General / Re: Attract mode does not start

« on: February 15, 2021, 04:52:10 PM »

It's a known issue with 64bit version of nvapi. Attract Mode is unable to create an nvidia driver profile on some nvidia driver-gpu combinations. The only workaround at the moment is to launch 32 bit version of Attract Mode so the profile is created, then you can use the 64 bit version. It started happening after one of the driver updates. I was unfortunately not able to reproduce this on my machine.

If you could find that update script and if it compiles SFML from source all you need to do is to change the github.com/mickelson/sfml-pi to github.com/oomek/sfml-pi until it gets merged

Yes, you just change mickelson to oomek. Just make sure the SFML build folder is empty before rebuilding a new version. You do not need to rebuild ffmpeg

It's the current Mickelson's master branch updated to 2.5.1 so yes just USE_DRM as before

Hi, I've finally synchronized my SFML-PI 2.5.1 X11 branch with Mickelson's 2.4.0 X11/KMS
Before I create a pull request would you please try it under X11 and KMS on PI3 and PI4 and report any problems here, or on Github?
Thanks.

UPDATE:
It has been merged by Andrew on 25/09/2020. Thanks for your tests.

Scripting / Re: bg, video stuttering Q:

Unfortunately artwork reloading is still blocking operation, so if it takes longer than 16ms to load new artwork files the screen update will be stalled, that includes static video redraw.

I'm making some minor changes to the layout:

1. I've decided to scrap logos and use current Display's Name, so you don't have to bother making logos.
2. Some roundness added
3. Some margin changes of elements.



Use a poll on top of the page to vote.

Multi resolution scaling is 50% done btw.

Code: [Select]

case "left":
fe.signal( "prev_game" )
return true

case "right":
fe.signal( "next_game" )
return true
These lines are commented for a reason. Current Attract Mode v2.6.0 has a bug and it's causing errors in Ambience and broken navigation. Check the AM log.

It has been fixed recently in the commit below:
https://github.com/mickelson/attract/commit/a45bff88e413e81ee8c38ff3e48fd3c7b0c74aae

So unless you're compiling Attract Mode from source with that commit included DO NOT uncomment those lines, but remap your actions in Controls as advised.
