We have gizmo to thank for the plugin :)

This video should answer your questions.

atarist is hatari which is a non-retroarch emulator so its likely due to the emulator/ game as multiple key presses work fine for me in other retroarch based emulators.

[herbfargus]

for anybody else who is interested I scripted the kodi 15 build to automatically include cec support as well as its own entry in emulationstation though the build listed above may be more up to date. You can just replace the following in /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/ports/kodi.sh:

It’s been added to the source so you can now install it from the experimental menu of the setup script.

[herbfargus]

Well the commodore 64 was a computer :P nothing wrong with using a keyboard. Try updating your setup script and pairing your controller with the ps3 option- it was just updated.

[herbfargus]

Personal preference really. I prefer to only transfer over what I play, if you’re dealing with mame sets you can build merged or parents only sets which remove a lot of the duplicates, but anytime you’re dealing with full sets its just going to be a headache to sort. I’ll typically check out YouTube videos on gameplay before I actually copy things over to try out.

[herbfargus]

You could do that or you could just change contrib to unstable in the install script. Or you could wait until the upstream repo is updated to kodi 15

[herbfargus]

Should be fixed now

[herbfargus]

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/MAME#lr-mame2010-experimental

[herbfargus]

I presume you are referring to mame games?

Press left and then right (likely on the dpad rather than the analogue sticks) and it works the same.

[herbfargus]

Reconfigure it again and press the button you configured as “A” to select OK:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation

[herbfargus]

Have you updated your setup script and tried the latest ps3 Bluetooth pairing script from the setup script?

[herbfargus]

The .dat files are not specific to the version of retropie rather they are specific to the emulator that is used for mame.

Read the documentation.

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Managing-ROMs

[herbfargus]

Text is the only supported format for gamelists.

The only way you’d be able to get the marquee above the game image is to go into gimp and merge the boxart with the marquee into one image and upload the images manually.

For what you’re suggesting you’re probably better off with something like hyperspin.

[herbfargus]

You can play some of those games with lr-gpsp, you just have to load them from the rgui rather than emulationstation- not sure why they only work from the rgui but they do.

[herbfargus]

Brilliant mate. Now all I have to do is super impose the sega jingle

[herbfargus]

Looks a lot more expensive, lacks the community support like the raspberry pi has, and has only 16GB embedded memory.

May run games faster provided they work on the processor.

Interesting product for sure but looks just like another raspberry pi clone to me.

[herbfargus]

You can always try sselphs scraper from the experimental menu in the setup script.

[herbfargus]

You really should open a new topic for new issues.

But the problem is you need a keyboard to set up joystick configs.

[herbfargus]

Possible you have a corrupt sd card, possible your uncompression software isn’t very good (I use 7zip) , possible network issues.

Possible you’re flashing the sd incorrectly. Could be a myriad of things. Could you give more info on each step and what software you used?

Did you follow the documentation?

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation

[herbfargus]

You can always try it manually:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-Up-Wifi

You can check the content of

/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

It should have your ssid and password there if it worked correctly.

[herbfargus]

Because retropie is built on Linux with Linux emulators.

I made a video on how to get emulationstation running on windows though.

[herbfargus]

May have to look at overscan settings:

See also:

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/runcommand

[herbfargus]

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/First-Installation

It’s select+start

Read the documentation.

[herbfargus]

Super Mario war has internal sound settings that can be changed that may be higher than the default sound levels for the other systems

[herbfargus]

hmm. I guess it only does the direct framebuffer. sorry for the mislead. (still can be a useful feature for some other things though)

This might also be something to look at (havent tried it myself)

https://github.com/info-beamer/tools/tree/master/screenshot

[herbfargus]

Something like this:

sudo fbgrab -c 1 screenshot.png

You can change the number to try out different framebuffers. Haven’t tested with emulationstation so not sure if that works

[herbfargus]

You could also look into fbgrab

[herbfargus]

Yep: recode the source code and recompile

[herbfargus]

https://github.com/RetroPie/EmulationStation/pulls

If you’re comfortable compiling it yourself. It’s not currently supported.

[herbfargus]

Floob does make great videos. The wiki is also a great resource (many of the pages have links to floobs videos): https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki

also btw floob doesnt remote in, he has an hdmi capture card which records whats on his television.

Yes 7z is the problem. Read the documentation.
