Re: MiSTer Extensions - Remote

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. Have you tried without the port number? Just 192.168.0.185 by itself

Re: MiSTer Extensions

NFC Ok, I ended up taking a chance after all because I was excited about this, and I managed to get a reader that works! I have a question about using the .csv file: Will having many entries add a noticeable delay to launching games (vs writing the commands directly to NFC)? I'm assuming it needs to load and parse the list each time? I'm trying to...

Re: MiSTer Extensions

NFC is a service which lets you use cheap consumer grade USB NFC scanners to launch cores, game and custom commands. I'm really interested in jumping into the NFC stuff, I've checked Amazon and Ali Express and it seems there are tons of different vendors selling the ACR122U reader with wildly different prices. Is any ACR122U as good as another? ca...

Re: Problem with NFC

Just to be clear, the script does not require escaping or quotes. Just put the path in as you naturally would

I spoke privately about the original issue, it's a problem of the rbf files not being in their standard location. I am working on a fix but don't have a date for it yet

Great work with the NFC script!
Is there a way to send a command to switch ini file via NFC?
It would be great to be able to switch ini with a card if I switch TV.

Sure! Cool idea. I'll include a custom command to do that

Re: MiSTer Extensions

Hi forum friends. Since I made this post I've mostly been working on Remote in the other thread. But I also released these goodies lately: LastPlayed is a service which dynamically created shortcuts in the MiSTer menu. Right now it can create a "last game played" shortcut which will always point to the last game launched, and a "rece...

Re: MiSTer Extensions - Remote

I'm using an nfc solution for MiSTer but it's pretty convoluted since I'm using a third party app on my phone, that connects to a remote server, that then SSHs to MiSTer and launches the game. Having it on this easy to use app would be a game changer besides being much faster! I'll be testing it right away Just to be clear, the current thing I'm a...

Re: MiSTer Extensions - Remote

The weird thing is sometimes the indexing takes a min or two, and other times it just flies through super fast. It often gets stuck on a Console for a min or two as well. Then it will suddenly finish. Can you do one more time please, that narrowed it down a bit: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/qf5uvzezjwc2ur8cxjjnw/remote-0.2.3alpha2.zip?rlkey=7zld...

Yeah. I set it up long ago, more or less when cifs support came out, so I'm not sure if there was a standard back then, but I can change it anyway. I'm currently using /media/fat/games/_CIFS so that it appears at the top of the list when I move back one level from the default system folder. Also, in my NAS I don't use the default MiSTer naming con...

Re: MiSTer Extensions - Remote

I guess I'm just not understanding. The DE10-nano should have a unique MAC address since it uses a physical Ethernet port. All my MiSTers are hardwired in but when I try to look up the the vendor for the MAC address I can't find anything so that tells me that they're all spoofed. All 3 of these MiSTers have queue MAC address Didn't make sense to m...

This is a great addition and very useful. I do have a question though that I noticed looking through the menu. How is it possible that all MiSTers have the same MAC address?
