I'm completely new to retroarch and already got a possibly dumb question: Why isn't there a 3.2.4 build with retroarch?

Garbear's initial port was one against OpenELEC 3.2.0 branch and is still very much in development. He is busy at the moment and hasn't had the time to merge it against the latest branch. This will happen at some point, but i think he is more focused on fix issues at the moment.

Darn, can't test still as I get no HD Audio with any Openelec builds before 3.2.3 on amd. Patiently waiting.... Smile

Thanks for the build. Downloaded and will test soon!

@prae5

Thank for your answer! It works great! I just have to figure out how to set controls...

Has anyone built a windows copy newer than whats listed in the OP? Tried to do it myself but started getting a tad more into what I could handle with my VM.

Additionally, it does arrive in dmesg, but that's about as far as it gets. Is there a general configuration rule for controllers, or should it be working out-the-box.

I very rarely bump my own threads post, but I don't believe I'm the only one who wants this? Is there some setup guide for controllers in OE? I feel I'm totally missed something here! Smile


RE: RetroPlayer Test Builds - garbear - 2013-12-24

controllers are the first thing I'll take a look at when I return to this project. Turning keymal.xml files into add-ons and finishing the Joystick API are the first things I'm focusing on. I'll try to make it easier to configure controllers, but it'll probably still be delegated to the hand-editing of XML files. The offer is still open, though, if anyone wants a python-based configuration utility I can work with them to get this working.

Looks like you guys already made a lot of progress on this work since before

Hi Garbear,

I'm trying to compile Retroplayer Project Intel Arch x86_64 on a ubuntu virtual machine, just in order to enable DragonRise joystick support, but after resolve some issues, I reach a point where there is an error on a Makefile created by autogen Makefile.def,

The error is in line 4200:

.PHONY: maybe-maintainer-clean-gcc maintainer-clean-gcc
maybe-maintainer-clean-gcc:
maybe-maintainer-clea\00\00gcc: maintainer-clean-gcc

thats \00\00 produce an error on compile:

config.status: creating Makefile
make[1]: Entering directory `/media/amejia/LINUX/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-Intel.x86_64-devel/gcc-4.7.3/.x86_64-openelec-linux-gnu-bootstrap'
Makefile:4200: *** missing separator. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/media/amejia/LINUX/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-Intel.x86_64-devel/gcc-4.7.3/.x86_64-openelec-linux-gnu-bootstrap'
make: *** [release] Error 2


I edited Makefile, remove that characters but again file is created and that characters appear again

Thanks for your help, and congratulation for your hard work on this project


RE: RetroPlayer Test Builds - garbear - 2014-01-15

Sorry alejomejia, this isn't something I'll be of much help on. It looks like the error is occurring when compiling GCC (several hours before the openelec build chain even reaches xbmc). Good luck!

The link to your repo on the OP has a extra . on the end.

RE: RetroPlayer Test Builds - dr88dr88 - 2014-01-31

Is there a RetroPlayer test build for OpenELEC 4 nightly builds that I can install on my new NUC ?

no. this won't happen until I "rebase" retroplayer (update it to the current XBMC code). I was planning on rebasing when xbmc hit feature-freeze, but that time has come and gone. My next goal is to finish the rebase soon after the first beta. I'll put out an OpenELEC 4 build soon after that.

Thanks for your support! I may post a bitcoin address in the future. I formatted over my last wallet a few days ago (still hoping to recover the 0.3 btc I mined for a friend) so I recommend waiting until I learn how to backup my files properly :p
