Awesome work, sources of simplemenu ?

[schmurtzm]

Hi,

I would like to thank you for your work on SimpleMenu, it is very different from other Miyoo Mini menus. Would you accept to share your source code ? It could help the community to implement new ideas and help to improve SimpleMenu too.

This menu really deserve to be more famous !

And thanks to for hocoslamfy ! Very fun !

Have you other projects for the Miyoo Mini ?

@schmurtzm My source is shared in the path below. https://github.com/trngaje/simplemenu/tree/kor

My miyoo mini-related modifications are briefly described below. It's all written in Korean, but I think you can get some simple information. https://trngaje.github.io/

I don't have a device right now, so I'm not working on the project anymore. However, if I have any questions, I will answer them as far as I know.

Awesome trngaje ! It's OK with translation, so much information here !
I go to study it ! Thank you for the share :)

Hi @trngaje, it seems that your SimpleMenu gave birth to a new OS called Koriki. That's nice to see that this port will have its own packaged distribution now ;)

I have a similar question to the previous but this time about Advance Mame 😉 . May be Advance MAME deserve a new build on the Miyoo Mini, do you know where I can find the source or the makefile that you have used (I don't find Miyoo Mini info on your Advance MAME repo).

The source in my git (git clone https://github.com/trngaje/advancemame.git) is an improved version for Korean display. The build for miyoo mini can be done as below. (https://trngaje.github.io/miyoomini/miyoomini-advmame/)

git update apt install libasound2-dev:armhf libfreetype6-dev:armhf zlib1g-dev:armhf libexpat1-dev:armhf libslang2-dev:armhf libncurses5-dev:armhf apt install automake

git clone https://github.com/trngaje/advancemame.git
./configure --host=arm-linux-gnueabihf make -j4

[schmurtzm]

Awesome, I'll make a try on this. Thanks so much trngaje ! I've discovered Advance Mame thanks to your build and the performance seems really great !

Hi, small corrections for your blog :

apt update
apt install  libasound2-dev:armhf libfreetype6-dev:armhf zlib1g-dev:armhf libexpat1-dev:armhf libslang2-dev:armhf libncurses5-dev:armhf
apt install automake
git clone https://github.com/trngaje/advancemame.git  
cd advancemame/
sh autogen.sh
./configure --host=arm-linux-gnueabihf
make -j4

Otherwise it compiles very well, thanks for your advice. 😉

~~One question about advancemenu which is included in this repo : this little menu seems great and could be easily hacked to run all kind of things. But were you able to display an image thumbnail inside ? I tried to put some png thumbnails and some mng (animated) in snap folder but nothing is displayed. Any idea ?~~

EDIT : finally got it, thumbnails must be put in altss folder : emulator_altss "advmame" "/mnt/SDCARD/Roms/ARCADE/mng" in advmenu.rc file.

Animations are not working but sounds and png are OK. (may be it requires a dependency for animated mng ?)
EDIT : it's working after modifying ui_clip in advmenu.rc file. : ui_clip multiloopall

[schmurtzm]

I still have a little question 😄 : how have you generated the "advmame.lst" file ? I would like the same in english (I tried to translate it but it break the file)

The advmame.lst file is a file that is generated by the advmame. advmame --listxml and convert xml to lst

and in advmenu.rc, default setting is below emulator "advmame" advmame "advmame"""

In advmenu, the snapshot output related to advmame is affected by the path of advmame.rc by default.
