Pi1b rev2 recalbox 9.0 problem

[zoz]

Hi, I'm new here but not new with raspberries. I've got an issue: recalbox is unusable at first boot: I've got the funny animation, then the splashscreen and then… black or grey screen, flashes, etc. If i click on my controller lots of time I sometimes get the amstrad emulator with a pyramid game but no sound and very slow.

I've got:
a great good sd-card
an original wired xbox360 controller
a 4K TV

I tried lakka and retropie with this card and it's ok (but I don't like the interface)

Do you have any idea? something in the parameters. Merci d'avance / thanks

Hi there !

Sorry zoz, I don't come with a solution, but just to say I have the very same problem as yours.

Same Hardware (excepted for the controller, wich is a 8bitdo sn30 form me, But I think thats not related to the problem) and same recalbox version.

I'm available for any additional information you might need to solve this issue.

Best regards.

@zoz I know the post is a bit old, but if I understand the title correctly, I strongly advise against using Recalbox on a Raspberry Pi model 1B (rev. 2).

Recalbox is a great system, but for an Rpi1B, it doesn't run well. I speak from experience.

If you want a system for the Rpi1B go with Retropie. Yes, I know, it's a pain in the ass to set up, but it's the best I've tested for this hardware.

SNES games and even some PS1 games will run better on Retropie using mostly standalone emulators.

I even created my own image using Retropie to run on Rpi1B and Rpi Zero.
