RecalBox 8.0 Beta on Pi3+B on TV Tube 14PL screen locked in PacMan ghosts.

Hi, Im sorry to complain, but I was on 7.2.2 (with problems to get my hifiberry digi+ working) and today I was offered to update to 8.
Result: no roms are working anymore, my sound still doesn't work and my screen has the wrong aspect ratio. (it is 16:9 but my LCD monitor is 4:3).
I don't know what to do now.
AFAIK there is no way to downgrade to 7.2.2 again, right?
Please help me.

@gianpaoloracca I also have the problem with 8.0 so I found 7.2.2 archived version. Enjoy

@wizzard thanks!

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.

Still no Fix with Final Version 8

Got a GPi Case, a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and Recalbox 8.0. The Scraper doesn't work. But the bigger problem is I moved 65 megadrive roms (.md file format) into the md folder but they don't show up whereas the other games do. What's going on?

Hello!

What needs to write and where now to activae composite output at Rb Pi4 with Recalbox 8???

I mean it's need to write sdtvmode=0\1\2 at config.txt or where else now to get picture in composite?

[IGA]

@iga ok? it still needs to change line line dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi4
to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d in config.txt

• Why?

Will it be possible to output 15khz via the "VGA" D-Sub connector? (While also getting audio via HDMI?)

@bkg2k

not sure if i should ask you this here but

the issue of
"Dreamcast no longer runs off the joystick, you have to use the D-pad. playing marvel vs capcom is unbearable for my kids"
is persistent in the final version while playing Marvel vs capcom

weird thing is that SMK vs Capcom the joystick works.

Fresh install of 8.0

@paulska Retroarch changed the way sticks and dpad are enabled. If there is no stick used in original game, it won't work here too.

You can force their use by going into RetroArch settings (Hotkey + B in game) then go to Controls > Port 1 Controls > Analog to Digital Type and select any of the 2 forced options.

@pitch64

ill try that, and also try other games, maybe the config for whole dreamcast digital/analog is swapped in the final version. So possibly a mistake on their part which im guessing they would like to revert.

Hi, I am currently using Recalbox 6 on RP3b+ which I have configured for CRT support. I am using Jack-3xRCA cable.

Does the new Recalbox support this type of connection? If not, can you add it?

Well,

it seems that this depends on your Questions.

For starters I would suggest you look here

https://wiki.recalbox.com/en/emulators/consoles/playstation-1/duckstation

and here

https://github.com/stenzek/duckstation/

Maybe some of your Questions will be answerd there.

@alvin still about fullscreen...

• in previous release of recalbox (8.0) fullscreen in duckstation worked correctly, but was bug with controls and key mapping (Disabled gamepad in duckststion )

Now controls work, problem with fullscreen

I don't suppose that is Stenzek by himself responsible for it as developer of duckstation - probably people who make port of duckstation to recalbox know about it better as they recalbox's developers...
