RetroPie for OPi from Stevie Whyte

alerino

try to copy script.bin from your working Armbian 5.14 and setting your TV to 720p not 1080p, i don't know if it would change anything. Do you use direct HDMI cable, no? Not an adapter?

Fleder

Version 5.14 Beta 2 (armbian 5.14)

EDIT: 23/06/2016 Beta2 hotfix and img released (see below)
Hi guys, Alerino Reis and I have been working very hard these past few weeks on a new retropie for orangepi (RetrOrangePi). We now feel its time to release for testing.
It is now based on armbian 5.14 so we can take advantage of the faster gpu clock speed. It features the full armbian desktop which can be launched from Emulationstation.
ES and retroarch in framebuffer. Kodi in X11
Now that we are using a well maintained kernel we will be releasing future updates as simple scripts instead of full images.
Kodi has been updated to 17 Krypton (controller support added via qjoypad) mpv player is still external player for now.
Ps3 Bluetooth controllers, snes usb and xbox 360 controllers are supported out the box.
This has been tested on opi one and opi pc. other boards may work as well.
As this is a pretty huge leap, expect some minor or major bugs.

Thank you for the new Beta Fleder! Now changing the script.bin is much more easier than before.

I have still an error, but another one. After resizing the system reboots and gets the error ALSA lib pcm.c:7843snd_pcm_recover) underrun occurred.

I cannot install this fix, because my system crashes while booting with this error (display starts blinking showing ALSA lib pcm.c:7843snd_pcm_recover)

alerino

Download Beta 1 , replace correct script.bin making sure your board is compatible, then apply Hotfix 1 and 2,

Hey Guys,

I'm trying the new 2.0 Version, but again I get stuck after booting. After deleting /home/pi/.emulationstation I get following error:


Thank you for your help.

alerino

That is not an error. Maybe you would still have to change /boot/script.bin link to correct board config, like /boot/bin/orangepipc.bin, for example.

Turmeric

Hi Guys,

I don't want to annoy you, but I still have exactly the same error with your new 5.17 version for Opi plus. After first boot and resizing I get the message: "Using old config directory. please migrate your files to "/home/pi/.config/emulationstation" and delete the .emulationstation folder." If I do so, on next boot it shows several lv0 errors and after second reboot it recreates the .emulationstation folder.

Thank you for your help!

alerino

Sorry, this is caused by our version of EmulationStation (with new splash).  It does not affect well functioning of system or gaming in any way. You actually don't need to delete folder, just ignore the messages.
