Testers wanted: major system upgrade (Pi3b+, KODI 17 and much more ...)

[TheGirou_]

@jass76 Sinon avec universal XML scrapper ça fonctionne aussi, on peut même trouver sur le ghitub un mix profil qui reprend l'apparence de base du scrapper interne

Hello à tous, pas moyen de faire l'image pour ma pi3b+, lorsque je lance etcher, à la fin il me met " voulais vous formatez blablabla " une partition qui n'existé pas, puisque que ma carte était formater en fat32. J'ai vraiment besoin de vous les gars je vais pleuré! les pi3b etait plus simple ^^

Made the update, because I am an Atari 800 fan from the first Hour. This works fine. Putting my old roms back on this new release only result in black screen of version info. Could anyone tell me where it hangs then is it not possible to show what is working at. At the moment for me this Version sucks and like all versions before because it not tells wher it hangs in bootup. For the raspberry willtry the odroid too

Hello I made a fresch flash with the Christmas beta and now the Dreamcast games don't start anymore.
Anybody else have this problem?

Hello everyone,

First, thanks to the developers for their work

I have the same problem as fosi, the Dreamcast emulator doesn’t work on RPI 3b + with the latest update 2018.12.24.Christmas.Beta

It's as if the bios are not present, whereas they are in the good folder.
The emulator worked with the beta 11/29/18 with the same bios.

Someone have an idea ?

Hi Guys,
Same problem for me in my fresh new Pi3B+.

I've use etcher to flash a new sd card, + copy my USB drive content (from latst stable on my Pi3) to a new one (fat32). Everythings works exept :

• Dreamcast games wont boot anymore (same external pen drive as I used on the latest stable version, so same ROMS). + Some times I get a message like "under voltage detected", but I have a 5A powersupply and never had this with the PI3. Any idea ?
• The scrapper does not work anymore (verry slow and doesn't save anything),
• I'm not able to save any setting (as I said, I use externale USB drive), everything seems to be lost after the next reboot
• My wifi 5ghz won't connect
• There is somme issues with the virtual keyboard (some letters aren't in the viewport on my 4/3)

I have on extrat question, did you notice performance improvements with the PI3b+ ? I mean, do you have games that were laggy before and are now working well with this new upgrade?

Btw, thanks for you awesome work. This project is awesome!

Pi3B+ christmas beta.
Que du bon, ma SF30pro qui ne fonctionnait pas sur la beta précédente, fonctionne a merveille dorénavant.

Merci

@alex592 à la fin quand la proposition de formatage arrive tu fais annuler sur la boite de dialogue windows puis tu retire ton media, en fait tout c'est bien passé c'est juste que pour windows le format des fichiers sur la carte sd n'est pas reconnu.

Une fois annulé et apres avoir retiré la sd et l'avoir mise dans ton raspberry l'install de recalbox se lance.

Hi Everyone !

Thanks to the dev team for this Xmas gift :D.

Same problem on Dreamcast to be reported on this latest version on my side:
Recalbox running on:

• Raspberry Pi 3 B+
• Gamepad Logitech F310
• with the default theme
• Roughly 20 Dreamcast games (I've tried on several games which were working on the previous beta : Soulcalibur, Sonic Adventure 2, Re-Volt, Rayman 2...)

Extensions : .cdi
Bios : As reported on readme file checksum (dc_bios, dc_boot, dc_flash)

Thanks for the hard work!

Hi guys,
I had a RPi 3 B+ for xmas. I'd like to try my second xmas present -> this new Recalbox. However I'm still a noob.

My goal is to have a dual boot with Raspbian (for Jeedom) using NOOBS.

I don't know how to convert the img.xz into a the same format as in: os/recalboxOS-rpi3/ from "recalboxOS-4.1.0.zip" (download here https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/releases)
Even when I mount "recalbox.rpi3.18.12.24.Christmas.beta.img", I don't find the same structure.

Any thoughts guys?
Thanks a lot.

[alex592]

@jass76 Ah ! je teste de suite merci

[alex592]

@alex592 @Jass76 Malheureusement rien... Pour le coup à la fin de etcher, le pc ma rien dit cette fois ci, mais j'avais bien plusieurs partitions de créer?! Retirer et lancer dans le rasp, rien ecran noir, led rouge....

[housygt]

@voljega -=SOLVED=- In one of the Folders was an ini file In older Version no Problem. Sry for saying sucks, in the black screen could be a feedback available whats going on at the moment. Eventually there is a hotkey or something to enable this. Recalbox is really phenomenal work. Excuse me.

It s a beta
It s not avaible for noobs now.

[caxelair]

@acris cheers for the answer.
And there is not way I could tweak/rename/replace files to get what I want?

Edit: found this https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Convert-RetroPie-SD-Card-Image-to-NOOBS-Image/, dunno if it's working, I'll give it a try once I'll receive my new microSD.

It s a beta it s not advisable ti make a dualboot, be clear....

Hi,

same scrapper problem (doesn't save anything) for me in my fresh new Odroid xu4q installation.

[lexx]

Whenever I exit from Kodi after the initial setup back to the Frontend, I can't start it anymore.
Still trying to figure out why.

Doesn't matter if I load my Kodi Backup or if I don't change anything at all.
After the first exit I can't start it again. It throws me back to Emulationstation after showing the Kodi 17.6 splashscreen.

Been trying to get it to run for the last 12 hours.
Anyone got an idea?

Using a Raspberry Pi 3B+, a 1TB Seagate USB HDD.

Another problem, as mentioned above, if I select an external storage, I can't SSH anymore. Every connection gets blocked.

Bonsoir a tous,
J'ai installé la beta de Noël sur mon Pi2 et je voudrais tester le remapping du GPIO
Que faut il faire pour remapper les boutons du GPIO ?
Merci a tous et bonnes fêtes

[Jass76]

@alex592 tu avais bien formaté ta carte sd avant de re essayer? moi a chaque fois que je me sers d'etcher à la fin de la procédure windows me sort le message.

Sois patient aussi, l'installation met quelque temps à démarrer (qq dizaines de secondes je dirais)

[aerao]

Hello,
Depuis la sortie des différentes versions beta, je les aient toutes testés sur mon Pi3b+ pendant plusieurs heures avec mes amis.

Je dois dire que la dernière version recalbox.rpi3.18.12.24.Christmas.beta est super stable et que ce qui ne fonctionnait pas ou mal avant, dans mon cas, est à ce jour fonctionnel.

Bravo à toute l'équipe !

Je remonte quelques bugs(?) que j'ai trouvé aujourd'hui :
ma config :
Carte micro sd pour le système, clé usb 64go en Fat32 pour les roms
Bartop avec boutons branchés sur GPIO (avec le GPIO enable=1 dans le fichier conf)
paramètre de démarrage / liste de jeux uniquement sur ON.

• Quand recalbox est lancé, il m'est impossible de mettre une rom en favori, si j’éteins l'OS et que je redémarre ensuite, rien n'a été pris en compte, je dois le faire manuellement dans le fichier gamelist.xml pour que cela fonctionne (<favorite>true</favorite>)
• sans rien faire sur certaines consoles, après avoir débranché la clé usb et remis sur le pc, je constate que certains fichiers gamelist.xml sont renommé en GAMELIST.XML (en majuscule, pourquoi ?)
• Pourquoi dans certains dossier, des fichiers gamelist.xml.xml en parallèle des fichiers gamelist.xml sont crées (alors que je n'ai rien fait à part lancé des roms (ou pas) quelque seconde pour voir si tout fonctionne)
• certaines roms (romset mame2010) avec le pack overlays (arcade) 720p rament complétement (freeze/lags de plusieurs secondes, voir arrêt complet), en outre hotkey+start pour sortir du jeu fonctionne très bien. (note : pas de problème sur la précédente béta)

cordialement.

---------------------

Hello,
Since the release of various beta versions, I have tested all the versions on my Pi3b+, for many hours with my friends.

I must say that the latest version recalbox.rpi3.18.12.24.Christmas.beta is very stable and many things didn't work before, works now!

Congratulations to the recalbox team!

I give you the bugs(?) what I found today:
my config:
Micro SD card for the OS, 64GB USB key in Fat32 for Roms.
Bartop with buttons, connected to GPIO (with GPIO enable=1)
Boot settings/gamelist only : ON.

• When recalbox is launched, it's impossible to put a rom in favorite, if I turn off the OS and then I restart, nothing was saved, I have to do it manually in the gamelist.xml file for it to work (<favorite> true </ favorite>)
• without doing anything on some consoles, after having disconnected the usb key and put back on the pc, I notice that some gamelist.xml files are renamed in GAMELIST.XML (capitalized, why?)
• Why in some folders, gamelist.xml.xml files are created, just next to gamelist.xml (while I i didn't do anything other than roms for a few seconds to see if everything works)
• some roms (romset mame2010) with the 720P overlays pack (arcade overlays), freeze/lags of several seconds, or crash), In contrast hotkey + start to exit the game works fine. (no problem on the previous beta)

Sincerely.
