rpi to CRT problem - SOLVED
-
Hi, so i've connected my pie running retropie using RCA cables.
Using "enable_tvout=1" gives me a image (but my mp4 splashscreen is lagging) and very choppy sound (I have background music in the menu) and It just gives me a black screen when I enter a game.If I go into settings and change resolution to a 4:3 ratio either 60hz or 50hz (I do have a PAL Tv) it gives me great sound but no image =/
Does anyone have any idea how to fix it?
EDIT:
An update, so after adding this line to the config file:
audio_pwm_mode=0
The audio works, only if I select the resolution to "monitor or device" instead of a fixed resolution and 50 or 60hz.Every console works except for NES. Starting a SNES, GB, GBC, GBA, Arcade, Playstation and Megadrive it all works great. But Starting a NES game the CRT just goes black and It looks like it dosen't receive a signal
EDIT x2:
I finally figured it out! I had long ago been trying different modes for lr-quicknes as my default NES emulator. Using that emulator setting the video mode to CEA-16. I enabled the runcommand and pressed A when launching a NES game so I could enter the menu. Removed the video mode from the quicknes emulator and now it works. Every single NES game works perfectly.Just a tiny bit of a overscan issue now, and the theme (mini-nes theme) is for 16x9 so it dosent fit really.
And I have this text popping up when launching a game:
ALSA lib control.c:1373 something VolumeControl::init() failed to attach to default card!Anyone know what that is about?
EDIT x3:
I changed the line in config.txt from
audio_pwm_mode=0
to
audio_pwm_mode=1In settings I have this
Audio card set to Default
and
Audio device set to PCM.Seems to work great, no more sound warnings.
