Excellent. Thanks for all the hard work.

Any updates on this update?

Shea posted on his blog today that it would be out in the next day or so

Can't wait

I just wish they release it before the weekend. I have friends coming over for a retro gaming afternoon on Saturday.

@mholgatem
Have you guys considered including this in the next update?
http://pimame.org/forum/discussion/1708/please-remove-wolfram-enginge-and-related-packages#Item_7

bam!
https://github.com/ssilverm/piplay-installer

you can just use the updater menu.

@rolandblais - just open the popup menu, and adjust the volume, then exit the menu. that will create the file for you.

Damn Internet went out in my neighborhood! Hopefully they fix it tonight so I can try. Thanks again for the hard work!

@mholgatem is it updater.sh or update.sh? I got an error with updater.sh, but Since the github page shows update.sh, I went with that and it seems to be running.

great Job guys! am flying back from a trip to asia at the Moment but will start downloading as soon as I get home tonight. i followed the links and checked the download page, but I dont seem to have the possibility of downlaoding the Image file to my Laptop. am I missing something?

@englischdude - the 4GB file was still uploading when you checked. It should be finished and propagated through sourceforge now

@ian57 - That worked well. The kernel resolved the debounce issues even better than the hacked kernel I used for beta 8.
I'm still having issues with NES joystick controls: either the control configure isn't working, or the fceux isn't getting configured properly. What should the settings be for SDL.Inputs in fceux.cfg for joysticks?
Maybe the defined input device isn't getting set by piplay. I got it to work with minor issues in beta-8 but I didn't keep good notes.

Thanks for the response. But, PiPlay launcher doesn't stay open to be able to open the pop-up menu. I tried creating the file by hand, but still didn't work. got "no state present for card alsa" error. I'll keep plugging away and see what I can figure out. Thanks!

After updating in place from beta 8... how do we confirm we are on 9? I'm still showing "New Version Available" prompt top left?

@Pristopher - you'll have to grab those manually for now. I need to run a kickstarter or something so I can afford to host all the images myself.

Every PiPlay download link I try is taking around 12-19 hours to download ADSL 2. I did have it half downloaded then it stopped , corrupted and I had to start again. Googling other sites and downloads seem fine and quick.. Anyone else taking so long or is it just me?

@hinchhinch - ill try and find a mirror. SourceForge gives me unlimited transfer for free and mirrors across the US, but sometimes they are overloaded. It's hard to host a 4GB file.

I'll keep looking for solutions.

Awesome work keep it up ^_^

Ive hit it a snag or 2 after updating last
Every emulator except mame4all seem to have been deleted so for example when selecting a rom i get
/home/pi/pimame/emulators/dgen-sdl-1.32/dgen: not found

theres no dgen folder in emulators, tho theres nothing in emulators except mame4all

Any idea's how to correct this?

Only changes ive made other than mapping keys was a themes tweak to the emulator selection screen and hidden a few unused emulators in there to

Also seem to have had an issue for a few versions when i click to map controllers and select All the only 1 it dose is the first in the list then jumps back to the list once sorted. then again a few of the mappings crash because it cant find the location to save the file to so maybe there currently connected?

Whoops. Forgot to update that installer.sh file. It is now updated, but yes, always use the github piplay-installer repo. That is the most up to date.
