Thanks for a current batocera guide! You earned a sub. I’m going to put this on a 5TB external HDD. Going to run this on my gaming PC and my incoming GPD Win Max 2
That's a very good guide! It's worth pointing out that not all Wi-Fi dongles work, so you need to check with a compatibility list. I've had no problems with getting Batocera to work with 2 x PCIe expansion cards to USB 3.0 for an additional 8 x USB 3.0 devices (gaming controllers and hard drives work), but will only boot into Batocera from the motherboard's USB port.
It's worth mentioning that when scraping it is best to have your room file names be "clean" (removing "USA!! V1.2" etc). This will get a far better coverage of your games as the scraper may not identify the game correctly. I think the alternative to this is to change the meta data for each individual game. Changing the actual file names is a far quicker process overall if you have thousands of ROMs.
@@aloobi It shouldn't make a difference as long as you don't have the file names too confusing so that the scraper doesn't recognise what it is you're scraping.
@@calebOllerton I searched inside of each folder for different variations and deleted the ones i didn't want. It was VERY time consuming. Or you can download "clean" romsets without duplicates and hacks.
I really wish Batocera would recognize multiple internal drives. I've got a 256gb ssd with Batocera and roms for older consoles, and a 500gb NVMe I had lying around that I installed in the PC with the intention of putting some larger game files on it (GameCube, PS2 etc). Batocera will recognize when I have an external HDD plugged in, and I can link the roms on that drive to the internal storage's 'share/roms' folder, and that works fine but then my mini PC has this extra appendage tethered to it. It would be nice if additional internal drives would show up in the file explorer. Bit of a bummer. Maybe a future update will fix this. Anyway, thanks for the vid :)
Batocera does recognise multiple internal hard drives you just need to format the second drive in Batoicera by using Main Menu > System Settings > Developer > Format a Disk. if you haven't already. Once the disk is formatted. Press F1 from the opening Batocera menu to bring up the file manager. On the left select places and you will see the new HDD. Default is Share (Batocera OS drive) and Share_1 etc for the newly formatted drive. I'm currently using a 1tb SATA SSD for Batocera OS and roms and a second 8tb SATA drive for more roms on a desktop computer. Both show up fine.
Great video as always. Ive got batocera on a hdd with games but i would like to copy the hdd to a ssd but im not confident enough to begin to know how and what to do it and what software to use as i don't want to mess it up. If you could would you do a easy to follow video on how to please.
This is a nice guide, but the title is misleading. Everything in the tutorial was pre-existing. Changing the theme isn't really "creating your own image". It should just be called "how to set up Batocera v__".
Do you prefer the rgb 10 max2 or the anbernic's in that same price point? I have the rgb 10 and the card I bought from you, but I wish I had a bigger screen, two thumbsticks, and a better ergonomic feel. Ali is selling the max2 for under 100$ with discount and anbernic has a summer sale going. What do you like better, your anbernic game cards or the pow kiddy max one? I'm assuming if I went the either way, I'd just purchase their lowest chip set option, and replace with yours. Thanks Chase!
I like the max and max 2. That's your best best for large screens. Anbernic has some good stuff too but their screens are usually smaller unless you go with the rg552 and that's a bigger jump in cost.
What GPU do you recommend to be able to play Switch, Xbox and PS2 games on the best? I'm looking into mini PCs for this and there's just so much to choose from.
I'm a big fan of NVidia myself I liek the GEFORCE options out there. You don't necessarily need one to play those games. PS2 you can make adjustments in your game settings to get through the games relatively well. Xbox isn't too demanding there's just a lot of emulation limits with that collection in general. Switch is going to be hit or miss depending on the game. I can get into some games on my Hp elitedesk while others need more than what is offered. What's your budget for a mini PC? I may be able to make some recommendations or at least give you some ideas. If interested shoot me an email on my website. Comments can often times get past me on here as I don't get notifications for each one anymore.
the KinHank 12tb plug & play video game drive. If I turn a mini gaming pc into a Batocera console. How would I get the drive to run they only give the install instructions for window's. I am unable to find anything on how to set it up and run it on a Batocera pc/console. Does that mean I have to have a windows pc and have Batocera on a flash drive?
I like Batocera more because it's much more user friendly and has much more to offer. Retropie in my opinion is s little more entry level. Less settings adjustments for emulators and really hard to navigate. You figure it out but it's not as easy to navigate as batocera is.
I've also used a Windows 10 Bootable usb stick (Hiren’s BootCD PE x64 ) and Roadkil's Disk Image 1.6 software. To successfully burn the downloaded Batocera IMG file to an internal HDD/SSD without having to remove it from the computer.
That's really convenient. I was just using a sata ssd enclosure to avoid having to remove and install ssds lately. That would be another approach to take to make things a bit easier.
I put it on a SanDisk USB drive. It's the same USB drive used by another Batocera video guide here on YT. Mine hang or screen freezes while playing games even on low end systems like the NES although it also like this on PS1 games and in times even on the main Batocera menu. I'm using an Acer Aspire ES13 laptop that is on Windows 10. This laptop can play the standalone Duck Station emulator for PS1 and run games no problem. Now I put RetroBat on my USB and it works fine. I'm just wondering why it hangs on Batocera.
I have a problem with controler. When i frist time start batocera, his connect and running normaly, but next time start to going crazy. In controller settings not recognize analog stics, its xbox 360 controller that i use. Im using Batocera on external SSD drive. Next thing, I tried to connect my computer with Tv, using hdmi cable from DP port (DP converter) to hdmi enter on my Tv so I can play a games on tv, but Batocera project freezing zooming picture from computer to Tv. Hdmi exit from my graphic card is directly connected with my hdmi input monitor, that is the reason why using DP port to connect with Tv. Is there any option to fix all this ??
So i followed the instructions but your screens didnt look like my screens and not all the options i saw for u i saw for me. Not sure if im downloading the right stuff. I only have option for x86_64 is that for windows? For the etcher i have option for installer and portable?
Hello great video! I have a legit question, the batocera image is installed on the 512 ssd and the batocera Bios on the Samsung USB , is the computer booting up from the USB or from the 512 ssd? Can it all be copied on 1 ssd? Thank you
i just have screenscraper fr to scrape on my ps4 build and it fails. i have a look now into files if it easy can be changed. any general tip? i saw some infos where 3 sources for scraping were available
I have installed batocera in a USB pendrive. Everything works fine when I plug it in an old Laptop, Asus VivoBook s550ca (i7 8GB RAM). I have used that same USB on another laptop an old HP 640 G1 (i5 8GB) and everything works fine too. My problems come when I plug the Batocera USB to a Gigabyte Aero 15 (i7 64GB RAM). Batocera loads perfectly, but when I connect the game pads, it starts looping on loading collections. No matter what theme I have configured. It happens with an XBOX One controller and with two Moga controllers, conecting via USB or Bluetooth. I have also configured batocera on a pendrive for it to install itself on the Gigabyte Aero, just in case it was a problem due to incompatibilities with the hw of the other computers but I just get the same problem. Any ideas what could be the sollution? How can I debbug it?
Hi im having performance problems while using kodi video seem to skip realy bad iv got rtx2080 32gbram i7 9700k its not specs as they run fine on normal kodi. Do i need to to install batocera games on a seperate drive or the same drive as the boot files to boost performance. Any video player apps to play 4k files good
Hi. I'm having a problem was hoping you could help. I'm a real novice so hopefully i explain myself lol. I'm using my daughters old windows 8.1 pc. I. Insert 128gb usb stick. As soon as i add v 35 it makes my usb stick only 6gb. I've tried a 512gb stick and it does the same thing. If You have any suggestions. It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
This is normal and part of the flashing process. The 6gb is the boot partition in fat32. The rest of the storage is expanded on first boot into Batocera and its in ext4 format which windows cannot access without special software like Disk Genius To transfer roms its easiest to boot Batocera, press F1 on your keyboard to bring up the file manager,locate where your roms are (say you have them attached with a usb drive or portable hdd) and copy/paste them over to the appropriate rom folders. As well as any bios files needed as covered by this video.
By the way.... Does Batocera net connections work on landline? I´m not so keen to destroy my health with a Wi-Fi-connection. It also gives me straight PAIN as headache and such...
@@OfficialChaseBrogan Thank you! Now I also have a problem with my Win7 64bit system to make Balena Etcher work. It gives me only white box when I open it and I can´t make that program to do anything because there´s nothing to select anywhere...

I getting a batocera build on a sd card with games on it and how hard is that getting more new games added on the batocera build sd card for steam deck and I been trying emulator only for 5 week
i have a good pc and bought a usb stick wich is fast extra for batocera and psp games crash every time and when i want to copy my roms it is for some seconds fast and then it just stops and its extremley slow. What can I do?
Dude I have a 256gb SSD and 2tb hdd if I do partition my 2tb into 2disk and and does batocera show my 2tb hardisk to Store my roms in that pls reply im w8inh
My batocera disk is bugged to hell. It manages to change time in windows -1 hour no matter the batocera settings i pick and this happens only if i used batocera , of the 84 systems it "forgot" that 18 systems are there too, 1 console has no picture anymore, while scrolling the games list it tends to make a shorter list of its own without me asking for it and some systems dont work even if i add the right roms to it. So now i get to backup all 1.66tb of game roms to a other disk and reinstall batocera right?
I downloaded a batocera image from arcadepunks released from boredgamedad. There was the main image (1tb) and a update image that fixed a load of problems with the release. Would I have to flash the drive twice? 1st time with the main image and then a second time to install updates? Plus was thinking of duelbooting batocera and windows by partitioning my main drive, is it safe flashing the partitioned drive?
I need help I have powered USB hub I can't boot batocera when I connect my HDD through USB hub but I can boot it when I connect HDD directly with laptop I to connect it through USB hub so that I can connect controller also
How can you do this stuff without internet? every version of batocera will not see my wifi...36 will see it and will not connect...i live in a HMO here so i have no access to a ethernet connection.
Intel NUC is just a normal x86 desktop that's very very small. Almost the size of a Raspberry Pi. Nothing special about it except the size. Biggest limitation is unless your tech savy, get some custom hardware, and know what you're doing, you're not going to install a graphics card. What CPU and graphics you have on a NUC is what you get. Best thing to do is to make sure you have 2 sticks of RAM in it so your graphics hardware can go faster.
it will work. it is the same image. the 3 links mac,pc,nuc were added instead of just one to avoid question from people having mac and nuc asking which image they should download.
I have a 32gb SanDisk USB stick that installs Batocera v35 fine, but when I try to install Batocera v35 using etcher on anything that's bigger than 32gb, I always get a flash failed using etcher.
To record batocera without programs. 1. 7zip 2. extract the .rar image from batocera. 3. extract the iso from Batocera 4. extract the iso 0.vfat 5. Copy and paste all files to FAT32 compatible for Batocera installation. End. ;)
I need help everytime I try and load onto batocera the loading screen is laggy and after the batocera splash screen is done loading it makes my screen go black and I cant do anything im using v36
I followed your instructions and now when I try to boot up in removable drive it says invalid signature and wont let me what am I doing wrong please help thanks
ok buddy I got it reinstalled and I did disable the secure boot and it boots up just fine now 😀 so now I got to get it set up to my liking but I do see I will love it already thanks for your help if I have anymore issues I let you know if need more help
none of this has anything to do with creating a build from scratch. this is just a howto for installing batocera. nothing here involved buildroot or pulling packages or anything like that. the image used here was already built.
Right that's how you create your batocera setup. Start with a batocera version add the games/collections you want. Add a theme. You customize it as you go.
Amazon is flooded with fake hard drives, I dont know what it was like 2 years ago when this was made, but even buying samsung you gotta make sure youre buying from samsung or another reputable seller. There are more fake drives than real ones on amazon unfortunately. Either only a fraction of the storage (1 tb drive is actually 32gb for example, even though your computer "thinks" its 1tb. It just cobtinually overwrites the oldest data once the card limit is reached), or falsely advertised as 3.2, 3.1, or 3.0 usb when in reality its 2.0, the list goes on. And when you get drive like that, you have NO IDEA what may be pre-installed on tbe drive, it could easily have badUSB installed and run a script without you even knowing it.

If you scrape games individually then you have a better chance of getting video files for the preview. You don't have to use screen grabber.
Yep that's correct you can manual select from the options that way or search for them.

How do you add emulation to the settings what I meant to say it how do you add emulation to the build

Is batecera running on windows or Linux?
Linux
I have a 32gb SanDisk USB stick that installs Batocera v35 fine, but when I try to install Batocera v35 using etcher on anything that's bigger than 32gb, I always get a flash failed using etcher.
Try using Rufus or Gui format to format the USB to fat 32 ... This should help I suggest you load games from an external drive however.
How can you add emulator for Nintendo switch on Batocera?
i am guessing that Switch emulation isn't possible yet for Batocera
I believe there is but I think there are some limitations still as it's very new. Haven't done anything with that myself yet.
Now it's possible. I've already added Switch to Batocera
@@edwinyulianto3660 ok i'll see if Batocera updates and allows that
@@cydragon2.099 Not available of Batocera Official, but you you can find tons of tutorials on how to do it
Can I add that program to an se card
To record batocera without programs.
1. 7zip
2. extract the .rar image from batocera.
3. extract the iso from Batocera
4. extract the iso 0.vfat
5. Copy and paste all files to FAT32 compatible for Batocera installation. End. ;)

Still waiting for your 512gb image... Got a link? 😉
The steam deck one will be on arcade punks. The pc one isn't going to be available for download as I can't get it read/backed up on pc.
@@OfficialChaseBrogan Yes I got a member login there just to download your image. Hope to see it posted soon!
My flash drive won't boot batocera at all I just get a black screen right after it says batocera
Probably corrupt
@@OfficialChaseBrogan how would I fix that?
none of this has anything to do with creating a build from scratch. this is just a howto for installing batocera. nothing here involved buildroot or pulling packages or anything like that. the image used here was already built.
It's Batocera so you start with a Batocera image (version 35 here) and build it up from there with what games and game collections you want to have.
I dont get how this is creating a batocera image? Its a guide on how to install and add stuff like games and bios
Right that's how you create your batocera setup. Start with a batocera version add the games/collections you want. Add a theme. You customize it as you go.
Amazon is flooded with fake hard drives, I dont know what it was like 2 years ago when this was made, but even buying samsung you gotta make sure youre buying from samsung or another reputable seller. There are more fake drives than real ones on amazon unfortunately. Either only a fraction of the storage (1 tb drive is actually 32gb for example, even though your computer "thinks" its 1tb. It just cobtinually overwrites the oldest data once the card limit is reached), or falsely advertised as 3.2, 3.1, or 3.0 usb when in reality its 2.0, the list goes on. And when you get drive like that, you have NO IDEA what may be pre-installed on tbe drive, it could easily have badUSB installed and run a script without you even knowing it.
This is identical to emuelec.
this isnt building an image. this is writing an image.
It is so bad i have only 4 emulator on batocera secreen. In youtu.be meny emulator on secreen bro...
Add ROM files for different emulators and refresh roms in batocera settings. And you will see those emulators apear in user interface.
