ParticipantYou can issue a clear command while omxplayer is playing the video.
edit the following
sudo nano /etc/profile.d/10-emulationstation.sh
insert this above the other lines
[ "$(tty)" = "/dev/tty1" ] && clear

Participant1) start in the advancemame directory
cd ~/.advance
2) download the cheat file
wget http://cheat.retrogames.com/download/cheat126.zip
3) extract it
unzip cheat126.zip
4) edit your the rc file (either advmame-0.94.0.rc or advmame-1-2.rc)
nano advmame-0.94.0.rc
5) find where it says misc_cheat, and enable the option
misc_cheat yes
6) while in an advancemame game, press tab to bring up the cheat menu which is now available.synack
ParticipantThanks for your post, this helped with my issue of using 2 mice w/ AdvMAME.
For those who have a trackball and want to determine which /dev/input/mouse# device is being assigned, you can do
cat /dev/input/mouse0
and see if characters appear when moving the trackball. If nothing comes up, trycat /dev/input/mouse1
and doing the same. Press ^C to stop.synack
ParticipantNice job on the finished product.
There doesn’t appear to be support within ES, but you can use something external to map keys to actions. Link is included in my post above.

ParticipantI like the music, although not a huge fan of credits on the actual product, especially since you did not create the original video.
Anyways, you could have AutoKey (https://code.google.com/p/autokey/) mapped to a command such as
pkill omxplayer
which will stop the video if a certain key or key combination is pressed.synack
Participantinteresting… after purchasing a discrete power supply for the RPI2 instead of powering it from my powered USB hub, the ghost inputs have gone away with the buffalo controllers.

ParticipantOne quick way is to run a script in the background checking for the existence of a few processes. The bash script should work if you use all RetroArch emulators, and will play random mp3s in the background until a game is launched.
#!/bin/bash while true; do RA=$(pgrep retroarch) ES=$(pgrep emulationstat) M123=$(pgrep mpg123) if [ "$RA" ]; then pkill mpg123 elif [ ! "$RA" ] && [ ! "$M123" ] && [ "$ES" ]; then mpg123 -q -Z ~/RetroPie/media/mp3/* &>/dev/null & fi sleep 1 done

Participanthere’s a log of jstest with ‘micro signals’ from the Buffalo controller. all events listed came from the buffalo gamepad itself without user interaction. I might take a look at the drivers/input/joypad.c source and play with js_event … or when I inevitably get lazy, just order some 8bitdo controllers.

ParticipantI’m also having the same problem with ghosting/false dpad inputs with Buffalo controllers. It’s not noticeable during an action/platformer, but I can see it being difficult in menu driven games (and the emulation station menu itself).
