@lhari84 said in Safe Shutdown not working - NESPi 4 case:

Completely different question:
Do you think the Pi4 will be ok without a fan, just a (small) heatsink? My case has been delivered without ANY cooling solution, so I put a heatsink on CPU and placed a fan in the case, that was delivered with an older Retroflag Pi3-case in the past. The fan fits well, but the noise drives me crazy...

I have a GeekPi heat sink in both cases mentioned above, and it does a good job: https://thepihut.com/products/raspberry-pi-4-extreme-cooling-heat-sink-fan-kit

It can be connected to either 3V or 5V. I choose 3V. This way it is really silent and still keeps the Pi cool enough (tested e.g. with playing Dreamcast games on the Pi4 in the NESPi 4 case).

@lhari84 I experienced the same error.

As far as I understand the script which is responsible for handling the buttons is not compatible with the python version in Recalbox 8.0. This is a known issue: https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox/-/issues/2067

There are two merge requests that should solve it:

With version 7.2 it worked out of the box, with version 8.0 it only works if I apply the changes from the merge requests. I have tested it on an RPi3 in a NESPi+ case and on an RPi4 in a NESPi4 case.
