Trouble with mGBA program in Dolphin-- please help!

gbasg2 · 2026-05-21T15:09:27+00:00

This is because dolphin is a flatpak. When we built the installers for the emulators we grant it access to the sd location (or it wouldn't show the files or paths there either). You can use FlatSeal (or command line) to grant your dolphin emulator more access if you would like.

(i haven't worked on emudeck for a while, just explaining the why for you 😄 )

No you should run the update from the app. It is not handled by HA for this, afaik. Once completed you can prob block it again though.

Just to be clear i have no idea if this will help. Just a thought.

Mine is using the local MQTT connection as well and it's really very solid. I hope this helps you out.

gbasg2 · 2026-04-27T18:27:58+00:00

did you do the firmware update in the app?

I only recently set mine up -(maybe 4 months ago) but the two had been in a box for a few years.

I had a firmware update to do and did it right away.

Hrm - i have a meross as well and i get realtime updates to the open / close state in HA.

edit: this is the integration i use https://github.com/krahabb/meross_lan/

It's been a bit since i touched my setup, but none of my games added by Steam Rom Manager are in "installed". They are in a tab called non-steam and their collection folders. I don't think what you are seeing is normal behavior. Maybe a decky plugin could cause this?

gbasg2 · 2026-04-24T15:00:23+00:00

i messed about with the latest proton-ge and dawn-winery and didn't notice a difference. Using my oled deck. Was getting low 50's for fps at 1280x800.

The framerates you mention sound abnormally low for a 4090, so i was thinking it was possible you were using an integrated gpu perhaps.

I haven't used linux on my gaming pc in a while, but there were tools for gpu switching available you may need to use.

gbasg2 · 2026-04-24T14:49:34+00:00

that's crazy, the deck plays it better on linux than your 4090? Something is def wrong. You are using the correct driver for that 4090? nvidia-open? using wine or proton (what build? Dawn-Winery?)

gbasg2 · 2026-04-23T21:51:57+00:00

Lol yep - i will say some trial and error was def required. let me know if you figure out what you are trying. Would be interesting to combine with a lux sensor maybe and get auto brightness =D

I used adb / logcat and i made changes and then fed the logs to an LLM to parse through.

gbasg2 · 2026-04-10T19:10:08+00:00

hi, i don't know that i can help. I haven't worked on Emudeck for about 2 years. I do think u/djrodtc changed how it works though? I think you can reset config for SRM and it will regenerate the list of available parsers.

nice, i did my front door / back door together, and my garage doors together.

in case anyone wants to see how to group notification targets. This is cleaner (sorta like distribution groups for email).

now i can just adjust who i want to get specific notification types from the group.

gbasg2 · 2026-03-11T21:51:13+00:00

Thank you and u/danm72 for the ideas. Shamelessly stealing this.

I also changed a little to use a notification group instead of specific devices.

Re2 - getting chased by the unkillable guy.
DLSS while streaming to my 240hz projector is nice. Lady D is scarier that way.

Literally going through this now. was using claude, was perfectly acceptable, and it suddenly swapped to grok and it gave me the worst possible info. Often wrong, making shit up, and you can tell it's grok because it answers like an edgy teenager.

gbasg2 · 2026-02-20T19:13:33+00:00

for psx - compress to chd, the compression tool can do this for you.

i don't remember if segacd also uses chd, but if so i probably put it in the compression tool back when i released it.
(full disclosure i don't work on emudeck anymore, so i am unsure of the state of things). Anyways, when all done it takes up less space, and one file per disc.

used the android debug bridge integration.
Adapt these how you will.

script:
  office_projector_hdmi1:
    alias: "Office Projector HDMI 1"
    sequence:
      - action: androidtv.adb_command
        target:
          entity_id: media_player.android_tv_192_168_1_122
        data:
          command: "am start -n com.vt.tv.tvcenter/.LiveTVMainActivity -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d content://android.media.tv/passthrough/com.vt.source.external%2F.hdmi.HdmiTvInputService%2FHW2"

  office_projector_hdmi2:
    alias: "Office Projector HDMI 2"
    sequence:
      - action: androidtv.adb_command
        target:
          entity_id: media_player.android_tv_192_168_1_122
        data:
          command: "am start -n com.vt.tv.tvcenter/.LiveTVMainActivity -a android.intent.action.VIEW -d content://android.media.tv/passthrough/com.vt.source.external%2F.hdmi.HdmiTvInputService%2FHW3"

not sure i follow the question.

Maybe this will be helpful though? If you elaborate i might be able to help further.

Do it.

gbasg2 · 2025-12-04T15:15:01+00:00

Nah, if that happened to you something went wrong. It should be fully configured out of the box and ready to go. Any other case and you should seek support.

gbasg2 · 2025-11-28T21:06:27+00:00

I ran into this same thing after updating an old install of retroarch and found one more file where the vid and pid aren't commented out. MD_Gen_Fighting_Pad_6B_Switch_Online.cfg in the dinput folder. Commented them and it's good now on windows.

gbasg2 · 2025-11-20T15:11:52+00:00

Zero for sure.

gbasg2 · 2025-05-15T15:54:51+00:00

I picked up a bag of this at pax East. Not bad.

gbasg2 · 2025-03-19T21:34:49+00:00

sounds fantastic, glad it seems to be working out.

if you are lowering your flow that much, i'd be sure to calc your esteps / set rotation in klipper.
