Pegasus doesn't return from game, with errors #947

Closed sofalzone closed 2 years ago

sofalzone commented 2 years ago

The issue

When I run a game (through Retroarch for example) Pegasus does not return sometimes. The way I shut down Retroarch doesn't seem to matter (ie. quit through Retroarch, Ctrl+Alt+Del, Alt+F4, taskkill through Cmd Prompt). It logs the errors below.

System info

Windows 10 Build 21H2.

Pegasus version

Alpha 15.101 g8425a4f6, 2022-01-21

Pegasus log

Hi, this seems to be the same error message as in #891, so I'll close this in favor of that issue.

On the other hand, I see your log file report about 60 000 errors for your metadata files, I'd be really interested in how those files were created!

sofalzone commented 2 years ago

I'm not that organized. The earlier systems are skraper.net compiled files. The later systems are entered manually. If you pick out some examples, I can see what is going on.

Oh I'm just asking whether it's because a scraper app renamed an XML file to TXT or something like that. If you say they are indeed metadata files, that's fine then. I assume the descriptions might be slightly off?

sofalzone commented 2 years ago

I think most of the errors are looking for assets that don't exist. I've never really looked before though. They are all Metadata files though.

Ok then. As for the original issue, I'm closing this in favor of https://github.com/mmatyas/pegasus-frontend/issues/891.
