@Pitch64 said in Probleme sur l'emulation philips cdi:

Toujours le même soucis avec un bios en .zip, cdi ou pas...
Je viens de tenter de le rechercher sur google.fr => "cdimono bios" => premier résultat => pouce vert.
Un bios en .zip n'aura pas de MD5 correspondant dans le même sens que vous le pensez. Je m'explique :
Les signatures MD5 indiquées dans Recalbox ne correspond pas au MD5 du .zip en lui-même mais à une signature MD5 calculé à partir des fichiers À L'INTÉRIEUR du .zip.
Ceci permet de passer outre des signatures MD5 différents générés des .zip compressés différemment (taux de compression différents, etc.).

I checked my bios and i DID find a third .rom file (the needed cdi200.rom and cdi220b.rom, as well as an extra cdi220.rom).
I am updating the Bios and trying again.

Good day all,
When i start a CDi game i will see the overlay and a teal blue screen for several moments until i am returned to a default CDi home screen. Although the System scrapper found and decorated the all of the games meta data, all of them seem to have this issue.

1. I found and downloaded the CDi BIOS cdimono1.zip, confirmed within recalbox bios check.
2. I also downloaded several versions of the same CDi game (.CHD, .zip and CUE/Bin formats).

UPDATED GRUB SCRIPT

you will need to know your UUID number prior to updating your grub.
use the command "lsblk -f" to produce a list of your mounted drives as well as their UUID's

search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ####-####
linux /boot/linux root=UUID=####-####label=RECALBOX console=tty3 quiet loglevel=0
initrd /boot/initrd.gz

@poppadum Thanks

@faided
I forgot to add the sda and partition locations
sda =hd0, sdb=hd1 sdc=hd2 etc
partion 1 = 1 partion 2 = 2 etc
so:
set root= (hd0,1)
set gfxpayload=auto
linux /boot/linux label=RECALBOX console=tty3 quiet loglevel=0
initrd /boot/initrd.gz

@fariasjoao_ said in WHERE ARE THE INCLUDED GAMES LOCATED?:

Já tentou atualizar a lista de jogos? todos os arquivos estão com a formatação correta? spode ser isso

hey so this issue isnt formatting. recalbox comes with several games already installed for the NES, COMMADOR, etc all of which can be viewed here "https://wiki.recalbox.com/en/emulators/included-games".
i am asking where those included games are located. they dont seem to be in the share folder. im assuming they are in the recolbox iso in the grub folder?

@Yoda-0 did you ever figure out the issue?
or did you jsut reload?

Second post, where are the included games located? when ad new roms, the included games seem to disappear?
ive been digging around for a while and cant seem to find them?

ANSWER:

1. bot into ubuntu or your flavor of choice

2. update grub to show at boot (NOTE OS PROBER WILL NOT SEE RECALBOX):
   #GRUB_DEFAULT="0"
   GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE="menu"
   GRUB_TIMEOUT="5"
   GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian"
   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
   GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
   GRUB_DISBALE_OS_PROBER="false"

3. download GRUB CUSTOMIZER
   (NOTE THERE IS MORE THAN ONE REPOSITORY AND IT MAY NEED TO BE ADDED TO KEEP CUSTOMIZER UP TO DATE)
   REPOSITORY (1 OF MANY): sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
   APP; use the ubuntu software or manually install using the following command: sudo apt install grub-customizer

4. once completed locate the recalbox boot folder and read its Grub file (should look like this, you only need the command between the brackets {} eveything else is not needed): menuentry "Recalbox" {
   set gfxpayload=auto
   linux /boot/linux label=RECALBOX console=tty3 quiet loglevel=0
   initrd /boot/initrd.gz
   }

5. save and change boot order to show recalbox on top like so:

6. reboot NOTE IF YOU DONT SEE GRUB MENU REVIEW STEP ONE, THE CFG MUST BE TOLD TO DISPLAY OTHERWISE ITS LOOKING FOR A KEY STROKE LIKE "Shift" OR "C".

i hope this helps, i am only twelve so hopefully this makes sense!

one more thing, a LOT of the moderators answers are very "i am better at linux than you, and you should just know better" and that isnt helpful like at all. it comes off as elitist which i thought the french hated elitists... so... heres my contribution to help limit that attitude.

@faided

@faided so i retried Grub 2 and i manually added a new entry using the add entry option. the new entry though points too /vmlinz is not valid

looking to add recalbox to Grub, but google de-prioritized searches like this so im not getting an answer. normally id run OS prober and modify with grub customizer but grub does not see recalbox electron on secondary drive. im making this as a gift and wanted to give the the option to use a desktop or use the awesome built recalbox.
any help would be appreciated.
one more thing, if this is easy lets standardize the solution and make it searchable please.
