PSX games always freezes on GPi case

[Danixu86]

Hello,

I write because I don't know what to do to make it work... I've tried a lot of games on the GPi case using the latest version of recalbox (7.1.1). Every time the game starts I get the same errors of this thread:
https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/19155/gpi-case-psx-crash/2

The entire SO is freezed and I have to disconnect the power to shutdown the RPi.

I've searched and in some posts talks about the bios, but I've checked all files hash and is correct (also the bios report of recalbox is green):

# md5sum scph*

Testing the Supreme GPI V2 I've seen that the pcsx rearmed emulator built in that image works better than I've expected from a RPi Zero, emulating some games that I've tested at full speed. I've tried to copy the binary file and games has started to boot in recalbox, but buttons are not working (surely any integration).

Is there any way to fix this problem?, because the libretro is slow and is impossible to play.

Thanks!

@Danixu86

also the bios report of recalbox is green

If you checked the Recalbox's internal BIOS checker and received a green thumbs up, then your BIOS is not the problem.

Every time the game starts I get the same errors of this thread

Have you tried to set up the videomode?

I'll take a look to see if I can find the way to make it work.

Hello @Zing,

Sorry for take so long to test it but I was a bit busy. I've looked into the guide that you sent and I've not found a way to configure the video mode, because I think that the display is a TFT display conected through GPIO ports and then it has no modes. I've tried to get the supported modes but nothing is reported, and I only I'm able to get the resolution:

# tvservice -s
state 0x400000 [LCD], 320x240 @ 0.00Hz, progressive

I've tried some configurations to check if maybe works, but same behaviour. Is there any way to set mode to custom?, because the smallest mode is DMT 4 which has the double of resolution.

Thanks!!
