On newer Androids, Pegasus can still read files under <storage>/pegasus-frontend/
, but might only be able to save the log file at a writable location that Android provides for the apps. I think this should be either at <storage>/Android/data/org.pegasus_frontend.android/
, or under /data/user/0/org.pegasus_frontend.android/
somewhere. (The logcat output is only used for debug builds.)
Thanks! Found it at <storage>/Android/data/org.pegasus_frontend.android/files/pegasus-frontend/lastrun.log
.
I would suggest a minor update to the Issue template to list that as an alternative location for Android.
(and I've confirmed debug Android builds go to logcat, which is useful. Thanks!)
The issue
I'm unable to find where any debug file or logcat logging happens on Android.
This ticket template mentions it should be in
<storage>/pegasus-frontend/lastrun.log
, but I don't see the log file there (just mygame_dirs.txt
andthemes/
that load OK). Pegasus has Accessible Android directories... permission to that folder.I don't see any logging happening to logcat either, though a cursory review of the sourcecode mentions Android logcat. Should it be going there?
(Why I care: I'm trying to understand why loading gamelist and media on my RG405M takes 30+ seconds while the RP3+ only takes ~10 seconds. These two devices have the same chipset and exact same files on the SD card. I was hoping the pegasus log would give some insight).
