Rb 7.2 on rpi 3b+ - PSX emulator gpio problems ?

[Zing]

@Space81 Check the menu, there is a factory reset option, you will not lose any personal data in the process, but the settings will be reset, most users with joystick problems are doing this and are solving the problem (if in doubt, do backup first).

@Zing thanks, do you mean in the Recalbox menu? can you please be more precise? if I perform a factory reset I will then have to reset everything in the config file; I have the iso backup of my whole system, so I could try again to update to 7.2 ( I was back to 7.1.1 now ) thanks for your always punctuality and courtesy.

@Zing i just found this post : https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/23901/7-2-manettes-inopérantes-dans-émulateur-psx

Tomorrow i will try ! Thanks

do you mean in the Recalbox menu?

Yes, the emulationstation menu, access by pressing Start in the selection of consoles, go to advanced settings, and you will find the factory reset (sorry, English is not my native language, and I don't have my Rpi around, so the terms can be different in English, and I can't be more precise than that right now),

I will then have to reset everything in the config file

The reset will keep all your personal data, but it will reset all settings.
If you have a full backup, it may be easier to do a clean install of the latest version instead of updating and resetting, and, before configuring everything, test only with problematic games, but you decide.

@Zing very Thanks

Unfortunately after several attempts and more or less serious bugs, I returned to RB 7.1.1.
In fact in my case it was not necessary to start from scratch with rb 7.2, the PSX games were back to work, but unfortunately the Amiga ones do not correctly detect the joy gpio, forcing me to manually set them for each game every time :(, also as he writes in another post, moving my microsd to a windows card reader, the share partition is no longer displayed on windows, there are also many other small things that made me give up, for the first time, after many hours of testing, maybe i will upgrade directly to RB 8 , thank you all for your immense work

@Space81

the share partition is no longer displayed on windows,

It is a Windows bug, just associate a letter with the partition, as mentioned in the other post.

but unfortunately the Amiga ones do not correctly detect the joy gpio, forcing me to manually set them for each game every time

Read this topic, it is not the same emulator, but the problem is similar, the same solution should work for you:

[Space81]

@Zing thanks for your infinite patience, I'll try again.

@Zing I tried to execute your guide above, where it specifically says :

"In the retroarch menu (hotkey + b), go to Settings and then Input user 1 keys"

but unfortunately in the case of the Amiga emulator (Amiberry), the hotkey + b command does not refer to the retroarch menu, but to Amiberry itself, so unfortunately in this case it is not possible to configure the input commands except from time to time.

@Space81 Ignore this part, you have already configured the joystick in a game, copy that configuration and see about the configuration overload, which was the solution used by the other user:

@Zing from documentation link :

"Standalone emulators
We can't currently overload the configuration of standalone emulators except for Amiberry's and Amiga for ARM's, partially.

Adding these overloads isn't on the calendar, since they require code and specific tests. This more or less isn't doable for every emulator, but in any case, this will require a rather substantial amount of work time.

However, depending on the demand and its relevancy, we could eventually work on a per-case basis."

@space81

except for Amiberry's and Amiga for ARM's, partially.

That is, there are some options available for Amibery, unfortunately I can't say which ones, but, did you get to test it?

There are other reports apparently:

There is a beta version available for testing:
