[4.1-Unstable] Bug reports

[acris]

Go to emulationstation > sound options > hdmi or other.

[Substring]

@Dwarf You'd need to explain more : is your sound output set to auto ? hdmi ? or a USB key ? Where do you expect sound to come from ?

[eclipse16g]

@substring Since this latest update, I also lose sound after the intro video. I must toggle sound output between Auto and Jack or vice versa to bring it back. I have to do this on every bootup. Also the volume bar also changes, ie. might be 95 , then 97 on next boot.

[Substring]

@eclipse16g the volume indicator has always been moving on its own ...
regarding the sound, what is your usual audio output ?

[eclipse16g]

@substring I use the audio jack output, and I didn't notice the volume indicator moving before this last update, but I had no reason to go into the sound menu before either. This only happens with full shutdown or reboot. If I stop and start emulation station, the sound still works fine.

[Substring]

@eclipse16g mind making me a support archive with http://recalbox/help ? (add .local to recalbox if you're on linux/mac)

@RustyMG for the AppleII problems ... well, on the big job that rewriting the generation of the es_system.cfg, there were a few mistakes See by yourself :

  <system>
    <fullname>Apple II</fullname>
    <name>apple2</name>
    <path>/recalbox/share/roms/apple2</path>
    <extension>.iso .ISO .gc .GC .gcz .GCZ</extension>
    <command>python /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/configgen/emulatorlauncher.pyc %CONTROLLERSCONFIG% -system %SYSTEM% -rom %ROM% -emulator %EMULATOR% -core %CORE% -ratio %RATIO%</command>
    <platform>apple2</platform>
    <theme>apple2</theme>
    <emulators/>
  </system>
  <system>

Extensions should be .nib .NIB .do .DO .po .PO .dsk .DSK

@Substring sorry, i'm on vacations and can't confirm right now, i think audio is set to auto, and the speakers are plugged via jack to the raspberry pi 3. Sound works great til the update. I will return home next week and run more tests.

[Substring]

@Dwarf I should be able to diagnose with just your ~/logs/recalbox.log

[eclipse16g]

@Substring here's my support archive https://file.ac/j9h8zEDrqdY/

[Dwarf]

@Substring I'm back!
If I change sound options fron auto to jack, sound start working again, but on next reboot sound is lost again...
Here is my recalbox.log:

Thanx for the help!

[Substring]

@Dwarf well, i git quite f***** up this weekend at HFS3 on my pi using jack audio. So i can sadly reproduce the bug. Will try to sort it out asap

@Substring Hi, been away from the internet for a bit.
I had figured that out to be honest. Well, I just added in support for .dsk to see if that fixed it and that was good enough for the files I had, but thanks anyway!

Regarding the latest unstable update, I followed the link and Ive had a look at what I THINK is the changelog, but the top entry doesnt have a date - it just has "## [Unrelease][unreleased]", and it also mentions :
Added support for vice 2.4.24. This means support for commodore c64 and other commodore systems

• Added theme for commodore c64
• Added two demo ROMs for commodore c64"

But, Ive just updated to it and I see no c64 folder in the roms folder.
The next update date after "## [Unrelease][unreleased]" is "[4.0.0-beta5] - 2016-08-13", so can anyone confirm where / what IS the update log for the April 27th unstable update, and if c64 support is back?

Many thanks.

[azvarel]

@RustyMG C64 is not yet in this unstable version (27/04), the other day I was talking to IRC with @Substring about it and it is still on top of development, if I am not mistaken it is their highest priority.

I use a fresh install with 4.1.0-master-rpi3-2017-04-11 but psx doesn't work.

When i put the games (.bin) in the psx directory there is nothing in es.
When i make self a gamelist.xml there is showing nothing in es.

How can i get work psx that is showing my games?

Tested and works:
NES
SNES
N64
Mega Drive
PSP

[Substring]

@Piti this looks like a support problem, not a 4.1 bug.

[Piti]

I come from gamestarter plugin but do a fresh install of all.
On gamestarter there no problems with my games.

On my Pi 2 with recalbox 4.0.2 all psx works fine

edit:
OK now its work.
I have to make my bin to pbp with PSX2PSP and now the games listen and i can play.

[Substring]

@Piti you need a cue file with bin !

[Piti]

@Substring
Ahh ok, that is the case, i have only the bin in the directory.
But now i convert the games to pbp and i safe a little space.

In 4.1.0-master-rpi3-2017-04-27-11-56-31-15156468 seems that the parameter o2em.configfile=/absolutepathtofile/my_o2emconfig.cfg does not work and retroarch don't load my own retroarch custom config for maganvox odyssey, retroarchcustom.cfg loads instead.
