Hi all,

I just picked up a 2nd hand GP2X 200, I have read through a lot of forum posts and the readme's with the apps but I'm having a couple of problems with some emulators.

I have installed Gngeo2x and it works great except I cant seem to quit back to GP2x menu, or quit a game to choose a new rom. If i press L+R+Select or L+R+Home I can get to the quit game option but if i select it the emulator just hangs. I seem to have to turn the console off every time I want to change rom or get back to the main menu to choose a different emu which is annoying. Am I doing something wrong or is this normal? Also seem to have trouble quiting out of FBA2X without it hanging

I'm also having trouble with the amiga emulator - I have it working with kick boot and can load and run roms but can't start any game (i get to the menu screen) as I cant work out the key config, and am getting confused with the moue/keyboard toggle. I've read the readme which has got me this far but it's not idiot proof and doesnt explain how to start a game from its menu!

Other than that I have Snes/PC Engine and Gensis roms running great.

Also what movie formats are supported - just divx/xvid or does it now support mpeg/wmv etc..?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 
In gngeo (and maybe fba2x, can't remember), activate "autoreload gui" and there you are.

No help with the other questions, sorry :(
 
juanvvc got it right with the autoreload option. Common issue.

I have my games uncompressed in a subdirectory called disks. I load the adf with "select image" then select "Run." During game screens I select joystick for moves and fire. For input I select the onscreen keyboard.

The website says it supports MP4,XVid, and DivX. I'm unaware of MPEG/WMV support unless another movie player is ported with those features.

Thanks for your help, now have neo geo working great. Thanks. As for the AMiga eulator, i can get my files loaded and select joypad but nce a game is at the start or select cheat screen no controls seem to respond so i dont get any further. Assume i'm missing something obvious on this one.
 
Sorry guys, can you tell me where the 'autoreload gui' option is for the gneogeo emulator? I had a look today but I can't find it, and I don't like having to power off my machine every time I want to switch games.

While in Rage2x, press SELECT to go to the Settings menu; you can find it in there. After you enable it, select Save All Settings.

Post the Title and I'll try to start it as well.

It seems to be anything that starts on a cheat screen (infinite lives etc..), this seem to be most I've tried! Buggy Boy goes straight to the game menu and works fine but games like Alien 3 and Chase HQ where the game loads to a Flashtro screen are the ones i can get a response from.
