@lhari84 said in [Recalbox 6.1][Complete][Snap Videos] Next Pixel theme:

I'm asking because it took me a long, long time (almost got insane ) to modify and correct everthing to what I'd call perfection (correct titles, release dates, genres, descriptions, pictures...) Screensraper data is good, but many things are incomplete, in a bad format or wrong so far, though.
So I don't want to re-scrape everything and correct it again, but just ONLY ADD the preview-videos to existing meta-data...

My heart hurts when I read comments like that. Why on earth would anyone correct things locally and not in the ScreenScraper database, so EVERYONE can profit from all the needed improvements. The database is cummunity driven and too many people have spent countless hours just so someone like you can just scrape and everything is (almost) perfect for you. If you would have corrected all upstream, it is just a matter of rescraping, as many times as you want, and you would get always better results.

ONLY FOR RPI0/1 VERSIONS OF RECALBOX
As I don’t own a rpi0/1 myself, I need you, dear community, to test this compiled version of the fba_libretro emulator fbalpha on your boards. It should be on par with pifba (fba system emulator) regarding performance, so users of the lower end boards can use a newer romset and all libretro ports benefits.

Here is the binary for testing performance differences between fba and fba_libretro:

http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=01516935153730933111

(Re-)place the file inside usr/lib/libretro

And set the appropriate permissions on the file:
chmod u+x fbalpha_libretro.so

Don't forget to make the partition rw before trying to copy it over:
mount -o remount,rw /

To be able to test the optimization, you’ll need to activate the Cyclone option in retroarch’s menu.
It might also be useful to set frameskip to 1.

Don’t forget fba uses the 0.2.96.71 romset and fba_libretro the 0.2.97.44 romset.

Please compare the same game, from their respective romset version of course, and report if performance is similar between both.

Thanks everyone!

@miretrobox por que te ayudariamos a que sigas vendiendo ilegalmente nuestro sistema operativo infringiendo la licencia?
Recalbox es totalmente gratuito y esta prohibido venderlo preinstalado en cualquier dispositivo o utilizarlo como gancho para vender algo.
Eso no es ser un emprendedor, es aprovecha**e del trabajo de miles de personas, faltarnos el respeto y perjudicar el desarrollo del codigo abierto.

@bernie-ran I didn’t try to patronise anyone and I certainly didn’t want to start a discussion. But I’ll tell you something... no one on the team has english as his native tongue, so you can’t expect every formulation to be perfect. It is more than understandable though, and if someone takes the time to write something (on the first post, which anyone should read, always), the least I can expect is for someone else that tries to use the stuff there is to read it.
And yes, this is the place for anything related to the beta.
Have a good one.

@Bug first of all, do not be a coward and try to justify what you did. You didn't only removed everything you wrote (including the scripts and wiki page), but also practically erased your register from the forum. That means, you were hidding. Your intentions...? After our last private talk, I suspect you want do build cabinets for sell and have that script as a bait for your "customers".
Secondly, if you have no idea what open source is about, you can google it! You made that code public, willingly, for free (not that I would pay for it). Anyone is allowed to use it as they want according to the way you chose.
We are not discussing about if your code is garbage or not, someone just found a way to revert the mess up you built.
I might add that I took the time to review your code and asked other real programmers to do the same. And you paid us back erasing everything! Without any comment, and deleting your account! From the depths of my guts and as we say in Spanish: "Que hijo de puta!"

@lordxamon using picodrive, I asume?
That is the emulator to blame... but it was already corrected upstream. Just wait for the next release.

There was a project on a german university last summer and the students programmed games for the Vectrex. Everything has been uploaded (manuals, overlays and the most important, the binary files = roms!) and are free to download. I haven't had time to test any games yet though.

I'd like to point out that, apparently, the NES30 Pro and this controller have the exact same device name (bluetooth wireless controller with three spaces at the end).
But the NES30 Pro starting at version 1.72 beta 0 (newest at the moment) finally changed its name to, I believe, Nes30 Pro Controller (or similar). So if anyone happens to have both, it is just a matter of upgrading the firmware.

@fedor great first message! And as your information is, from the users experiences, not true, I recommend you to do some research before posting again.

A friend brought yesterday his ps4 controller and I was able to pair it with recalbox 4.1 by doing the following.

1. I pressed the PS button to start it and while blinking I pressed the little button behind the ps4 controller to reset its paired devices.

2. I turned on the pairing mode of the controller by pressing PS+SHARE buttons simultaneously, until a very fast blinking is noticed.

3. On recalbox I looked up for controllers to pair and "Wireless Controller" came up, chose pair and the controller worked out of the box without further configuration. The PS button is the hotkey by default by the way.

@Zaphod through the web, hi_res textures won't be manageable in the short term, but the folders will be created automatically on the next version.

There are plans to implement a switch in ES to integrate alternative regional themes for us and jp, but as some people have asked me for this, here are the links to directly download them as a separate theme in the meanwhile. The folder names remain the same as currently, only the graphics are changing.
Find the instructions on how to add them to your recalbox here.
Download the recalbox-us theme here.
Download the recalbox-jp theme here.

@zyphos there are a bunch of better and easier to use software for scrapping than the ES Scraper. IMO, the ES Scraper should be used as a last ressource. Take a look here:

https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Scrapers-(EN)

I’d recommend Skraper at this moment.
You can easily scrape over the network with skraper, uxs and fastscraper (sselph’s scraper script) without the need of all the stuff you did.

@jackalpret I suppose that command works only on rpis. You might wanna create a github issue about it so we try to find another toold for x86s (and probably odroids).
