Picade-PiPlay
no problem. This is very cool. I am wondering if I can hook up a potentiometer to my gpio and control this.

if one of them plays, but the other doesn't, then you may be missing some files. inside either your rom.zip or your neogeo.zip. on your system, you can grab the file '/home/pi/pimame/emulators/fba/fba_029671_clrmame_dat.zip', unzip th…

Remove escape to console
oops, that's right. Python would expect to see something there, so you would need to comment the 'if event.button == 1:' part out too. sorry bout that. It won't mess anything else up.

PiPlay unable to detect ROMs in subfolders and input mapping
As of right now, each emulator has it's own config file. I'm not sure if they are planning on writing all of the configs to a single file in the future, but I do know that you will still be able to configure them on a per emulator basis. T…

PiPlay unable to detect ROMs in subfolders and input mapping
The controller config will map button presses from either a joystick/gamepad/gpio mapped buttons. But first you have to have your gpio buttons set up and a script running to register the buttons as key presses. If you need help with that part of it,…

Dell 1503fp Monitor, odd behavior
maybe try doing a complete format of your sd card (erase mode) and then re-imaging it

see the front end emulators instead of the list.

it looks like you are still pointing to the emulator (fba2x) rather than the frontend (fbacapex). change it in the config.yaml file

NES Legal notice: How do you remove it?
yeah, I compiled the fceux last week and can confirm that it is much better. The sound is pretty much spot on.

Map XBOX controller buttons to Keyboard?
you can probably find a third party script that will allow you to do this. Or you can buy a momentary button and wire it up to your gpio pins. I got 100 of them for $1.49 http://www.ebay.com/itm/100pcs-Tactile-Pushbutton-Switch-Momentary-Tact-LCD-S…

piplay is probably going to be moving over to the fceux emulator with the next release due to distorted sound problems with the current emulator. Fceux doesn't have the legal popup either

@wernernagel2005 - I've never encountered that sort of problem. I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything. Please let me know what you find out!

Idle video?
Well, you would need a script that polls for button presses. Then you would add a timer to that script. The timer would need to be set to run your screen saver every 900,000 ticks (1000 milliseconds X 60 seconds X 15 minutes). Then you would need to…

Advance MAME Menu
yeah, for pimame menu, you basically need up/down/left/right/esc/enter. That's pretty much it for navigation. All of the emulators have config files that can be used to change any keys for in game.
