@toniosj I finaly found the solution with your tip. I create a new share folder (with the same settings than my other folder ROMS) on my NAS and use:
sharenetwork_smb1=SHARE@192.168.100.x:Recalbox:username=xxxx,password=xxxxx,vers=1.0
I copied all folders and files from the INTERNAL share in my share folder on my NAS and it works! Now i test if i can share the same folder for my PI2 also (i'm not sure). Otherwise i will try with two lines for ROMS and SAVE. Thanks again toniosj!

Do you recommend buying a PI 3 or PI 3+?

I want to use a Bluetooth Joystick.

@rouglas Hi Rouglas, i'm using Pi3b+ and Pi3b. I prefer Pi3b+, more systems, more fun and a bit more powerfull CPU. With the x-mas beta, new systems are added. It's not difficult to install. Concerning ur pads, both systems support PS3 and PS4 pads. Take care to use joysticks, pads that are compatible with Recalbox. Read official tutorials to know if ur joysticks are supported.
Good game and have fun

Don't forget to delete your old gamelist.xml file.

Hi, I‘d prefer Pi3 B+ too, because internal bluetooth is much better. No more input lag like on Pi3 B. -> On Pi3 B I have to use CSR based USB bluetooth dongle, which brings issues with latest 8Bitdo pads though!

I can confirm, DualShock 4 (PS4 Pad 2nd Gen) is working fine too with Pi3 B+‘s internal blutooth, same as latest 8Bitdo Pads (G Bros and SF30 Pro), all working like a charm.

It just depends if you can wait for stable and/or you can live with remaining issues of beta. -> If you want a stable version NOW, choose Pi3 B. But on the other hand you may have to live with other disadvantages like lag of its interernal bluetooth then. It‘s not easy to make a decision at all as nobody can say when new stable for Pi3 B+ will be released

@grinningmoon can you elaborate? I've tried your suggestions. I've tried disabled "Enable Fanart" and "Enable Trailer (Youtube)" in The Movie Database scrapper. I've tried opening System/Settings/Media Settings to disable "Allow file renaming and deletion", "Extract thumbnails and video information", "Extract chapter thumbnails", "replace file names with library titles", and "Download actor thumbnails". Nothing is working. Can you please explain what I really shoud do? Thank you

I prefer Pi3b+, more systems,

As far as I know there isn't more systems for pi3b+ than pi3b ?
Some of them might work a little better but that's all, is that what you meant ?

[Scavy]

@voljega Atari 800, Atari 5200, plus new systems Pokémini, Mattel intellivision on the x-mas build and so on...
They aren't present on the stable RPI3b version.

[paradadf]

@scavy but those systems are also available in the beta for other boards, not only the pi3b+.

[Scavy]

@paradadf Yes, and that's why i talked about the stable build.

[paradadf]

@scavy yes but you said

I prefer Pi3b+, more systems

And that point is misleading, nothing more.

Hello !
With the new core mame 2003 plus, what is the button to access service mode ?
On mame 2003 it's F2, but on 2003 plus F2 do Nothing.

Is it a problem only on my side, or service mode button has been forgotten on the beta for mame2003 + ?

[paradadf]

@choum such things come from the emulator itself and not from recalbox. Your best bet is to look into its documentation (if any) or ask in github/libretro‘s forum.

[Scavy]

@paradadf i see what you mean... But if you want to use a beta version (with more systems) of recalbox for your coming RPi, which one will you buy ? A 3b or a 3b+ version ? in that case, the question is nonsense you'll choose the 3b+ ^^

[Choum]

@paradadf I found the settings to change :

Hotkey + B to open retroarch menu
quick menu -> options -> input interface -> simultaneous

After that you can open service mode for some roms with F2 on keyboard

[OldGreg]

@scavy : They try to explain to you : the beta isn't ONLY on Pi 3B+. That's the reason why you seems to be not enough precise.
(i'm french, sorry if my english is approximative)

[ottomanhlc]

Which version of the recalbox I installed on my computer or I encountered wifi problem, or I scratched the resolution problem.

@jorgemagana FBA_libretro romset in beta ist still 0.2.97.43 not 0.2.97.44

Thanks for answering.

In FBA libretro with last stable version I had all installed roms working. With beta more than half did't work anymore. I had a veryfied 0.2.97.43 romset.

Same situation with NeoGeo folder.

With beta none of the 0.2.97.43 NeoGeo roms work anymore (with last stable all worked 100%)

Finally I did another fresh install and everything worked again.
