On 3.72 Ive got 2 game BIN files in PCSX-ReArmed. With 3.82 do I copy the whole folder over or just the BINS and put them somewhere else as I dont see a PCSX-ReArmed folder...

The folders are named after the consoles rather than the emulator now. The folder you want is playstation.

So how do I shutdown the pi? Before I just had to press left or right arrows on my keyboard and it would take me to a menu where I can safely shutdown, and now it seems to be gone.
instead of left/right arrows hit f4 on keyboard to get to the same menu.

Ok... then you can go in to your CONTROLS settings (hit TAB ... then go to CONTROLS)... you will find a setting for EXIT. Select EXIT... then click ADD INPUT. When you push your TEST/SERVICE (which ever button you want). You will then assign the EXIT option to that button.

This will NOT get you EXACTLY what you want... but it will get you close. When you push that button it will bring up "EXIT ATTRACT MODE? Y/N" ... you would then have to select yes or no and when you do it will exit and then kick you to the service menu you desire.

BTW ... this is all based on assumptions here... I've not tested it, but it SHOULD work.

Perhaps Dee2er has an alternative way to maybe assign your test/service button to a custom slot that would open that menu... not 100% sure though.

This worked as you said. THANKS!

One more question, earlier you mentioned using the keyboard and pushing F1 to change audio sync issue. I've got the cab open, start cab, gets to attract-mode, hit F1 and nothing happens.

F1 depends on the emulator currently being used. MAME 2003 (MAME078) and FBA both have the F1 screen... I am not sure but I suspect that MAME 2010 (MAME139) also does, but I don't use that emulator much. MAME 172 and 181 or 192 (or whatever it's up to now) do not have the F1 screen.

I suspect you were using 172 when you attempted to hit F1.

Any other vertical 3.82 users here? Just wondering if you've experienced the same things I've experienced with games being display incorrectly? ie. not full screen

I haven't been able to duplicate this issue (tried on 2 diff SD cards now), in 480i or 240p mode it works fine for me. The fact that some games are working fine for you, while others in the same emulator arn't is also confusing...

Have you tried re-imaging the SD card at all? Struggling to think of what would cause it to behave like this.

I've burnt the image a few times over on different cards. Same things occur. I'm so puzzled it's not funny.

I like to think I'm a good troubleshooter, but I have NFI what is occurring.

Are you using the parent roms or clones? It occured that maybe I'm not testing the right versions to reproduce the issue. I only tested parent roms.

Strange issue. Ive being adding snaps (.mp4s) and missing Marquees. All has gone well with my testing. Last night I hashed out the ROM scanning at start up (did not put back in to test) and this morning I edited my all games list. Removed a few entries and put a few games in order (ie: numerical order of DK, Gauntlet, etc). Saved list. Went to test and boot up cab, nothing but a Pi@Raspberry(???) prompt. Take card back out and check RUN.sh in case I screwed up a hash.... Its BLANK! Nothing in it. I dont think I deleted the entries? If I did is there a hidden back up? OR Dee2er can you post whats suppose to be there so I can copy and paste it back in if its that simple??? I was so close to having it perfectly working and this happened.... UGH. THANKS!!!!!!!!!
