Here the results of my tests:

Dreamcast control is now working! 🙂

But i now found another Bug with Libretro Emulators 🙁 (i tested snes, nes and master system with Libretro Cores):
- fast forward does not work (when pressing Hotkey + D-Pad right, then on the screen in the upper right corner just appears the text "Paused.") the game just runs with normal speed.

And other issues, that still exist:
Master System:
- the screen is still not in the centre (it is moved to the right a bit, so that there is a black bar at the left side)

N64
- when pressing Hotkey + B in non Libretro Emulators (when Emulator is set to either AUTO or MUPEN64PLUS) the system crashes/freezes (sometimes i can see the text "Pause" in the middle of the screen for a short time)
- when you change Emulator to Libretro and leave Core at "Auto", the games do not start (you get a black screen and it goes back to ES Menu)

joinski Problem with the corrected libretro emulators, on the master system is a problem of the emulator itself and not of the Batocera.
The other problems will be checking.

joinski The solution to hide this black bar that belongs to the original game, which format is bit strange, it is to force the size. I mean redefining the size respecting that original image format error.
Because of course this black bar is in every games that I have tested.

jdorigao Menu shaders like scanlines or retro dosn't seem to apply on games, Retroarch menu shaders shows nothing on scanlines and "caligari" for retro, but even that one dosn't seems to make any effect on video. Tested last beta on Pi3B

fery65 Hello, I have verified the mastersystem bezel size and it os well configurated. The issue is the games original format.
To see that you can click on hotkey+b and you will figure out that the border window retroarch it is on the edge of the bezel border, it touches each other so it is well configurated....

ok, i understand. It is no big issue anyway 🙂 it is just minor cosmetic/beauty flaw/defect and not so important 🙂

Snap72 I did a workaround in retroarch under the shaders and core config override I used crt-pi and it worked for me.

Hi nadenislamarre,

thanks for those insane operating system, batocera is very nice and outperforms almost any other retro-os. I´m using it on a raspberry pi 3b and an Intel NUC Hades Canyon NUC8I7HVKVA. Both systems run very well with the latest betas. I´ve got a few questions:

1.) Is it maybe possible that u add AMD graphics drivers for the RX Vega M GH? Batocera is running very well with Hades Canyon NUC but it has sometimes graphic glitches.

2). Could you try to implement CEMU for x64 platforms? There are a few tutorials at the www how to run this under linux like these:
https://github.com/leomaurodesenv/cemu-linux
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cemu/
It also looks like that cemu may be ported also directly for other platforms.

3.) Could you try to implement rpcs3 PS3 emulator? It has full linux support.

4.) Could you add more than 1 mame folder to the rom directory? I mean, at the bios folder we have some mame folders for the different rom sets. But at the roms directory we have only the main mame rom set directory. Its difficult for peoples who have more that 1 romset. With that solution, we can easily add more romsets and make "global" settings for each romset.

If you maybe like to implement some of these i could help to test actively.

Thank you and keep up the good work. :-)

I can test X64 beta3 build if you may update that, pal.
I left few blank lines when the translation would be the same as english, or when I wasn't sure about sentence meaning in ES. I'll be improving my translation after test if needed, ok?

@joinski forthe n64, i think it is normal. (not tessted). hotkey+b call the pause emualtor function. hotkey+b and it continues again. it is like for other emulators it pauses, but in this one, you'veno menu.

joinski

nadenislamarre
The problem is: when i press hotkey+b the game pauses, but i can not "un-pause" it, that means: when i press hotkey+b again nothing happens.. the game is still paused and i have to reboot/restart the system completely 🙁

Just got back from some beta 3 testing on the Odroid N2.

I noticed a weird thing regarding colouring. When playing games with deep black backgrounds (most noticeable on older platforms such as NES, SNES, MD and MS) the color is somewhat oss. Turning black into something greyish. If i disable on screen border decorations, this problem disappears on it's own.

Also, when it comes to CD-based games, it seems like certain audio tracks and sound effects are struggling. At first i noticed that background music on Dreamcast felt flat, like certain songs are missing "instruments". Then i noticed that certain sound effects were missing. This was most evident with games like Crazy Taxi and Skies of Arcadia.

At first i thought that this issue was only present on Dreamcast, but then i noticed the same issue when playing Sega CD games. The so recognicable "ring sound" from Sonic CD cuts off when playing in the game.

I don't remember having this particular issue on 5.22 beta 1 or 2. It's really strange.

I have the same issue with all of the retroarch cores, black levels are washed out. All of my dreamcast games now crash on beta 3 as well(no problem with beta 2).
seems like retroarch is now outputting rgb limited instead of full, or YCbC colorspace possibly.

im using the latest beta 3 for x64 , on a 2200g amd apu.

I posted the following in the 5.22 beta 3 thread. I figured that maybe all found bugs regarding the N2, also should be posted in this thread.

RaiderBlack Some Decorations i tested have some crt like transparency effect which turns blacks to grey, i don't know if all are like this but all the ones i tested are (that was crt's at the time after all ), i think is related to your issue, if you change bezel with one with 0% opacity level, or disable, you should resolve.

fery65

RaiderBlack yes This is a realistic light glass effect only if you decide to play games with bezels overlays. It respects the old crt TV which used to turn black to grey.
Indeed, if you want to take it out you only have to desable the decoration default bezel option. You also can put shaders to render black color more accurate too and still using bezels. Using shaders, this effect will give the impression of having desapeared. The grey black color is almost the same than the old cathodic TV effect.
