Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

I figured out a fix to my problem! Line 34: FNAMFOUND=$(find "${1}" -iname "${FNAMSBASE:0:$c}"* -print | grep -i -w "${FNAMSEARCH:0:$c}") Adding "-w" after "grep -i" forces an exact match. For example, I was getting too many matches before for mshvsfu, and it didn't know which one to pick. Adding &q...

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

My display equipments are max 1080p so I can't test any higher resolution, but according to this thread it looks like that the Zero's aren't capable of doing a higher resolution like 2k and 4k. Thanks for the info! I also tried 25hz because it worked to force 4k for pi3b+ and then tried quartering the display to 1280x540 to no avail. I also figure...

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

Can you give me an example on that subfolder organization? I did a simple /media/fat/ Arcade/ A/Ace Attacker (Japan, S16A) [FD1094 317-0060].mra and removed the corresponding original file, but this test is working fine together with tty2rpi. After some testing making new folder structures and setting problematic MRAs to root of _Arcade, I think m...

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

I had that marquee screen ready to go for over a year waiting for a solution like this!

Only problem now is that games in organized sub folders in "Arcade" don't show the marquee, only ones in the "Arcade" root folder solely. I will have to find out why or move files around.

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

I did not change config.txt the last 2 times, just doing "noob" installs. I tried a fresh install on pi5 and went back into imager settings after making another sd card to reset wifi password and that solved the connection issue there. Something new I tried was changing the username to tty2rpi, I had pi previously out of laziness. Pi 5 wo...

Correct. Let me setup a fresh Raspberry (don't have a 4 left, but a 5) to better understand what might go wrong at your setup.

Thank you so much!

I think this is one of the most amazing mister peripherals, so getting it to work would be great!

I have a 5 I could follow along with if everything works.

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

Meeeh...But are you getting some more output after editing cmdline.txt or still just a blinking cursor? Yes, it is verbose now. One error I'm getting is unable to open /dev/fb0. It still results in a blinking cursor once done. I should see the tty2rpi boot image as long as I follow the install instructions up until "Read on the next chapters ...

Still having the same problem after everything is installed. Even tried another microsd. No tty2rpi boot screen.

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

I'm doing a clean install now. I think I fubar something. Is it normal to not be able to access cmdline.txt and config.txt from a desktop? /boot/firmware is empty but I can access those files on the pi in nano. Update: Clean install with rpi4b 1gb ram on 32gb SanDisk microsd of bookworm lite 64-bit. Wifi settings from imager did not save again. cmd...

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

HDMI, 24 inch 21:9 innocn display.
Raspberry pi imager. Some settings didn't stick like wifi ssid and pwd. Fixed in config.
I was going to try an earlier rpi image, bullseye. I'm Hoping that maybe some dependencies in there would help.

That arcade looks AWESOME!
Thank you for all support.

Kind regards

I have a problem with the Jammix board. P3 and P4 get stuck inputs using the cps2 harness.

Also, more pin topic, what's your opinion on the new mistercade vs Jammix?

Re: tty2rpi Add-On (shows core based pictures and videos on a HDMI or DSI display)

I can not get this to work. I have tried all the steps under setting up the pi, Ini files, and media. I have an rpi4b with the 32 bit lite image.

My problem is that I just have a blank screen with a blinking underscore in the upper left corner. I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't know what. I think I'm supposed to see a tty2rpi logo, correct?
