie/ports/steamlink/steamlink_xinit.sh xset: unable to open display "" matchbox: can't open display! check your DISPLAY variable.

Same error, I see. I'll have to give it a test on Buster, I think the changes for Bullseye support in Steamlink may have broke something on Buster.
-
@mitu I'll try to downgrade to the last version (1.1.86.210) before bullseye's experimental support and report back to you

I can't reproduce the issue.
I startedsteamlink
and it updated itself to version1.1.92.230
automatically, then it started the remote play once I pressed on the Start Playing button. With the defaultemulators.cfg
,steamlink
is started from a X.org (desktop) session, but the latest versions (since 'bullseye' X-less playback was added) also work without a desktop session.FWIW, I'm using a similar setup, with a Pi4 4Gb model. In the log file, the same error appears (Bad thread local), but only when I exit
steamlink
.One thing to check - the new version may have changed the controller button mappings, so when you press the Start Playing you may actually instruct
steamlink
to exit. Can you try pressing the 'other' button when you're on Start Playing (i.e. press A of you were pressing B or vice-versa) ?NOTE: before testing, make sure you upgrade to the latest version and add back the
XINIT:
stanza inemulators.cfg
. You may also startsteamlink
from the command line if you want, after exiting EmulationStation. -
@mitu Thank you for taking the time, I will verify and get back to you
-
@mitu OMG, I am so sorry for wasting your time. Yes, it was the button setup and I was exiting the application all the time. I think we can mark this as solved and as Layer 8 issue.
Thank you again for your patience and time.
