bootcore_timeout Not Working Anymore

Unread post by SuperKeeks »

I updated my Mister last night and the bootcore_timeout isn't working anymore.

In MiSTer.ini I have these two lines:

Code: Select all

bootcore=lastcore    ; uncomment to autoboot a core, as the last loaded core.
bootcore_timeout=10
When turning on, it will load the lastcore, but it won't do the 10 second timeout as specified, it boots the core straight away.

Might be worth pointing out that prior to this update I was using a bootcore_timeout of 1, which wasn't a valid value in theory, but it did work. After the update I noticed an error message complaining about 1 not being an accepted value, so I changed to 10. The error is gone, but there is no timeout at all.

Thanks

I beleive this is now fixed in unstable main, which fixes osd_timeout also.

Edit 2022-11-27: The fix is included in the current stable main release (https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_Mi ... r/releases), so downloader/Update_All will grab a version without the issue.
