@jabba90 you can have a Select+Start combo for entering Retroarch menu for instance.
To do this, go to /recalbox/share/system/.config/retroarch/config and add the following line for each core configuration file:
input_menu_toggle_gamepad_combo = "4"
where "4" is combo Select + Start
This configuration can be changed while running retroach as well.

@zing actually I have created a new theme from scratch. But I kind of found out what the issue was: some background pictures had to be downsized as well as a carrousel background I have created. It's looking good now. Thanks.
It's a b*mmer we cannot use full size pictures for main menu themes 
I followed your guidelines and the issue was gone, however when I try to add up more game system, the graphical glitches appear again on screen.
Interestingly enough is that I still have my Raspberry Pi 3 laying around here and I tested the same theme I'm working on and I don't have these issues 
@scavy thanks, I'm gonna try lowering down the all picture resolutions to 480p.
@zing said in Main Menu graphical glitches:
@clkgames Does this happen only with this theme?
With the default theme, does this also happen?
Could be the resolution of the theme, are you using the 1080p version? Have you tried with the 720p version?
Actually my screen resolution is 1680x1050 pixels (16:10 screen format).
Hello there, I'm working on a theme and I am having graphical issues on Main Screen (and sometimes on Game Selection Screen as well).
Raspberry Pi 4 2GB, recalbox 7.2.1.
Sometimes the background goes completely black, sometimes a piece on top goes missing (as if the image file was corrupt - which is not true because it goes back to normal when I update the games list).
Any idea what could be causing it?

You can also edit recalbox/share/system/recalbox.conf and include de following line at the end of the file:
daphne.configfile=dummy
Tip: you can use this on any core should you need to edit its config file and it keeps getting rewritten by the system's scripts.
Hi there, I am using a generic SNES controler which has no analogue sticks, only digital pads.
On previous versions of recalbox I was able to move the mouse cursor with the dpads. I can't do it on 7.1.1 though.
I had edited the file scummvm.ini at /recalbox/share/system/.config/scummvm and I followed instructions from scummvm website however no matter what I try, the mouse cursos stays stuck at the top left corner of screen and I cannot move the mouse at all, unless I install an USB mouse and move it, but having a mouse is not in plans.
So, is there a way to do it?

Well it seems I had a bad micro SD card. All is good now, thanks and apologies for that.
@lmerckx thank you, I tried deleting all games and copying them back. No deal.
The problem is, no matter what games I choose to run, I get a black screen and get back to game selection screen. I have tried several other games and I don’t understand what is going on...
Hi there It's me again and this time I am having issues with Daphne.
I cannot get any game to run..
Example:
Space Ace
ace.zip inside ROM folder;
folder: ace.daphne, size: 2.32GB ;
command file: ace.commands;
Content of ace.commands:
-bank 0 00000000 -bank 1 00000001
Game won't run.
I had the same rom set running flawlesly on Dragon Blaze 6.1.
is there a known issue with 7.1.1 or is it just happening to me?
Thanks
@Zing thank you so much for your time and help. I've ended up going for a new install again. I cannot say for sure what caused the issue, however after a clean install everything went back to normal.

Hello there guys,
I am having a weird issue, happened all of sudden.
RASPBERRY PI 4, 2GB RAM
I created (actually my 12y old son did) a custom intro video and deleted the original ones.
We had a custom game loading screen as well.
I have edited the file /recalbox/share_init/system/.emulationstation/es_systems.cfg and added FBNEO as an option for Core selection in Mame (because I had some mixed up rom files in Mame folder).
I had it all running really, really well for weeks until yesterday. Now every time I switch on my RPI4, all configurations go back to stock version (Theme, Videos, Loading Screen and the es_systems.cfg file).
Any idea why it was working fine one day and got like this the day after?
What should I do? Go for a clean install?
Regards,
John
I've found a fix, in case someone needs a help with this issue as well.
Load a game, then press Select +B to bring up the Retroarch menu.
From there, press A and go to Configurations > Audio.
Now set the audio volume and mixer volume to -10.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
John.

Hi there guys, I was wondering if someone have come across this issue:
High Pitch Noise throughout gameplay.
My rig:
Recalbox 7.1.1
Raspberry Pi 4 2GB
Affected Emulator: Magnavox / Odyssey2
Just installed games for several systems (for testing purposes only).
This high pitch noise starts to play immediately after the game is loaded. And that particular emulator barely have any options to tinker with.
1st time happened on Atari5200 emulator, then I read about this being a known issue. Tried multiple solutions and quick fixes but no luck.
Regards,
John
Recalbox 7.1.1
Raspberry Pi 2GB
I can confirm the pitch noise plays on all games I've tried. No matter what (limited) options I change, the noise still plays.
@Zing sorry about that example, that line does not reflect how my recalbox.conf looks like, which is :
## Videosnaps
### Delay before videosnaps start, in millisecond. Default: 2s
emulationstation.videosnaps.delay=1000
### Video loop times. 0 = no video. 1 or more = the video loops x times before fading out
emulationstation.videosnaps.loop=100
### Enable videosnap sound/music
emulationstation.videosnaps.sound=1
Again no matter if you set it to 0 or 1, no difference - no sound in either way.
