Recalbox 8.0 Beta!
-
@dolpingates Thank you for your report, we will investigate as soon as possible
-
hi, I have tried the beta on my CRT TV, a Sony KV-21FX30E.
My configuration is RPi3b+ and PI2Scart.The screen is shaking, the image is not stable in EmulationStation.
I do not have this problem on 7.1 with hdmi.timings set for emulationstation. the image is perfect. I have specific hdmi.timings set in recalbox.conf for each system and ES.
Where in 8.0 can you set the exact timing for each resolution? I'd like to set the same I have on 7.1
-
I have checked the CRT folder in /recalbox/share/system/configs/, unfortunately it's empty.
I was expecting to find the modes.txt, system.txt and
arcade_games.txt -
@valippo emulationstation timings are in
timings.txt, the file is on theRECALBOXpartition.For the overrides files, they are not created by default, you should create them manually.
Can you tell me what are your timings please ?
-
@**digitalumberjack
these are the timings that I am currently using on 7.1.1
For EmulationStation I use the 450x270 since it makes text so much easier to read.is it possible to override or modify the timings in timings.txt in the Recalbox partition? is it the same as overriding a system timing?
I am trying to follow the instructions to add my overrides but I cannot find the /recalbox/system/configs/crt/ with the default values. I have set my Windows to show hidden and system files but I cannot find the system folder in the recalbox partition.## Video modes system.es.videomode=hdmi_timings 450 1 49 30 91 270 1 1 1 30 0 0 0 50 0 9600000 1 #system.es.videomode=hdmi_timings 320 1 10 20 54 240 1 6 8 10 0 0 0 60 0 6400000 1 global.videomode=hdmi_timings 450 1 49 30 91 270 1 1 1 30 0 0 0 50 0 9600000 1 snes.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 mastersystem.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 megadrive.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 neogeo.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 segacd.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 sega32x.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 fbneo.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 1 3 18 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 psx.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 n64.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 dreamcast.videomode=DMT 4 HDMI nes.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 fds.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 msx.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 msx2.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 pcengine.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 mame.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 gb.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 gba.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 gbc.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 intellivision.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 gamegear.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 lynx.videomode=hdmi_timings 1600 1 88 150 197 240 1 2 3 17 0 0 0 60 0 32000000 1 -

Thanks for the great beta! One issue below:[GPi Case] Raspberry Pi Zero W (not 2)
Mostly this is performing incredibly well. PCSX works now finally, and runs great. Many other issues also fixed, however FBA2X performed well on the last release but now does not work well at all. This particular emulator is needed for the low powered Pi Zero.
I place my usual compatible roms into the fba folder as before, but upon launching a game I get the screenshot added here. Display is moved onto it's side. Not only is the display skewed in this way, but no controls work. No buttons, no hotkeys, and also no audio either. Device must be hard powered off to exit. Note: These are PiFBA compatible CPS and NeoGeo roms, and should work fine with FBA2X. They worked well on previous releases and other OS's using PiFBA.
Previously on the last release, the display was squished down from 4:3 but otherwise worked well. See also screen grab below of last release. On beta, sadly broken.
Hope you can fix before release. The performance is otherwise quite astonishing for such a low power device.

@valippo you can change es timings in timings.txt, and every other timings in overrides files.
Make some test, and tell me what works for you

Doesn’t the Pi 4 firmware prevent proper 240P support unlike the Pi 3? Things like resolution switching etc. don’t work properly?

I wanted to report Wi-Fi on my Intel NUC (NUC7i7BNH) with Intel Wireless-AC 8265 Card still not working properly. After 7.1 Version it won't connect with my FritzBox 7590 Router (No changes made on the Router since 7.1 Version) The only way to connect is with WPS, but after a Restart it doesn't connect anymore, I have to do the WPS Procedure every time.

I would like to report some bugs and suggestions for possible improvements.
*First version 8.0 is not working on HDMI 1080i, only on 1080p, before it worked on reclbox 7.2.2.
*Second I would also like to focus on the Raspiberi's native AV output, as most users buy it to use on older RCA TVs.
And enjoy the nostalgia of old televisions.
Thanks for listening. -
Hello! I own a Retrotink Ultimate and I would like to know if it would be compatible with CRT output on Recalbox 8.0 beta. Thanks in advance!
-
Hi! I would like to report a bug that I noticed in the beta version. On raspberry Pi 4b, using Mupen64plus Rice I noticed performance loss compared to version 7.2.2, goldeneye is slower.
Another thing I've noticed in other versions is that if I change the default installation core in the settings menu, I can't use that core in the individual configuration for games anymore.
Sorry my english is not my native language. Thanks in advance!

@bkg2k hello I tried the Beta 1 version with raspberry Pi 3 a + and when leaving or wanting to launch some games, the console freezes with version 7.2.2 I could not exit the games, with this new one I can exit but in some it does not leave me and in others I can not enter the games I do not have any theme installed it is all original.

You are on the international part of the forum, so speak in english, use google translator or deepl if you cannot speak english.
Your problem doesn't seem to be related to version 8.0 beta, it seems to be just a beginner's doubt, in this case the ideal is to open a new topic, and if you want to speak in Portuguese, use the Portuguese part of the forum:
https://forum.recalbox.com/category/25/portuguêsEverything indicates that you are using a ROM in a format that the system does not recognize (.rar for example), check the readme.txt file that is inside each folder of each console to know the correct formats and the need for BIOS (If there is a need).
Você está na parte internacional do fórum, então fale em inglês, use o google tradutor ou o deepl se você não souber falar inglês.
Seu problema não parece estar relacionado com a versão 8.0 beta, parece ser apenas uma dúvida de iniciante, neste caso o ideal é abrir um novo tópico, e se quiser falar em português, use a parte em português do fórum:
https://forum.recalbox.com/category/25/portuguêsTudo indica que você está usando uma ROM em um formato que o sistema não reconhece (.rar por exemplo), verifique o arquivo readme.txt que está dentro de cada pasta de cada console para saber os formatos corretos e as BIOS necessárias (quando há necessidade de BIOS).

RPi Zero 2W: 1. scrapper doesnt work. Even though connected to the network the scrapper finds 0 data.
- Kodi not working properly, asking for addons and stuff and freezes in the end.
-
For all scrap issues, please check with ScreenScraper staff first. This public beta was tested before we made it public and scrap worked fine. They could still have issues following their shutdown for maintenance last week.

is recalbox beta version is good to use?
