    • RE: No sound on splash screen and GPIO doubt

      @zing You´re a genious!! I edit (previous backup) the es_input.cfg in \SHARE\system.emulationstation folder, change the default value of A for B value and also changed the Hotkey value for the default one, rebooted and voilá!! I have now set my buttons like i have in my old recalbox 4.0 and all of them work perfectly.

      This is the config that worked for me, in case someone has the same issue:

      <inputConfig type="joystick" deviceName="GPIO Controller 1" deviceGUID="15000000010000000100000000010000" deviceNbAxes="2" deviceNbHats="0" deviceNbButtons="9">

      		<input name="start" type="button" id="7" value="1" code="315" />
      	</inputConfig>
      

      Thank you so much for your patience, your time and your kind help. Hope that in next release the splash screen sound will be fixes.

    • RE: No sound on splash screen and GPIO doubt

      @zing thanks for your reply. Doing the soft reset done the trick and joystick and buttons went back to default. The odd thing is that when i do the reset ALL buttons work like they should. Hotkey and start buttons works without any issues, but when i try to map them manually, these two buttons are recognize like the same button and the system doesn't show the "already in use" warning. I don't think there is a connection problem because like i said, when i do the reset, all buttons works great.
      If you have any ideas that i can try, i would be much appreciated.
      Thanks in advance.

    • RE: No sound on splash screen and GPIO doubt

      @zing another question... once i tried to configure the buttons in the ES menu, i can´t go back to defaults. How can i do that? Is there a file to erase or something to get the buttons work again like out of the box?
      Also, i tried to configure the recalbox.conf file to set the map=1 buttons +Y, A, B, START, etc, but it didn´t change anything. Is like that config doesn´t work at all.
      Thanks

    • RE: No sound on splash screen and GPIO doubt

      Thanks Zing for the update, hope that in the next release the sound on splash will be fixed.
      I´m still struggling to make the buttons work like i had on recalbox 4.0. By default, when i do a fresh install of recalbox 7.2.1 and activate GPIO, the buttons are like this and ALL the buttons work:
      GPIO1.jpg

      On my other SD card i have the old installation of recalbox 4.0 but it won´t boot (freezes at startup right after the splash screen). There in recalbox 4.0 i had this button configuration:
      GPIO2.jpg

      The issue i´m having is that when i configure the buttons in the ES menu, the START and HOTKEY buttons are the same (recognize as button 7 in both of them) and therefore i can´t play any game because i can´t press the START button once the game is loaded. When i do that, the game quits and go back to ES main menu. That was the default function of HOTKEY, to quit the game and go back to the main menu but now the START button do the same thing as the HOTKEY button.

      I guess that a script, drivers or something was installed in the 4.0 SD installation but i don´t know have to know that. I bought this console all set up and ready to go a few years ago, but recently the old SD won´t boot anymore, so i got a new SD card and installed 7.2.1 on my own.

      Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for the help and keep the good work. Recalbox is awesome!

    • No sound on splash screen and GPIO doubt

      Hi, yesterday i installed a fresh 7.2.1 reloaded img in an SD card for my Raspberry Pi 3. I previously had 4.1. I did backup of roms, saves and bios folders and i also the recalboxintro.mp4 file in /recalbox/system/resources/splash
      On the firsts boots, the sound of the splash screen videos (random videos) played well (video and sound connected thru HDMI). Then, i copied the recalboxintro.mp4 file from my backup to the same folder of the new 7.2.1 installation (doing mount -o etc command) in order to delete all vids and only have recalboxintro.mp4 file so the same vid is played every time. I only erase the videos in the folder.
      From that point on, when i turn on recalbox, the recalboxintro.mp4 shows well but with NO sound, i checked the file and it has sound. I also play it from command line with:
      omxplayer /recalbox/system/resources/splash/recalboxintro.mp4 and the video plays WITH sound. I tried also:
      omxplayer --adev alsa:hw:0,0 /recalbox/system/resources/splash/recalboxintro.mp4 --> WITH SOUND
      omxplayer --adev alsa:hw:1,0 /recalbox/system/resources/splash/recalboxintro.mp4 --> NO SOUND
      After the splash screen, the recalbox menu always loads WITH sound, so no issue there.

      Anyway, i also tried formatting the SD, loading the 7.2.1 reloaded img again without changing a single file, but i have NO sound in the splash screen (random videos). Tried multiple TVs with HDMI.
      What i can do to get the splash screen sound back?

      I also have another issue. I have a wood case with 2 joysticks, 6 buttons for each player and 2 extra buttons, one is for "insert coin" and the other for "menu/quit game and back to main menu". I bought this case already set up, so i didn´t make the GPIO connections on my own (but it´s working for more than 3 years).
      The issue i´m having is that in my 4.1 previous installation, buttons A and B where the other way round than in 7.2.1 install (default). So, i need to know whats the default config of the buttons order or else, how can i map the buttons in the order that where before in 4.1 installation? I´ve tried to configure them in recalbox but no luck.
      Is there a file where the config of the buttons is store?

      Thanks in advance.
