Right now WebMenu does not support .mra
files, only .rbf
as you mention, but .mra
it is the next thing on the roadmap. I expect it to be ready by next week.
I REALLY like the "jukebox" idea! Thank you!
I am opening a couple of issues to improving tracking, one for the .mra
support and other for the "jukebox" feature.
I am closing this issue. You can keep track of both feature requests in #6 and #7.
Thank you very much!
Hi @pividivi ,
I've implemented MRA support in https://github.com/nilp0inter/MiSTer_WebMenu/releases/tag/v0.4.0rc2
I am probably not releasing a stable release until Monday in the mean time it would be very helpful if you can give it a try.
Hi Roberto,
I tried the v0.4 version. There is progress! I notice the following things:
[image: image.png] As far as I know this is the standard structure when using the updater script and the default Retrodriven update script. With the new version of the WebMenu I seem to be missing all the cores in the _Jotego, _Sega System 1, _Unofficial and _Alternatives folders. They are not visible in the WebMenu after a (re)scan. It would be nice to scan and see them as sub-folders under Arcade in the Webmenu. Or prefix the core's name with the dir name/. Or only see the _Unofficial and _Alternatives folders as sub-folders, while the _Jotego & _Sega System 1 folders are mixed in with the rest in the default ARCADE view (the "root" view).
While most cores from the "root" folder are visible, some are not showing up. For instance Woodpecker.mra (I cán launch it successfully from the MiSTer menu)
I see 3 Arkanoid mra's in the webmenu that have identical names, But in the Mistermenu and on the sd card they have different names, so they can be differentiated easier: [image: image.png]
v.s.

Almost every mra "block" tells me that the rom is missing. However, the roms are there AND the mra/core works when launched from the WebMenu:
[image: image.png] For instance, the above core shows Missing, but it works correctly when I launch it. The only cores that show "ROMs: Found" are: Pong, Computer Space, Pacmanic Miner and Mr. Do Nightmare
Hopefully my findings will help!
regards, Pieter

Hi @pividivi ,
It looks like you responded via email. Unfortunately I think Github does not support adding images to email responses, so I don't see them and seems pretty important.
Could you please respond through the Github UI so that the message is well formatted. Also could you do that on issue #6 instead on this one?
Thank you for your time!
I am giving feedback about: WebMenu
My opinion is: Great idea. Good start!
I believe that because: I like to be able to remote control what the mister is running. This way I can sort of make it a "jukebox" to run some demo's or attract modes from arcade cores, without requiring to grab a controller or dig up the keyboard.
But: The Arcade part of the webmenu does not seem to correspond with the menu structure on the mister menu. I suspect the webmenu only scans for the arcade .rbf's? I think it actually should be scanning and parsing the .mra files. Because in it's current state, you can launch an arcade core, but most of them do not run correctly; the core is there (loaded, F12 gives you the core menu) but I think the needed rom is not loaded because I only see a black screen outside of the menu.
