Here's the log

Also can you tell me how to use pulseaudio instead of alsa?

Hmmm can you try the usePulseAudio ?

How can I do that?

EDIT: I have also a problem with Dolphin, when launching a game I have a window "failed to create shared context for shader compiling" with 2 buttons "ok" and "ignore for this session". if I click ok the game launch, how can I remove this window?

FYI I needed to create the nokms file in retroarch config dir to make retroarch work

What's your audio backend? ALSA or PulseAudio?

Alsa

5schatten I have an issue with amd hdmi audio (on two differents cards r7 260 and r9 270x), there are crackling noise and the audio has some kind of bad echo in it (sound repeats 3 times in kodi for example).

This issue happens both in kodi and retroarch, is it a know issue for amd hdmi audio?

I've not tested n64 cores because I'm always disappointed.

About the drama it reminds me of the libretro/redream drama, so much hate

That's the whole point of the loganmc10 vs TA drama two years ago, no more mainteiner, no more updates

Quote from 5schatten

Well doesn't the lr core use GLideN64?! IMHO ParaLLEl uses some diffrent plugins

It does but a very old version from two years ago, that's the problem.

see here:

https://github.com/libretro/mupen64plus-libretro/tree/master/gliden64

so all of this is fixed since then:

Releases · gonetz/GLideN64 · GitHub

It would need a complete rewrite of the core, it's difficult, hence the big bounty. So I would not hold my breath for that.

I understand that you prefer to use libretro core for easier setup but I think for now libretro is not the best for most 3d era systems (except saturn and psx)

The problem is not the RSP but the RDP plugin.

m64p uses GLideN64, the best HLE plugin now.

The libretro core can't use that, it's based on old sources because it's author, loganmc10, stopped core development to create m64p (classic retroarch/TA drama).

It seems compatibility is much better with this standalone emu.

EDIT: Update M64p + GlideN64 and/or ParaLLEl +GlideN64 to Latest Build · Issue #57 · libretro/mupen64plus-libretro · GitHub

Hey that's great!

One last thing concerning emulators, I think retroarch n64 cores are outdated, would it be difficult to add this standalone build of mupen64 to the x86-64 build?

And for genesis plus gx I think you should separate the different systems supported using different folders for roms for gg sms and segacd, like this:

<system>
<name>gamegear</name>
<fullname>Sega Game Gear</fullname>
<path>/storage/roms/gamegear</path>
<extension>.bin .gg .sg .zip</extension>
<command>/usr/bin/retroarch.start -L /tmp/cores/genesis_plus_gx_libretro.so %ROM%</command>
<platform>gamegear</platform>
<theme>gamegear</theme>
</system>


<system>
<name>mastersystem</name>
<fullname>Sega Master System</fullname>
<path>/storage/roms/mastersystem</path>
<extension>.bin .sms .zip</extension>
<command>/usr/bin/retroarch.start -L /tmp/cores/genesis_plus_gx_libretro.so %ROM%</command>
<platform>mastersystem</platform>
<theme>mastersystem</theme>
</system>


<system>
<name>segacd</name>
<fullname>Sega Mega-CD</fullname>
<path>/storage/roms/segacd</path>
<extension>.iso .cue .chd</extension>
<command>/usr/bin/retroarch.start -L /tmp/cores/genesis_plus_gx_libretro.so %ROM%"%ROM_RAW%"</command>

for msx the trick is to set default machine to msx2 in core option by default in retroarch, because all msx1 games works fine on msx2 bios/hardware

Would it be possible to add some missing libretro cores to your build?

nec pcengine

GitHub - libretro/beetle-pce-fast-libretro: Standalone port of Mednafen PCE Fast to libretro.

atari 2600

GitHub - libretro/stella-libretro: Port of Stella to libretro.

atari 800

GitHub - libretro/libretro-atari800: atari800 3.1.0 for libretro/libco WIP

msx (some cool games like the first two Metal Gear)

GitHub - libretro/blueMSX-libretro: Port of blueMSX to the libretro API.

All of them works fine on rpi, they are mature cores, they are not updated often so it would not be much work to maintain.

@5schatten it works fine now!

Now would it be possible to add lcd support to your build with this?

https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/11736-led-vfd-displays-in-libreelec/?postID=101050#post101050

You could also add the new kronos libretro core (Saturn)

try theAmlogic S905 build -> this should include the drivers you need.

Thank you wifi and BT are now working!!

The last problem I have for now is my usb keyboard (french/azerty).

I set keyboard mode to fr/azerty in kodi regional menu and in libreelec config menu, the virtual keyboard is correctly changed to azerty, but my usb real keyboard is still set to qwerty mode.

How can I change that?

Quote from 5schatten

You have any clue what kind of wifi chipset is installed? What kernel version has the stock firmware? Maybe the drivers are missing for this wifi stuff

MAGICSEE N5 Android TV OS TV Box - FreakTab.com

as you can see on the freaktab thread the stock firmware use kernel 3.14.29

According to this, the wifi chip is CDTECH CDW2010230-00, it seems to be a Qualcomm QCA1023 / QCA9377.

It seems to need ath10k driver with sdio support.

EDIT: Or maybe this driver?

So what's wrong with BT & WiFi? It won't find any devices?

Exactly, no wifi network in the related menu, and not bluetooth dongle found when I enable bluetooth service in kodi

install.sh does not work correctly, I'm using an alpha build of le9 LibreELEC 9.0 Reborn Remix [ Emulationstation | Retroarch | DolphinQT | Moonlight | Chrome | Spotify | MakeMKV ]

It seems I need a compiled dtb file and not a dts file.

I tried to use one from latest coreelec release but it doesn't work. "gxl_p212_2g.dtb" dtb files from coreelec are only 40kB, yours is 44kB, maybe something is missing/different?

EDIT : nm found a working "gxl_p212_2g.dtb" here Test LibreELEC images with KODI-18 for S9xxx

EDIT 2: now my usb keyboard and mouse are working, but still no luck with wifi and bluetooth

EDIT 3: here is my dmesg http://ix.io/1ou2
