Thanks. I'll use this for a closer look at the code. Please, also consider just cloning my git archive, changing the code, and sending a pull request. I'll just review your code changes and accept them then.

Documentation has been updated as well. Let me know if there are implemented features missing from the manual.

Announcements / RetroFE 0.10.31 release
« on: March 27, 2022, 12:51:41 PM »
I've just released RetroFE 0.10.31 to the download section. This release replaces the 0.10.30 release I released yesterday. There are just too many themes out there for me to test these days, and of course there were some that managed to trigger issues in this latest version. Hopefully that's all fixed now.

Edit: Documentation has been updated as well.

Announcements / RetroFE 0.10.30 release
« on: March 26, 2022, 09:33:22 PM »
I've just released RetroFE 0.10.30 to the download section. This release contains the latest memory fixes as well as a core 1.4 directory for those people who want to use gstreamer 1.4 (just rename the core directory to core 1.18 and the core 1.4 directory to core). The default core directory uses a recent gstreamer release (1.18). I will continue to release executables for the latest stable gstreamer release as well as for 1.4 until the video issues with the themes have been resolved.

I hope to update the documentation later this week. Most of the new features are already present, but some of the latest fixes may not yet be in there.

Edit: WARNING: I've replaced the 1.20 gstreamer version with the 1.18 gstreamer version again. 1.20 does not work well together with video walls for some odd reason. The sound is a huge mess.

Some extra coding help would certainly be helpful. It's not the most complex code around, so it should be understandable with a bit of study. After all: I didn't start this project either.

66
So we will have 2 compile options? Our you will release the exe every time? I'm asking it bcs without source I can't debug it on windows.

Compile is up to you of course; I will compile for both gstreamer versions, and include a core directory for both versions.

67
Core theme play the same video about 70 times or so; gstreamer 1.20 doesn't seem to agree with that anymore than 1.4 does. Most other themes I've tried don't seem to have this issue. As such, I'll provide both 1.120 and 1.4 in the near future; that way people can use all the features while making a choice which version of gstreamer fits their needs.

68
It looks like 1.20 is significantly faster than 1.4, so I'll work on creating a release that supports both, and compile for both for the time being. Hopefully this will be resolved in the future.

69
You're welcome. I'll have another look to see if there are actual advantages to using the latest (but apparently less stable) gstreamer releases or if RetroFE should switch back to 1.4.0. For now I can compile for both.

70
Never mind; this appears to be an issue on my Linux distribution, possibly due to the latest SDL libraries there. I'll sort that out at a later time. Let me know if this works better for you.

71
I'm a tad confused. You said it would close at random after launching arcade games, but I don't see you actually launching any games in this log file.
I do see RetroFE exiting normally after about 5 seconds; did you press any of the "Q,Escape,joyButton10" (as configured in controls.conf) buttons to do so? If not, might it be that the wiring is a bit wonky, and might be sending any of these signals to the computer?

CoinOPS does also contain a joy2key setup that might be causing this issue. Try running the RetroFE link instead to see if that's the case.

72
I've already fixed that problem locally, but I'm still looking into a control issue where pressing next/previous game just once (and briefly) will make it scrolls two games ... every time. The only way I can currently go the next game is by pressing next, next, previous, previous in quick succession (it will scroll 3 forward and 2 back...). As soon as I fix that I'll create a new exe for you to test.

73
Nevermind; it's a problem in the current code. I can reproduce the problem under Linux, so I'll have a look as soon as possible to fix this.

74
I'd like a small test setup, so I can reproduce the problem. It helps me to solve the problem.

Can you zip up your test setup, and wetransfer (or something) it to me via PM? I'd like to see what you're seeing so I can analyze the problem.
