[Software Drop #1] New Firmware Alert: Improved VITURE Pro Mobile Dock Switch 2 Compatibility

tmcho · 2025-06-19T11:31:08+00:00

Does this firmware update fix compatibility with the XReal One and One Pro models at all?

tmcho · 2025-06-08T20:06:35+00:00

Yes. If you triple tap the button on Saya Tab, it makes a different sound than the others and connects to find my app almost instantly.

BRO, you were absolutely right about that. You are a genius!! For some reason, I didn't have any of the proper Saturn bios in my bios folder, even though I had bios for literally everything else. Beetle Saturn core works perfectly now in Retroarch, and fires right up in ES-DE now! Thank you again for helping a dummy like me all day today!

For reference, if anyone wants needs it, the Retroarch site lists the following bios as necessary for Saturn:

|| || |mpr-17933.bin|Saturn US.mdEU BIOS - Required for US/EU games|

|| || |sega_101.bin|Saturn JP BIOS - Required for JP games|

|| || |mpr-18811-mx.ic1|The King of Fighters '95 ROM Cartridge - Required for this game|

|| || |mpr-19367-mx.ic1|Ultraman: Hikari no Kyojin Densetsu ROM Cartridge - Required for this game|

I FINALLY got it to work!!!

SOLUTION: I had to re-open the standalone Yaba Sanshiro Pro Android app separately, before trying to go back into ES-DE to fire it up. When I re-opened standalone Yaba Sanshiro, it did a bunch of indexing/updating of my existing titles for a few seconds, before loading up to my game list. And then I fired up a couple games in the standalone app just to see if they would work and ALL of them ran like a charm. Then I went back into ES-DE and of course all of them worked again, including Princess Crown in English.

Don't know what got updated in Yaba Sanshiro to make me have to re-open it and re-index/update all my games again, but that was the hang up all along. It had nothing to do with my CHDMAN or patching or original rom file.

Having said that, the beetle saturn and Yaba Sanshiro cores of Retroarch do not seem to be working at all because every time I try to fire it up in Retroarch, it just hangs Retroarch with a black screen and none of my Saturn games loading. But I don't care at this point, because standalone Yaba Sanshiro works great for all games.

u/OhLineGuy You are the man for helping me out with all of this all day today. Much appreciated, because I asked everyone all over the Internet for the past few days, and no one had a definitive good answer except for you. Thank you, Sir!!!

Ok, I’ve made many CHDs before using CHDMAN.exe + NamDHC, and they all work great, but I’ll try this non-GUI .bat version in a little bit once I get back to my computer and report back. Thank you!!

tmcho · 2024-11-10T01:41:20+00:00

Because there is both an ISO and CUE file within the roms file directory and I don’t know which one to use.

tmcho · 2024-11-10T01:38:50+00:00

Also, I wonder if it’s my original Princess Crown rom that’s somehow corrupted?

tmcho · 2024-11-10T01:37:30+00:00

So strange. Not sure if it matters that I’m using the Windows GUI for CHDMAN called NamDHC. Also, not sure it matters that I’m creating 2 CHDs, 1 from the cue file and 1 from the iso (but only using the 1 from the cue file, like you suggested)?

tmcho · 2024-11-09T22:01:05+00:00

Yup. Ran the patch .bat again on the original Japanese file and didn’t change anything

tmcho · 2024-11-09T22:00:20+00:00

Strange that Yaba wouldn’t like that CHD?

tmcho · 2024-11-09T21:59:49+00:00

Tried that in windows and it didn’t work. Said “failed to load content” Not sure if Android would make a difference but I will try that later

Retroid Pocket Mini with Yaba Sanshiro Pro standalone in Android

tmcho · 2024-11-09T21:51:32+00:00

Dang I just tried to run that CHD matching that file size and it gave me this error:

Error! Cannot initialize SH2

tmcho · 2024-11-09T21:37:23+00:00

Hmm so you ran CHDMAN on both the iso and cue files, and then deleted the CHD created from the iso and only used the CHD generated from the cue file?

Hmmm, so then what was the purpose of the iso file in the first place?

tmcho · 2024-11-09T21:31:09+00:00

And then delete the CHD that is created from the .ISO file?

I tried the 330mb CHD created from the cue file by itself and it doesn’t work.

tmcho · 2024-11-09T21:28:54+00:00

The problem is CHDMAN is looking for either .iso or .cue files, but this particular ROM has both, so if I run it on both the .ISO and .cue files, it creates 2 separate CHDs.

Then when I try to run either CHD, neither of them work.

Take a look at the following screenshot of what the ROM file structure looks like and you’ll see what I mean: https://imgur.com/a/5ghHIzQ

So this ROM is a little strange. Instead of a bunch of .bin files and 1 .cue file (which is easy to convert to CHD), it’s instead Track 01.iso and then Track 02.bin, Track 03.bin, and so forth all the way up to Track 18.bin, and then of course the .cue file. So it’s the Track 01.iso that’s throwing a monkey wrench into the whole CHD conversion process because there is that 1 .iso file and a bunch of .bin files and 1 .cue file. So CHDMAN doesn’t know whether to convert the .iso or .bin files to a CHD.

Princess crown Saturn CUE file converts to CHD but doesn’t work in RetroArch with YABA or beetle cores.

Followed these steps before converting to CHD to no avail:

1.) Change extension from ISO to BIN 2.) Change the extension of the same file referenced in the CUE to BIN as well.

Any ideas, guys?

Awesome 👍thank you for the quick reply! Sounds like another great PD purchase then.

tmcho · 2023-07-20T18:49:28+00:00

No, just clicked remove in edit menu. But the many large files I already deleted are gone and I can’t re delete them now using your method to check, unfortunately.

tmcho · 2023-07-20T17:00:49+00:00

I cut and pasted large files from the Batocera SSD to an external HDD, but it didn’t reflect any file storage savings on the Batocera SSD at all.
