PS1 not seeing any controllers
-
I just removed the broken cfg, re-installed the emulator and manually added the first 13 lines (not running the video-manager tool to do it)
I've launched and exited 8 different psx titles so far, and have not had any issues. The config has not been changed so far.
Here is your output request
/opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg: C source, ASCII text
-
Couldn't you just share your config file for us to download and replace?
-
@epicrean Sure but I don't know if you are using the tool I am using or not. If not, what you should do is delete your existing config, and just re-install the emulator and it will generate a working default one for you (like buzz said).
Here is my current working config.
If you want the default, remove the first 13 lines.

@bengus I'm going to change the title of the thread, I think the video manger may be the key
-
Not blaming Floor fyi, it just seems to be the common denominator. I of course will do more testing to recreate the initial issue based on all the input in this thread. Thank you everyone who responded.
-
@epicrean I am not either :-) Floob's video manager tool is a godsend to me, and I have been using it for so long and its been so rock solid, I never assumed it had anything to do with it. But because of BuZz and Floobs help, I am pretty sure I have mine working as it always did before, and for that I am grateful.
-
I suspect if anything it is a bug in the way retroarch is parsing the config. I have to do a server migration now, but I will look at it at my next moment now I have the configs.
-
bengus - did you do that
filecommand after you manually edited it ? if so please do it after the video manager has edited it after you installed the default. I have a suspicion. (CRLF related). -
I concur I used Floob's video manager too and I have the same problem! If you want the content of my files please let me know!
-
that file output was after my most recent working attempt, which is this.
The first 13 lines I added manually (copy/paste) without having the video-manager tool add them for me. The only difference here is that rewind_enable = false is now above #include rather than below it. It is working for me now as it used to, but I for the life of me couldn't guess as to what caused it to behave the way it did. I am sure you will figure out what the root cause is/was. Thanks again for all of your time and help, as always.

I need to know the output of the
file /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfgcommand after you have used floobs video tool please. it could be the rewind_enable above the include, but it could be line endings. -
/opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg: ASCII text
-
@sebacote - please can you paste the contents of that file also.
-
@BuZz sure, here it is :

Sorry, but I need the output of
file /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfgbefore retroarch has saved its config there - after the video tool has been used - I need this- remove
configs/psx/retroarch.cfgfile completely - reinstall psx emulator
- use the video tool
- then the output of
file /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg(and contents to confirm)
it is at that point retroarch gets confused. I'm trying to see what the file endings are as I want to rule out there being CRLF endings which could cause problems. I can't tell from the pastebin posts.
- remove
-
@BuZz oh my bad! I'm doing too many things at the same time! I'll do this right now!
-
@BuZz here is the fresh "videotooled" retroarch.cfg file : http://pastebin.com/x3bwRt7N
Quick edit : I used v1.0 of the video tool, freshly downloaded
-
@sebacote you forgot the output of
file /opt/retropie/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg? -
Just for the sake of clarity, please note the video manager tool never touches the global retroarch.cfg, but it does overwrite the system specific ones.
Depending on the options chosen it can also overwrite the retroarch core options file and the videomodes.cfg file. -
