Could you please link ? Do you mean WIKI section ?

Ok i tried a lot of settings and i can say that either i have a defective VGA GERT 666 or Recalbox has some issues with hdmi timings per emulator.

I tried a lot of configs and when i start the game, it comes back to Emulation Station. If i'm able to switch hdmi timings often happens that it doesn't come back to the previous one resolution, after exit from the game.

I can give help if they are real issues, but i need that people with gert 666 try do the same.

I tried this on BVM 20F1E but maybe is too "perfect" and does not accomodate particular hdmi timings, i tried on Sony Trinitron KV-14LT1E with a VGA to SCART cable, same result.

With BVM i had VGA cable to -> EXTRON 192V -> 4 BNC cableds (composite sync and also tried sync on green).

I tried to put HDMI TIMINGS proposed in the various tutorials present on the web, but it seems that they're not working.
Someone of them works so i think that recalbox is able to handle auto switch, sometimes the resolution doesn't come back to the previous one when exits to Emulation Station.

Maybe is a problem related to my system, but i use latest version of Recalbox with VGA GERT 666 and this method you suggest to overwrite hdmi timings.

It would be nice that some users reading this thread , could try to use the same settings proposed in the link you provided, in order to undestand if they work or not.

I bought VGA GERT in order to reach "pixel perfect" with AdvanceMame, i thought that this was possible also with other systems.

I tried to use customised hdmi_timings but with no luck (recalbox exit to emulation station)

Do you know the exact syntax about snes.videomode= ?

hdmi_timings=450 with or without "=" ?

I read about "latest firmware" in order to switch resolution on the fly , is it something that i have to do on my raspberry or the latest build of recalbox has all that i need inside ?

thanks your help is appreciated.

Ok i've seen that there is a dedicate line for emulation station timing. So i can put a general 320x240p in config.txt and one for ES.
Then i will add nes genesis and snes timing in order to see the output results!

If i force NTSC hdmi timings on Snes , i will be forced to play with Usa games right?

Hello,
following tutorials on the web i bought VGA GERT 666, that i connected to a Sony BVM 20F1E.
Anyone here is using Recalbox with VGA GERT in 240p ?

There is the HDMI TIMINGS to put in the config.txt , it's the general timing in order to see Emulation Station on the screen, but is there a way to customize for every system its own HDMI TIMING ?

Suggested default HDMI TIMINGS for Emulationstation is
hdmi_timings=450 1 50 30 90 270 1 1 1 30 0 0 0 50 0 9600000 1 (last best v centering)

Then i see a lot of different hdmi timings for every system (https://github.com/mortaca/RGB-Pi/blob/master/HDMI_Timings.txt) , is it supported to switch this on the fly ?

Thanks

I solved used Sixasis Pairing tool from Windows, i forced my "problematic" Shanwan to connect to Raspberry BT address.
Now i have the problem that all 2 shanwan copies are detected as "Playstation 3 original" , but i selected Shanwan drivers from configuration and i read that supports "original and shanwan" , so at the moment i cannot see any issue with this.

Recalbox is free and support is not expected to be given quickly, i just ask if somebody can shed light about where BT pairing informations are stored, why Shanwan copies are detected as Ps3 original and so on.

In the FAQ, in the tutorial we can add Sixasis Pairing tool way for problematic controller, i can give my availability to improve the community experience.

I also had other issues with Ps3 ORIGINAL pad (that now i use only with Android phone), this device often pressed buttons, never really pressed! Led often stay OFF, but pad was working (with ghost pressing issue).
I thought was a problem with pad, but with Android works like a charm, maybe if reoccurs with Shanwan units i should open another thread.

Ok, in understood why. Second Shanwan controller is broken and BT seems not working

I don't want to bother, but is it possible to know where is stored the file of "input settings" ?
I delete es_input.cfg with no luck.

Would it possible to delete user "cybermat" in awaiting confirmation, due to wrong mail ?

thanks

Hello,
i configured an original Ps3 Pad and now a Shanwan copy. I would like to delete all input configurations, in order to pair 2 Shanwan copies. I cannot add the third one at the moment.

What i did :

• Used "forget bluetooth controller" ---> not working
• Delete the last 2 entries here \recalbox\share\system.emulationstation\es_input.cfg and rebooted Recalbox (i tried also to stop emulationstation process)

Anytime i reboot Recalbox i have original ps3 pad and Shanwan copy properly configured to 1 and 2nd player!

Please help me.
Many thanks
