Bonjour,
Plusieurs soucis de mon coté :

• manettes n30 pro à reconfigurer à chaque lancement
  _ plantage au lancement de jeux, sur différents systèmes, malgré la reprog des manettes.
  Je remets ma manette sans fil avec dongle usb et tout refonctionne.
  Quelle est la solution ?

Merci
Raspberry pi3 b+
micro sd 32go
manettes 8btido n30 pro

[pkerga]

j'ai également des soucis aussi avec la manette usb freebox, ca fait planter les jeux et l'ensemble des boutons n'est pas fonctionnelle (L2 par exemple). Pas de souci par contre avec les boutons de ma borne d'arcade raccordés via USB.

[pkerga]

i also have trouble with my freebox usb controler. No problem with my arcade controler.

I used the "pi3/cm3/pi3b+" image on a arcade setup with gpio (2 joysticks + 17 buttons).
So far no problems ! Great job !

PS: It could be nice that gpio controllers be enable via the menu.

@Substring Hello, great job ! it works pretty well (I'm on the pi version).
Archive support: https://file.ac/zIrDHHSFAzc/
However, I have some issues with the 8 bitdo sfc 30 pro controller:

• Test on the n64 zelda oot when I press the trigger L2 (maps as z on the n64 controller ) it acted as if I was leaning on it, no way to remove the aim.

• When I press the hotkey, it changes the shader (as if I was doing the combination hotkey + L2)

• In doom when I press the trigger R2 he alternates between bare hand and weapon which makes the game impossible to play

• That's not a problem but to activate my controller in game, I have to press L2+R2 otherwise my controller is not working.

• In the menu retroarche, I have big difficulties to move to choose an option.

Test with an Xbox 360 wired controller and I did not have any of those problems.

• Then on ES I sometimes have black screen completely random but rare enough to not deteriorate my gaming experience.

For the moment that's all my feedback that I have to share

Thanks.

Hello

Thank you for this release which can allow me to test Recalbox on my Raspberry 3b+.
My configuration for the test :

• Raspberry 3b+
• Superpi case with safe shutdown activated
• USB SNES Joypad Bufalo Classic
• I uncomment the parameter PIN356ONOFFRESET

All is working well until now except:

• Power LED does not switch on
• Recalbox reboots when I hot plug a SNES pad

Hello.
First of all : I'm a noob.
That's my very first configuration (Rpi3B+, Superpi Case with shutdown, 2x 8bitdo SFC30pro) so it's kind of hard for me to make the difference between systemic issue and specific issue linked to this beta version.

1. A lot of issues with bluetooth connection for the 2x SFC30pro, resolved by a connection through the USB-C cables.
   Are you still working on the bluetooth for Rpi3 or is-it a beta's problem ?

2. Lag on some N64 games (seems normal), will you add some overclock menu with the Rpi3B+ to go upper than 1400MHz ?

3. Sound output auto : sometimes it doestn't work with HDMI connection (need to specifie HDMI output, then it goes fine).

4. distant restart doesn't work most of the time. could it be an interaction with the superpi case and the "local" restart ?

5. system often crash when I push it to far (like trying to scrappe other than 8000 roms in one time...)

Otherwize you're work is very impressive (since now emulation could be used by everyone).

Hello,

I'm a new user of Recalbox. (i know, an other noob... and more : i'm french !)
I use a Rpi3B+, with a noname SD card (class 10, 32gb), and Kingston usb key.
(I'm waiting my Sandisk SDcard and Sandisk Usb key)
My gamepad is an original PS3 gamepad.
I've install the img direct link with Etcher on my sd card.

Many problem with my config :

• Impossible to use de ps3 gamepad in BlueTooth : so many problem after quit a game, like the gamepad needs to be remap but impossible to go to the menu...
• Issue with the virtual Keyboard you know
• And the most important issue : big problems with EStation. Impossible to quit or reboot from ES menu : always crash and black screen. I always have to quit with the webmanager. But sometimes, when i scrap some games (just 300 or 500), it crash with webmanager too.
  So sometimes i loose my scrap or favorites.

I'will try to post a report, when i will have understand how to do it...

Good job, and Goodluck !

[OldGreg]

About favorites and scrap :

• Two or three times i reset my gamelist.xml for megadrive and supernes, and always problems. I can have scraps, but not favorites. When i had them, most of the times they no longer there next times. And sometimes, all the scraps are erased.

May be my kingston usb or my noname sd ? I'll tell you after i recept a better material than actually.

[darksouljedi]

I found how to use gpio controler.
it works on the main screen.
I can go in sub menu, change parameters ,....

but when I try to start a game, it go back to the main menu.
In the controler parameters, I select controler 1 & 2 -> gpio
nothing change.

how to resolve this problem ?
Is it necessary to use an us controler ?

thanks for the job & help

Hello, I can't Edit the recalbox.conf file to set updates.type from "stable" to "theUrlOfFirstUpdate".
when i save the file (i'm using WinScp), and go back to it, the url is replaced by "stable".
So when I update the recalbox after the reboot I have a yellow lightning on top right of my screen, so I have to flash my sd again with the orginial file.
I have a 3b+.

[Marcos Breviglieri]

Is there a newer beta than the one previously available? Are we close to the stable version being released?

@Substring did not post anything on this forum for more than a month! Is he okay? ️

[voljega]

@maxmoro77 he left the project

[mi7chy]

@voljega We greatly appreciate his contribution but are there other developers continuing the effort or is Recalbox on hold if he was the sole developer?

[voljega]

@mi7chy there are other developers continuing the project

Glad to heard this.

Some precision about my message above : each time I start a game, both of my two SFC30pro controllers are disconnected.
That doesn't occur with USB-c connexion.

[Damn_it666]

after install, recalbox want an update. I try it, than it was all black on the screen.
Wired CSL GamePad works .. (i have an 3b+) but no one game starts … after changing Simulator it starts not, too.
