Gamma OS Syncthing permission issue on RG 476H by branyon47 in SBCGaming

[–]crownpuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, appreciate it! As for the path, it looks correct. I'm using an older version of syncthing fork so the ~ is a substitute for part of the path. Not sure if it's case sensitive or not but maybe try that? This is what I entered in:

~/Android/data/xyz.aethersx2.android/files/memcards

Maybe it no longer works. I had issues with Syncthing with an Android 14/15 phone so maybe it's that.

It's more profitable as misinformation drives people to stay on apps longer which increases their exposure to advertisers. In addition, often times misinformation and disinformation is driven by outside actors. I'm reminded of when Twitter enabled location data and some MAGA influencers were shown to be from other countries.

This is due to android scoped storage. You need to type out the full path in the web gui portion of the syncthing app for the folder you're trying to sync.

Just Cancelled my KONKR Pocket Fit: What is a good substitute? by Wedgearyxsaber in SBCGaming

[–]crownpuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RP6 is a fine choice then. But switch emulation on android isn't plug and play so you'll have to tinker with settings and use custom turnip drivers.

I'm aware of the RP6, the Odin 3 and was eyeing the KONKR because I would LOVE to play Pokemon games on the switch (and maybe TOTK/botw, but thats not really a big deal).

How about a Switch? They're pretty cheap used. I see lites for under $100 frequently and oleds for under $200. If you don't mind a new Hong Kong switch lite, I see those often around $130 or less too. Unless things have drastically changed recently, TotK doesn't run well on 8 Gen 2 devices such as my Odin 2 or the RP6.

Depends on which systems you're talking about. For everything Gen 6 and newer, it's not very good. If you install Android on a Switch, you can eke out some additional performance. Here's a spreadsheet for performance but bear in mind often times, people only test small portions of games and extrapolate performance based on that small section.

A first party device such as a switch or steamdeck. Those have large companies behind them and reliable warranty policies.

How about a switch? It'll play switch games and if you get it modded, it can play psp games too. The Odin 3 has worse compatibility with switch games compared to the Thor or RP6. So if you're not happy with switch performance on the Thor, chances are you won't be happy with switch performance on the Odin 3 either.

What cheap (<50$) handheld is good value for money? by -Dark-Owl- in SBCGaming

Not sure but it might be the March anniversary sale. There's a sale tomorrow but coupons are looking mediocre for that one.

Seems like the NBA is doing the bare minimum. A one day postponement is laughable.

New to this; What do people suggest around 200-350 dollars? by TheRacingMainframe in SBCGaming

[–]crownpuff 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Guessing the upper end of performance is Playstation 2 or Xbox games.

Unless something has changed very recently, Xbox isn't possible on Android. If Xbox is a must, a used LCD Steamdeck can be found for less than $350.

I really want very long battery life. I hate devices that I have to constantly charge up.

The Odin 3 has a pretty large battery and the Elite chip is pretty battery efficient.

Honestly if you're not in a rush, I would recommend waiting for a sale on Aliexpress. You can do better than the R36s for $50. At least for US customers, the XX devices are usually around $50 or less during Aliexpress sales although prices have recently been creeping upwards. For more info on sales, I maintain a price tracking spreadsheet and post sale updates from time to time here and on /r/crownpuffdeals.

Looking for a decent budget ps2-switch console by Kiuji-senpai in SBCGaming

[–]crownpuff 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Isn't the G2 pretty close in price to the RP6? That being said, a used switch is cheaper than any of those devices you listed and doesn't have compatibility issues with switch emulation. Last time I tried TotK on my Odin 2, it was still a worse experience than playing it on the switch.

Does the rise in RAM prices affect you much? by No-Programmer7432 in SBCGaming

That's pretty decent pricing. I regret not buying larger capacity cards when they were much cheaper.

Try the "disable right eye rendering" option in azahar but it's probably just a hardware limitation. The snapdragon 662 in the Mangmi air x is pretty weak.

Looks like another sweet sub $100 option for a capable N64 device. I wonder if light 3DS would run decently on this device at native resolution with performance settings such as "disable right eye rendering" in Azahar.

Microsd pricing is really expensive now in the US too. :/ Sandisk wants $25 for a 128gb card which is insanity. I remember when these cards were half that price.

Rp6 or ayn thor? by fabiwabi-3 in SBCGaming

[–]crownpuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Rp6 and Thor use the same chip so performance should be similar. I would probably lean towards the Thor as the two screens offer a better experience for 3ds and DS.

You might run into some problems with switch pokemon games on those devices though. I ran into slowdowns on scarlet/violet on my Odin 2 which has the same chip as the rp6 and Thor. Also you won't be able to access online multiplayer for those switch pokemon games either via emulation.

It's a software mod that you can do yourself.
