I am trying to make retroarch work in RPi4... here is the latest addon beta:

https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Gamestarter/raw/master/repository.gamestarter/game.retroarch/game.retroarch-9.178.15-4.zip

This addon beta must work in Rpi 2, 3 and 4 (also Generic devices) running LibreELEC 9.2 beta but I didn't test it by myself yet...

Testing is needed ( or ... RPi4 needed XD ) !!!

feedback is welcome!

Hi bite, Thanks for your amazing work =) I will test it today (if possible) and let you know the results.

RetroPie launches and basic interface works with LibreELEC Leia on an RPi4 with the provided zip. Previously, it was crashing on launch. I was also able to update assets with the online updater. I have not yet tested any ROMs.

GuilleDF commented 4 years ago

I can confirm it launches on my RPi4 with LibreELEC 9.1.501 (kodi 18.4). I've also tested super mario world with the snes9x core and it runs, ~albeit very slowly (but that might be fixed by tuning the RetroArch config)~ (I changed the resolution from 4k to 1080p and now it's super smooth). If there's anything specific you'd like to test on a RPi4, just ask, I can be your beta tester :smiley:

@bite-your-idols thank you for your good job! the retroarch starts normally but with some nuances.

the emulation station (from repository, not some beta) closes unexpectedly with

emulationstation_debug.log

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what():  locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
Aborted

is this libreelec's issue or emulationstation's?

or should i repost this question as a new thread?

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

@k0st1x some LibreELEC forum users say the following:

I can confirm that after installing the locale addon and changing it to en_US.UTF-8 on the addon's settings, emulationstation now runs normally.

As you can read aver here: https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/287-gamestarter-retrogaming-add-ons-rpi-generic/?postID=129049#post129049

take a look and post your feedback

maybe, this should be in a new issue because is not just related with RPi4

@ezar device and LE version?

ezar commented 4 years ago

Raspberry 3b+ and LE9.8 Using beta3 works fine :)

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

LE 9.8? so, are you running mildhouse testbuilds?

ezar commented 4 years ago

Yes!

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

Sorry, no 9.8 testbuild support yet, first we need official 9.2 release.

MikailCZ commented 4 years ago

Is there any way to run this in Kodi on Raspbian? I've tried it but I only get black screen when launching RetroArch.

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

Just for LibreELEC.

https://github.com/bite-your-idols/Gamestarter/raw/master/repository.gamestarter/game.retroarch/game.retroarch-9.178.15-4.zip is no longer available. Can you please provide the latest compilation?

Thanks a lot

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

you just need to install latest retroarch release, it is working ok in RPi4.

By the way, since RA is working in RPi4 i am going to close this issue.

ezar commented 4 years ago

Sorry, no 9.8 testbuild support yet, first we need official 9.2 release.

try: import urlparse except ImportError: import urllib.parse as urlparse

And fix some identations. Before that works using LE9.8 :)

bite-your-idols commented 4 years ago

please, open a new issue regarding LE9.8 testbuilds

Thank you so much!
