      PSX Games were working previously. Since migrating all my games to a larger SD Card and adding a few more Playstation games, now none of them work. They just return to the RetroPie/EmulationStation home page. Every game now. I'll attached my log file as I used verbose logging.

      This is on a Raspberry Pi 400. I've tried removing the emulator (lr-pcsx-rearmed) and installing from binaries. This didn't work so I tried installing from source but still the games are refusing to load. Anyone got any ideas?

      Thanks for looking. :)

        Try updating RetroPie-Setup and then RetroArch also.

          Hi Mitu

          Thanks for the tips. I updated RetroPie but wasn't able to update RetroArch through EmulationStation. Looks like this isn't an option.

          Anyway I managed to get it working. I had renamed one of my games (Castlevania) to remove the [PSX] from the start of the file name and this seemingly broke all the games. Once I renamed it back again they all started working. Very strange. Anyway thanks for your help.

            You need to start the RetroPie-Setup script from the RetroPie menu and update it, then update retroarch like you did before.

            It's not strange, the .cue files contain the filename of the .bin cd image, if you renamed the .bin file(s) without updating the contents of the .cue file, then the emulator will not be able to find the correct cd image file(s).
