PiPlay 0.8 beta5.img Corrupted File SOLVED!
maybe the downloadmanager you use is not so good... thats the reason, why providing a SHA1 CRC MD5 checksum by the PiPLAY crew would be a good idea. everybody who download a file could check if the file is downloaded compleately and correctly by the…

Raspi b+ sound quality after firmware update
are you absolutely sure, that it is happened after an update (sudo rpi-update)...? that kind of noise may also happen with poor cable, bad contact, cheap audio amplifier or power supples, ground loops, different impedances of the devices and so on.…

pinball emulators?
simmerdown: Linux + Wine + FuturePinball* + x86 CPU ... only this combination is working. *) http://pinsimdb.org/projects/fpwine/

pinball emulators?
I think RPi is not strong enough for a physic-engine and 3d at the same time... so PinMAME + VP will not work my favorite FuturePinball is not open source and is only working on Windows.

Update to xboxdrv 0.8.5
i don*t know if xpad is in the kernel or if it will be loaded somewhen later. if it is in the kernel, maybe you can put xpad to the "blacklist" so it will not be loaded anymore at boot time. sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.confan…

Update to xboxdrv 0.8.5
i think the reason why version 0.8.4 of xboxdrv is installed in PiPLAY, because in the Raspberry Pi package repository is only that version available... and as long nobody complains, nobody goes the longer and more complicated way. i don't kno…

even when you have the correct roms version, that do not mean, that they will all work. some works, some not - that's the way mame and how it works... it is the same with the most recent mame version and roms. the emulator developing is always …

Update to xboxdrv 0.8.5
you can follow the steps to compile the xboxdrv by yourself (hopefully, it will compile on your PiPLAY installation successfully - maybe only my PiPLAY installation has the issue of not compiling) BTW: compiling itself took hours on a Raspberry Pi. …

strange... for unknown reason, I can not compile it on a PiPLAY environment... it complains libx11-dev is missing, even "libx11-dev " is installed and "X11/Xlib.h" exists... compiling failes on PiPLAY. I compiled it on a standar…

possibly the repository you try to use, is not a one for the Raspberry Pi... but, isn't it possible to compile it yourself? source code of version 0.8.5 http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/ or version 0.9.0 ? https://github.com/Grumbel/xb…

the web and the installed version says "8.7", does that mean 0.8 beta7 ?! I never again will play around with the sd card images, when I know the version numbers of the web version and installed version. ... thank you.

Any PSX1 rom recommendations?
are you running your RPi at default speed or did you already overclocked your RPi (to Medium, High or Turbo)? i don't think that there are BIOS ROMs that can speed up the emulator. and a different psx video emulator driver is not available fo…
