[quote=121094]Have you tried to increase the latency in the audio settings? It could maybe fix the problem.

Hi, where do I do that?

EDIT: I found it in RetroArch menus.. But it didn’t fix the problem.. I have this issue slightly on SNES also, I noticed now.. What can it be? Something in config.txt?

[keem85]

Cool I’m tempted to try it. It sounds convenient.. Hey, I had a thought about the triple boot.. If I install the triple-boot, and then copy my .kodi and PI folders over, wouldn’t that “overwrite” the shortcut to Raspbian desktop in emulationstation and Kodi? Making your shortcuts disappear or something?

[keem85]

Not trying to be an ass, but will there be a triple boot image for RP3 also? :) I suddenly got the urge tu use the RP as a computer as well! When/if that happens, can I just copy the .Kodi folder and the PI folder to transfer all my roms, settings, bios etc? Thanks!

All that being said though – if you already have a Pi2 setup then you just need to update your distro and it will add Pi3 support, so you may not need to worry about starting all over again. Worth a try anyway!

Cool.. I will try that.. But what do I do with my RP2 overclock setting “config.txt”? It’s set up with RP2 overclocking settings.. I want it to be properly configured for RP3 when I boot it up :).

Your duaboot image is the best I’ve ever tried by the way. I would never go back to running Kodi on Raspbian via Retropie. The performance difference is like night and day!

[quote=119544]Hi.

I will be ordering my Pi3 in the next couple of days so will create a vanilla image using RetroPie 3.6 and OpenELEC 15.2 / 16. I’ll post a link soon as it’s ready.

As for “what is the advantage of a dual boot setup vs standard single partition setup” – well when I first made my dual boot setup it was the only way to guarantee a stable KODI experience by using OpenELEC rather than the Raspbian installer version of KODI (which had bugs at that time). You cannot install OpenELEC alongside RetroPie (as far as I know), so it has to be in its own partition. It makes for a rock solid KODI experience with a dedicated RetroPie partition with only it’s own filesystem layout and I can have a nice menu to be able to switch between the two OS’s seamlessly. It may not be for everyone, but for me it’s perfect. Its also the only way you can use Plex and RetroPie together (as far as I know). Not that I use Plex, but a lot of folk were looking for a solution to that.

Hope that answers your question! I guess If you’re having no issues with the Rasbian installer version of KODI then there’s no need for a dual boot build. I prefer OpenELEC so this is my only option. It was also a good Linux learning tool for me along the way!

All the best

Thanks for your reply! Do you know a good way for me to backup my Retropie and OpenELEC from RP2 and over to RP3 once it’s done?.. Which folder in Retropie and OpenELEC can I backup from my current setup?

And where will you post your link? :) Thanks!! (Hoping it will be Jarvis. It supports AirPlay on iOS 9 it seems)

Hi!

Will there be a dual boot image for Retropie+OpenELEC with the new Raspberry Pi 3? I want to swap out my old RP2 with a new RP3.

[keem85]

Ok I see. Do you have any advice on how I can backup my whole Pie settings and roms? Is it just to copy the /home/pi folder and paste it on to RP3 once I have installed Retropie on RP3?

[keem85]

Nice, once again you are very helpful! I think I need to do a backup first.. But I’m curious; Why does it work? I’m curious to the technical part of %ROM% etc.. The whole line there.. What’s it for?

Edit: I cannot find the emulator to use. I’m using Moonlight-embedded, and that does not have that .cfg file

[keem85]

Ahhh I understood what you meant now. I did the binary reinstall and it worked! Thanks you saved my SD card!!

[keem85]

I tried the binary install (recommended) option, but it did not help.. Any other tips?

[keem85]

Sorry if it sounds stupid, but how do I do that? is it the first option in retropie menu?

[keem85]

Does anyone have any idea what could have happened? Is there any way to reset SNES settings to it’s default?

[keem85]

By the way now I also get “Press a button to configure” when opening other emulators, like PSX.. “errors are logged to /tmp/runncommand.log” it says also..

I wonder how I managed to mess this stuff up :/

EDIT: Never mind the last post here, I think this is a new message on the new RetroPie setup script that I just downloaded, am I right?
The SNES problem still remains though..

[keem85]

Thanks! hahaha! And all along for almost half a year, I’ve connected my keyboard to access that menu! LOL!

[keem85]

Hi

Thanks for the info, I will try it myself when I get home..
But what about changing “sort by” option? It doesn’t seem to remember what I choose..
I’m guessing that it’s a perission problem, and I wonder how to fix it?
