Gpsp is the big one for me, I have about 25 GBA games and one of my main reasons for getting the Caanoo was not having to carry all those cartridges around with me. It would be nice if MAME4all could be optimised a bit too; most of the games I've tried have either run badly or not at all...

Yep, this is why I went for the Caanoo over the Pandora. I don't mind the price itself - it's actually quite reasonable if you view the machine as a pocket computer that's also a games console - but it's just not good enough to take £250 off your customers only to shrug your shoulders and say...

4GB is doing me fine at the moment (now half full and I have almost everything I want), although 8GB might be good to keep on the safe side. More than that is unnecessary at the moment IMO; the video player is a pile of ass. As others have said, it's actually pretty damn hard to go over 8GB if...

With Snes9x4C, the problem might be your filenmames. The rom selector in that program is very basic, it just lists what's in your /roms folder and it crashes if there are any subfolders or unusual characters. For instance, it crashed on me because some of my filenames had the Spanish ñ symbol...

Same here. I tested it with three different AVI files from three different sources and none of them played properly. It's probably the most disappointing thing about my Caanoo, I know you can't expect it to be up to par with the newest smartphones but it'd be nice to be able to watch a couple of...

Installed it, and the video player still isn't worth a damn. You'd think that jumping up to 1.5 would be a big change but it seems not.

I'm not usually so shallow, but since the machines are so similar in terms of specs, I went for the Caanoo because it looks so much nicer. The Wiz is kind of ugly in comparison. Feels good in the hands as well, especially the XABY buttons. It's kind of frustrating waiting for emulators, but it's...

I still can't change the keymapping. I tried to set II to be the fire button so I could play Dodonpachi vertically, but no matter what I do, the II button ALWAYS inserts a coin and I is always the start button (it's also the 2-player start button so if you press it during gameplay a second...

I just got the import tax letter as well. I don't really know what to do about it, I've googled around a bit and I don't think there's any way to legally avoid it. Although it's technically a UK government thing rather than a Fedex thing, 30 quid is a lot of money to hide in the small print; I...

I don't know about anyone else, but I can't get Sonic 3 & Knuckles to save my games. Has anyone else had this problem and if so, were they able to solve it?

Okay thanks, I'll try that later.

Pretty much every single one. Which games did you test? Nearly every game I've tried either has severe sound problems or no sound at all. Only the beepy NES style audio track seems to be playing for the most part, so you get the odd beep in some games - everything more complex is silent. But...

Hi, seems to be working pretty nicely, but is there any way to quit the emulator once you've started playing a rom? And any way to change the controls? Or is that stuff coming in the alpha release?

Thanks, that did the job fine. Poor Snes9X4C is still crashing though, but I guess that one's beta anyway.

Well, you were right, GnGeo and Gpsp both have scripts that launch the default menu. They go: cd /usr/gp2x exec ./gp2xmenu I looked in the Gmenu2x broswer, and usr/gp2x are in /ubifs. How can I make the "cd" command link to a folder on the SD card? Thanks for having a look at the other...

Well I tested all the emulators I've got and Snes9X4C crashes on closing every time. GnGeo and Gpsp seem to be okay now, they just send you back to the default menu. Picodrive actually sends you back to Gmenu2x, which is neat. If they can do it, maybe other programs can as well?

This thing is great! Only problem is it fairly often goes to a black screen when you close an emulator (especially the SNES and Neo Geo emulators) and you have to turn the machine off. But it's definitely a lot cooler looking and nicer to use than the original! Is there any way to move the top...

Seconded, scrolling through a bajillion games I don't have is kind of annoying!

Multiple directories would be a nice touch! It would also be nice if you could load a new rom without quitting the program, if that's possible.

Awww, pity about the sound (I don't know about anyone else, but I get almost no sound at all in most games and if I do get any, it's high-pitched beepy sound, as if only one audio layer is working), but I guess it's one of those things that takes time to figure out. The speed and graphics are...
