I can confirm i had no issue using a Sandisk 1.5TB sd card with latest retropie on CM5. I unzip the file then use sytem32imager to write the file.

Has anyone managed to get PSP games showing on the ES carousel or are you playing PSP games by going into RetroArch?
I can’t seem to get them showing in ES. Tried all supported file types and no joy.

If it’s not already there you might need to add the system in /etc/emulationstation/es_systems.cfg
It should look something like this.

  <system>
    <name>psp</name>
    <fullname>Playstation Portable</fullname>
    <path>~/RetroPie/roms/psp</path>
    <extension>.iso .ISO .cso .CSO</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ ppsspp %ROM%</command>
    <platform>psp</platform>
    <theme>psp</theme>
  </system>

The extension and command sections I’m not 100% on and I’d check it first.

Almost there. It was indeed missing.
Edited the config and now showing.
Games won’t play yet.
Just need to fix that command line as it’s not quite right.
Will have another edit and let you know. :+1:t2:

I was just guessing going off the psx one. You might want to double check it is installed in retropie. ppsspp-lr is the one I’ve used before. if it is you just need to find the right command.

Got it!
All working now. :+1:t2:

Had to do this:

<system>
<name>psp</name>
<fullname>PlayStation Portable</fullname>
<path>~/RetroPie/roms/psp</path>
<extension>.iso .ISO. cso .CSO .pbp . PBP</extension>
<command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ psp %ROM%</command>
<platform>psp</platform>
<theme>psp</theme>
</system>

Thanks Rex. :+1:t2:

Cool, I just added it to the config so the next retropie build I do it’ll already be there.

Rex, amazing work on the retropie image. Thanks for all that you do.

I have been beating my head against the wall trying to map the L and R mouse buttons to the left and right shoulder buttons. Mainly for GBA/SNES.

I tried doing it via the retroarch settings; I can map everything just fine but it will not save my changes. I’ll hit save and back out of the settings, then go back in and they are back to default. Any idea on why that is happening? I SSHd in, and it’s not saving changes to the retroarch config file. I can manually change the config via SSH but I can’t figure out what the correct syntax is to call the mouse buttons.

I also tried rebinding via the emulation station input config, but I just can’t figure out the right syntax to bind the mouse buttons.

I’ll look into adding the L/R buttons and post what you need to add.

I’ve been using a usb flash drive to store my games when using Retropie, is it possible to store them on the same SD card ? Sorry old person asking :zany_face:

176

Yes the roms can be stored on the SD card. The roms go in home/USER/RetroPie/roms

Would I be right in saying they don’t run quite as well from a flash drive and would be better on the SD?

Suppose it depends on what games and emulator you’re running. Always had mine on the SD so far. Had no issues yet.

178

Both the SD and USB run at USB2 speeds, So at most you’ll get marginal improvements.

Sorry for such a basic question, but with this distro does it basically only boot and function under RetroPie? Or does it boot to the OS the way the Bookworm does but with just RetroPie preinstalled?

(Does this basically turn it into a RetroPie only device?)

Turns it into a RetroPie only device. I keep a 128gb SD with a ton on roms on it to pop in for my kids and not take up any space or have them on my work SD.
