    Hello;

    I’m want to do that to never forgot to exit with my gamepad to save.
    And I’ve set my raspberry into a NES case. That way I can use the power and reset buton of the case.
    If I shutdown the raspberry with my gamepad, the buton power will always stay in “power on” mode and the red LED always active even if the raspberry is shutdown.
    *****************

    Problem solved, a Simple command “sudo poweroff” works.
    Even if I have not exit the game.

    I’m a very newbie in linux command.
    But I’ve found that:
    /etc$ ps aux | grep *retro*

    pi 2662 0.0 0.1 1752 508 tty1 S+ 17:53 0:00 sh -c /home/pi/RetroPie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 1 “/home/pi/RetroPie/emulators/RetroArch/installdir/bin/retroarch -L /home/pi/RetroPie/emulatorcores/picodrive/picodrive_libretro.so –config /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg –appendconfig /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/megadrive/retroarch.cfg /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/megadrive/Streets\ of\ Rage.bin”
    pi 2663 0.0 0.3 4276 1300 tty1 S+ 17:53 0:00 /bin/bash /home/pi/RetroPie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 1 /home/pi/RetroPie/emulators/RetroArch/installdir/bin/retroarch -L /home/pi/RetroPie/emulatorcores/picodrive/picodrive_libretro.so –config /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg –appendconfig /home/pi/RetroPie/configs/megadrive/retroarch.cfg /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/megadrive/Streets\ of\ Rage.bin

    pi 16527 1.0 0.2 3540 808 ? S 19:53 0:00 grep retroarch.cfg

    /etc$ ps -u pi

    PID TTY TIME CMD

    12058 ? 00:00:00 bash
    16614 ? 00:00:00 ps

    With the Time start and Time elapsed columns I thinks the process is the PID 2690
    But witch one should I kill: The one from “ps -u pi” or the one from “pa aux | grep *retro*”

    How can I kill a process without know the number ?

    Bump.
    Nobody can help me on this issue ?

    Is is possible to set this into my configuration file form Gameboycolor.
    That way every game that I will play on gameboy color will be running into fast_forward

    I’ve found this parameter;
    input_hold_fast_forward_btn = “5” (it’s my right trigger)
    But I need to press “input_enable_hotkey_btn = 6” to use it. ( 6 is my select button)
    That is not very easy to press select and trigger to speedup the game and press the cross button to move :D
    Other thing, I can’t handle the speed up.

    Still need help.

    Hello;

    How do I close the emulator ?

    I use a multiple key to force exit game then I’m back to the main screen:
    http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/RKahG0w81DQ/maxresdefault.jpg
    Is that enough ?
    Because as I said, it’s what I do; ( “I’ve tried to restart a new game, just reset retroarch; I found my profile into Zelda.” )
    But if I unplug the power cable (after the reset) then power on I lost everything.

    Can you be more specific ?
    The problem came from unplug the power cable ?
    Should I shutdown rertropie with the linux command: shutdown
    How can I proceed knowing that I don’t have keyboard, only 2 gamepad.

    ****

    I want to buy http://mausberry-circuits.myshopify.com/products/shutdown-circuit-use-your-own-switch to use the power button from NES, but I think 13.50$ + $6 (Shipping outside US) is a little bit expansive just for using a power button.
    I that the only way to solve my problem ?

    Hum ok,
    I will try that.
    ***
    OK, that’s it why. I play on Europeen rom (E) [!]
    If I play: Super Mario Bros. (JU) [!].nes or Super Mario Kart (U) [!].smc the speed is correct.

    How can I change that ?
    For some game, that is not a problem (95%) but for other as Pokemon or Zelda where there is a lot of text that is needed to be understand, I think it will be better in French.

    Hello;

    I find a way;
    video_aspect_ratio = 1.175

    I think works on “video_fullscreen_x” and “video_fullscreen_y” to have a better display resolution
    video_fullscreen_x = 720
    video_fullscreen_y = 336

    I’ve a 127cm wide TV HD 1080p
    Do you think I can do better with this param ?
