          What error do you get with ppsspp ? Just to make sure that the compression is not faulty, can you also try an .iso format game, un-compressed ?

            I just tried with the uncompressed (iso) version of the same game with ppsspp. I got the same error as previously when using ppsspp, I put the log from runcommand on pastebin:

              I'll take a look when I get to my Pi4. Strange error, the PPSSPP package hasn't really changed recently and I don't remember this kind of errors when testing 1.13.2 som time back.

                  seems like someone else had the same issue with ppsspp running on libreelec with rpi4
                  but no solution in the thread though

                    The error seems similar, but with version 1.14.

                    I can't reproduce your error using the RetroPie provided binary package for PPSSPP or a source build for lr-ppsspp. I tried your game and another one, though both are in .iso format. I didn't find a pre-built CSO compressor for armhf and I don't have another OS handy right now.

                    Not sure what to try next - did you do any OS changes that could impact the normal operations, like overclocking ?

                      No the only changes I did from default install was add emulators and switch roms and gameart to an external hdd

                        On my RetroPie system, this error was due tu a wrong kernel. And the wrong kernel was due to an upgrade to Debian 11 (which I should never have done) and downgrade to Debian 10.

                        apt install --reinstall raspberrypi-bootloader raspberrypi-kernel
                        and reboot solved the issue.
