@antonioverdirame grazie mille per il tuo grande lavoro di traduzione :)

@acris I did every explained in the first method, including reseting the controller bluetooth history. I event disconnect the ps4 just to be sure

Tried various things with .conf files above after getting root (/) filesystem mounted as rw, but still unable to get things working.

Used retroarch directly after stopping emulationstation manually, i.e.
retroarch --menu --verbose ; customretroarch definitely being read-in including the following audio settings. have confirmed that audio_device is @ 0,1 and modified the audio_driver with alsa too.

retroarch --features compiled with ALSA as expected, nothing else valid to use:

audio_enable = "true"
audio_driver = "alsa"
audio_device = "hw:0,1"
audio_sync = "true"

simply getting an "failed to initialize audio" error from retroarch log:

[ERROR] [ALSA]: Failed to initialize... [ERROR] Failed to initialize audio driver. Will continue without audio.

--

decided to take a good look at osmc config with retro and what its using:
audio_driver = "alsathread"
audio_resampler = "sinc"
audio_device = ""
audio_sync = "true"

I emulated this in recalbox, and the errors in retroarch stop with the following in the retroarch startup as in osmc

[INFO] ALSA: Using signed 16-bit format.
[INFO] ALSA: Period size: 384 frames
[INFO] ALSA: Buffer size: 1536 frames

so figured I was onto something, however still no sound.

really just clueless now. remember, I launch emulation in osmc (from kodi) and I start up a game... audio just works.

i suppose my next question is: is there something in kodi that launches stuff correctly or emulation station, or is this simply a recalbox 'startup driver problem' that doesnt recognize the audio correctly. can anyone shed light on this for me?

Peace.

@oyyodams yes indeed but the one I got came with the new switch support packaging and last firmware from factory, so it seems very recent, maybe there's a new BT chip or something new hardware wise that triggers that PIN code request, well anyway it's "fixed" but new owners may come across this issue too.

Hi All,

New version of ARRM available :

1.8.0.5 (12/01/2019)

Modification of the filter panel: now it is a panel with tab: 'Filters', 'Research'. Wiki : http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=interface-en#the_database_list_of_roms_3 Modification of the filter panel + add checkboxes 'without screenshot', 'without boxart', 'without mark', 'without manual' The search by keyword on the roms can be done independently on the name of the game, name of rom or description The 'Select all', 'All deselected' and 'No filter' buttons are accessible directly for the 'Filters' and 'Search' modules (request from Andearoid JujuVinceBros forum) Add a 'Manual' field in the database Added a 'Region' field (of the form 'us, eu, jp ...) in the database containing the regions of a given game. Display region flags in mixes if the <region> tag is true. Customizable in template files (region1 and region2 tags). All templates have been updated to allow the display of flags. wiki : http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=templates_available_fr#ajouter_des_drapeaux_dans_vos_mix If no regions available, possibility to display the 'World' flag via the checkbox 'World Flag?' in the Tools tab
  If you want to display them, edit the xml of the template edit the tag <region> to TRUE (request of foclabroc on discord jujuvincebros) Button 'Add Flag' in tab 'Tools' allows to add the flags to the image without having to re-scrape. The template selected must be the one originally used on the existing image and have the <region1> and <region2> tags that indicate the position of the flag. Note: the <region> true </ region> tag is not needed. Added a button 'Recover Media' in the panel 'Tools' to recover, on Screenscraper, the wheels of the present systems. (allows for updated system wheels for display in the 'Information Rom' panel) Checkbox in front of the textual elements of the 'ROM Information' panel. Only checked items are refreshed during a scrap. (Jay's request on Recalbox forum) wiki : http://jujuvincebros.fr/wiki/arrm/doku.php?id=edit_game_data-en Remove the 'Auto Association Association' button from the 'Systems' panel, redundant with the 'Auto template' button Now in 4-image mode, the screenshot is saved in its native format without adding "black bars" Modification of the template 'super famicom' and addition of the template 'snes us' (request of Andearoid forum JujuVinceBros) Checkbox 'Only' for 'Force media' in tab 'images options': if checked only the media of the checked country are retrieved. No fallback to other media available. (request from Andearoid JujuVinceBros forum) Added a combobox to choose between Handbrake and FFmpeg for video compression. (request from Andearoid on JujuVinceBros forum and thanks for the settings) Addition of a checkbox ".ZIP" allowing to prioritize the calculation of the MD5 / CRC32 on the file contained in the .ZIP / .7z during mass calculation of the CRC32/MD5 or Check name with MD5 or Hash (crcC32)

@journeyman maybe you can look at link text

@azvarel I'm running global.videomode = DMT 35 DVI and it's working

Too cool!!!

Just uploading a new update.  Still missing the SG-1000 theme, however, have now uploaded 'clean-720' which will run all 20 systems and only consume 107MB of memory!  This is less than the stock theme so ideal for Raspberry Pi 1 users. You can access all my themes at: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/ypp92a26q516k/Recalbox Will continue to update and tweak my themes.
