Hi i'm using recalbox 7.0.1 and like older versions i can't save the settings, i set save on exit but if i reboot the game i come back to the original setting.
someone can help me?
thanks

@paradadf i'm using Recalbox with a Raspbery Pi Zero W with a waveshare 3.2" LCD SPI into a Gamboy Advance SP Case.
With the SPI screen if you start Kodi, Kodi change the resolution that makes FBCP crash, if i stop FBCP first that kodi starts changing resolution and after I restart FBCP, all works good, my question is: is it possible add this method into Recalbox when Kodi start on SPI displays?
sorry for my english

Thanks

@acris i tried but i have always the same problem

Hi I have this modded GBA SP with Raspberry Zero and SPI screen Waveshare 3.2 320x240 LCD (C)

when i use GBA roms the games are very slow
i put here my config.txt if someone can help me

Hi
how can i change the retroarch resolution for a 320x240 display?
thanks

I solved using the "dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio" in the config.txt it emulates the keyboard, so you don't need enable the "controllers.gpio.enabled=1" in recalbox.conf

if someone need to know how use it:

#add this to config.txt
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=21,keycode=108,label="KEY_DOWN"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=12,keycode=103,label="KEY_UP"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=6,keycode=105,label="KEY_LEFT"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=14,keycode=106,label="KEY_RIGHT"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=16,keycode=28,label="KEY_ENTER"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=15,keycode=14,label="KEY_BACKSPACE"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=26,keycode=30,label="KEY_A"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=19,keycode=48,label="KEY_B"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=5,keycode=19,label="KEY_R"
dtoverlay=gpio-key,gpio=4,keycode=38,label="KEY_L"

@paradadf said in screen crash with 6.1:

@nicola-silveri hi and yes, it is a bug that will be fixed in the next (soon to be released) bug-fix release.

Thanks for reply

I understand why fbcp doesn't work.
if i have controllers.gpio.enabled=0 it works good
when i enabled it (controllers.gpio.enabled=1) and changed the used pins fbcp doesn't works.
I change the pin used for button in recalbox.conf with
...........................................
controllers.gpio.enabled=1
...........................................
controllers.gpio.args=map=5 gpio=21,12,6,14,16,15,26,19,5,-1,-1,4,-1
..........................................

i try to run DMESG and i see that the configuration doesn't changed with my personal pin, it still use the default config

Is it a bug?

i installed the new 6.1 version and after it start the boot animation it crashs like you can see in photo.
Any solution?
it has 3.2 SPI screen (Waveshare 32C, i put its driver in overlays like in old 6.0) and it worked good with 6.0 version

@chriskt78 so i must flash 6.1 beta for fix it?

)

i have 320x240 spi display and i see this virtual keyboard, is it a bug or can i do something to fix it?

Hi,
how can i change the pin for buttons with mk_arcade? i have only up, b, start and select working.i have this hardware configuration:
|BUTT:GPIO_PIN|
|up : 18| OK
|down : 12|
|left : 7|
|right : 8|
|LT : 16|
|LR : 1|
|A : 20|
|B : 25| OK
|start : 24| OK
|Select : 23| OK

GBA SP i replaced original display with a RCA Monitor 3,5'', i have connected the buttons on original motherbord to the GPIO of RPi Zero W. It works with RetroPie but i don't have video output with Recalbox.
