Sorry Retro Arch is the only one I use.

Can you scrape just one folder? and how do I do that? For example I have at the root of my nes roms folder, all NES games released in all languages. Then in another folder inside of the NES roms folder, I have just US games. I want to just scrape the US NES games how do I do this. I was also wondering how to I manually add artwork and info without running a scraping script? I noticed last time I tried to run the script all roms came back with the error.. Could not re-size image.

Does anyone know if this has been fixed with the updated binaries? Also is there release notes for new releases of fixes & updated features?

Thanks!

Let me know how it goes. If you still have the issue let me know.
I have no lag or any issues.

I will try to pull my exact config and make sure I did not change anything.

In case anyone needs it here is the config file for a USB NES controller with exit emulator and save load state.

input_player1_joypad_index = 0
input_player1_b_btn = 2
input_player1_a_btn = 1
input_player1_start_btn = 9
input_player1_select_btn = 8
input_player1_l_y_plus = -1
input_player1_up_axis = -1
input_player1_l_y_minus = +1
input_player1_down_axis = +1
input_player1_l_x_minus = -0
input_player1_left_axis = -0
input_player1_l_x_plus = +0
input_player1_right_axis = +0

input_enable_hotkey_btn = “9″
input_exit_emulator_btn = “8″

input_enable_hotkey_btn = 9
input_save_state_btn = 1

input_enable_hotkey_btn = 9
input_load_state_btn = 2

900MHz ARM, 333MHz core, 450MHz SDRAM, 2 overvolt

I am using a class 10 San Disk. Anything over this setting and I often get SD corruption. Backup that image.

NES, and XBOX 360.

hey thanks I will take a look at it and see.

This is my config mappings:

input_player1_joypad_index = 0
input_player1_b_btn = 2
input_player1_a_btn = 1
input_player1_start_btn = 9
input_player1_select_btn = 8
input_player1_l_y_plus = -1
input_player1_up_axis = -1
input_player1_l_y_minus = +1
input_player1_down_axis = +1
input_player1_l_x_minus = -0
input_player1_left_axis = -0
input_player1_l_x_plus = +0
input_player1_right_axis = +0

input_enable_hotkey_btn = “9”
input_exit_emulator_btn = “8”

___________________________________

Save = Select + A
input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8
input_save_state_btn = 1

Load = Select + B
input_enable_hotkey_btn = 8
input_load_state_btn = 2

Test and worked. Thanks for the idea guys..

Video splash screen how to:

[moorens]

You can just do a video for the splash screen. Pretty simple. I added the script here:

Would you share that exact part of your config with me?
I would like to get this setup on the NES emulator, with my NES controller!

Thanks!

I do have a work around to get music if you have an IOS device using Airplay. This will allow you to play iTunes from iphone in game.

In game custom music with AirPlay

Shairport\Airplay install
sudo apt-get install git libao-dev libssl-dev libcrypt-openssl-rsa-perl libio-socket-inet6-perl libwww-perl avahi-utils libmodule-build-perl
Let this process run for a little while. When it’s complete, we need to install an update so Shairport will work with iOS 6 (you can skip this step if you’re not on or plan to upgrade iOS 6)
iOS module
git clone https://github.com/njh/perl-net-sdp.git perl-net-sdp
cd perl-net-sdp
perl Build.PL
sudo ./Build
sudo ./Build test
sudo ./Build install
cd ..
Shairport install. from your home directory:
git clone https://github.com/hendrikw82/shairport.git
cd shairport
make
run Shairport:
./shairport.pl -a NickMooreRetroConsole
The command starts Shairport named “NickMooreRetroConsole” (change it to whatever you want)
load on boot:
cd shairport
make install
cp shairport.init.sample /etc/init.d/shairport
cd /etc/init.d
chmod a+x shairport
update-rc.d shairport defaults
add Shairport as a launch item
sudo nano shairport
P
This loads up Shairport file we need to edit. Look through the file for the “DAEMON_ARGS” line, and change it so it looks like this:
DAEMON_ARGS=”-w $PIDFILE -a NickMooreRetroConsole”
Save the file (Ctrl+X), and you’re all set. Shairport should launch on startup.

You could also use Pandora via SSH but not a big fan of that… as you have to manually start an SSH session…

You will want to overclock to med setting..

how to:

edit /boot/cmdline.txt file:
sudo nano /boot/cmdline.txt
Add quiet
dwc_otg.lpm_enable=0 console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200 console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline rootwait quiet
Press ctrl-x, type y to confirm save, then press enter and return to the terminal.
Copy your video to your Raspberry Pi
create a script that will run omxplayer on bootup.
sudo nano /etc/init.d/asplashscreen
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO

do_start () {
omxplayer /home/pi/video.mov &
exit 0
}
case “$1″ in
start|””)
do_start
;;

echo “Error: argument ‘$1′ not supported” >&2
exit 3

stop)
# No-op

echo “Usage: asplashscreen [start|stop]” >&2

esac
:
Press ctrl-x, and save
make file executable
sudo chmod a+x /etc/init.d/asplashscreen
activate
sudo insserv /etc/init.d/asplashscreen
Reboot and wait
