Retroplayer Amiga P-UAE Model Problems

1st Official Post

    Hi,

    Running the latest LibreElec on RPi 4,and SNES Retroplayer works great, but I'm now having issues with Amiga P-UAE. I have the various Kickstart ROMS installed and the default Amiga 500 emulation runs fine. Setting the Model in Advanced Settings to Amiga 1200 and trying to run an AGA game however only runs the A500 1.3 kickstart, causing the newer games to refuse to load. I've checked the names and md5 of the kickstart files and they are correct, it just appears that libretro is not getting the right model set. I've tried various combinations of models, roms and adf games files named according to the docs, but P-UAE persists in only running A500.


    Any suggestions on fixes, or debugging steps / logging, etc to figure this out gratefully received!


    Cheers!

    Some progress, debug logging shows the following error:


    ERROR: AddOnLog: Commodore - Amiga (P-UAE): Setting puae_model: invalid value "A1200" (values are: Model; A500|A500|A500OG|A500PLUS|A600|A1200|A1200OG)


    Note that I set the Model to A1200 using the Kodi Advanced Settings, so the value set is as set by Kodi, and appears to be the correct value. I've also tried manually editing the value in the settings.xml and same result.

    Not sure if this error is coming from Kodi itself, libretro, or P-UAE? I suspect it may be that LibreElec has mismatched versions of libretro-uae and p-uae?


    Cheers!

    updates are now at the LE repository available, you may need to manual force a update of the repository

    Thanks CvH! I've updated to 2.6.1.6.1and it's still a problem, albeit with more options now available including the new Auto option:

    Code
    ERROR: AddOnLog: Commodore - Amiga (P-UAE): Setting puae_model: invalid value "A1200" (values are: Model; auto|auto|A500OG|A500|A500PLUS|A600|A1200OG|A1200|A4030|A4040|CD32|CD32FR)

    At least that means I can head upstream knowing I'm using their latest version (although the thought occurs it could be an encoding issue?).

    Downside to the update though is that the screen ratio is now wrong, it's now stretched horizontally for some reason. I did a full clean uninstall/remove settings/reboot/reinstall but it persists. I'll have to play with the settings.

    Given there's a lack of support for disk switching I'll likely not be using the Amiga emulator much via Kodi for now, but fingers crossed for Matrix.

    Cheers! (literally, I've tipped you a beer or two for all your work :))
