@rciocheta as for now, I've absolutely no idea at all. Many things have changed since the last stable, including Retroarch and all libretro cores.
However, I'll investigate ASAP on that issue.

Ok. I'll continue investigating this problem too, although my programation level is very basic. I was surprised no one has reported this problem before.
Thank you so much for your quickly answer my friend.

Hello,

i have a problem with bt Controller, they lost the Connection a view minutes later after pairing with 8BitDo N30 Pro 2 (Only when WiFi is connected). The problem is only by using WiFi. Without inet or with cable I have continuous connection. May it’s helpful.

Raspberry Pi 3+ / 256 GB MicroSD / MegaPi / 2nd Beta

Retour sur tests manettes PS4 officielles sur PI 3B+ en bluetooth : avec dongle DG40S (marque Avantree), j'arrive à connecter mes deux manettes (sans le dongle impossible de les connecter). J'ai redémarré mon Raspberry plusieurs fois et elles sont toujours reconnues.

• Les jeux sur N64 sont beaucoup plus fluides que sur retropie je trouve... mais il y a encore beaucoup de jeux qui ne fonctionnent pas ou qui rament.
• Tout semble bien fonctionne pour SNES et megadrive.

@amos said in February 2019 Beta Version:

• Dreamcast : beaucoup de jeux passent bien, certains rament comme les 2 Crazi Taxi (en CDI), en revanche on doit systématiquement passer par la case horloge avant de jouer

that is the solution:

• connect pi to internet for correct internal real time-set

• go to internal dreamcast menu (x + y + a + b and then + start), when a game has started

• select your language and set todays real date and real time, but 5 minutes befor your correct real time is

• now erase the two memory card (only first time) in dreamcast menu

• DO NOT GO back to "game", simply exit now from menu with hotkey button on your pad

• now the next game start will be in your language and with no time set screen anymore!

If you don't want lost your save games, you can manually save files vmu_save_A1.bin and vmu_save_A2.bin from share/saves/dreamcast/reicast and restore after the above procedure.

big thx to maxmoro77!

Please topic for bug report not support.

Hi all,
Thank you for Recalbox. These are a couple of issues I have found on a RPi 3B+ with 64GB SD and 8bitdo controllers.

• Hiding the last game in a system crashes ES (black screen, required reboot). Reproducible each time. I have 2 games in the Intellivision system, in the menu I went to edit the game's metadata and hid it, saved and exited the menu. There is just one game showing now. I did the same thing with the remaining game and got a black screen that I could not get out of. Here is the recalbox-support taken before rebooting: https://file.ac/awIRHvXyDeQ/

• With the API enabled I tried this curl -X POST http://recalbox:1337/shutdowns but got "connection refused".

• In the Recalbox Manager, making a change in the Configuration tab and trying to save fails with the message "An error occurred while saving the configuration."

• Daphne games that were working on the Christmas beta now return to ES after a few seconds. I don't have more info so if you have some advice on debugging this I look into it.

• Saving the state in the Amiberry menu exits the emulator and returns to ES. The state is not saved. I've tried only WHDL games in lha format but it happened on all of them.

That's it for now, I hope it helps.

Beta image has no correct page alignment. When flashing the last image recalbox.2019-02-23-beta.rpi3.img.xz to an 256 GB micro SD card, I'll get the following partitions:

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 238.5 GiB, 256087425024 bytes, 500170752 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x4b10cc2b

Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/mmcblk0p1 1 131072 131072 64M c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/mmcblk0p2 131073 4325376 4194304 2G 83 Linux
/dev/mmcblk0p3 4325377 500170751 495845375 236.4G 83 Linux

It should look like this:

/dev/mmcblk0p1 1 131071 131071 63M c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/mmcblk0p2 131072 4325375 4194304 2G 83 Linux
/dev/mmcblk0p3 4325376 500170751 495845376 236,4G 83 Linux

so that micro-SD card formatting for performance and wear-leveling is more optimal.

bon en faisant un fichier .uae ça fonctionne nickel et j ai même pu voir avec le fichier sur le wiki qu on peut modifier pas mal de chose ce qui est plutôt génial , je vais devoir regarder ça de plus près et peut être que je parviendrais a faire fonctionner les zool en version cd32 ^^

[virtualhours]

I would like to always run the amiberry with a config-file.
FILE NAME? DIRECTORY? CONTENT? I DO NOT REALLY KNOW!

?? amiga600.uae ??

;gfx
gfx_width=768
gfx_height=216
gfx_correct_aspect=true

@virtualhours did you even bother rzading the wiki ?

[Choum]

@voljega The path in the wiki is wrong for amiberry config by system.

[voljega]

@choum what do you mean ? still good on a per-game basis

also maybe doc hasn't been updated after last beta work and for config by system

[tarzinio]

The pad does not work from xbox one s. It does not work over bluetooth and through the usb module (provided by xbox).

After updating from the system level, the system does not work at all, the system has been updated, rebooted and the nil did not display outside the "load" icon.

@tarzinio I will add that I have RASPBERRY Pi 3 b +

Bug Report :

J'utilise le gamepad virtuel pour configurer la recalbox , et il demande d'être configuré ce qui ne devrait pas arrivé.
Je pense que la configuration dans le es_input.cfg est manquante.

Just a small thing, the Security page in the Recalbox Manager is not localised. It is always in French regardless of the language actually selected.
