hi just a quick one i have found the little black and red scandisk usbs work but now i have put autobleem on the 64 stick and i have 2 ps classic consoles and it works on one and not the other any ideas thanks in advance.
Yes, best sticks to buy probably are Sandisk Cruzer Fit (USB 2.0) at the moment. They are cheap, tiny, and work flawlessly.
But then I also bought a SanDisk Ultra Fit 128 GB (USB 3.1), and it works as well. At least with Retroboot. (Stand alone package to get retroarch booting on the PS Classic - has nothing to do with Bleemsync or Autobleem.)
I had it not work for a few boot attempts (from about 100 I've surely done so far) once, and let the device sit unplugged for a while, wile I did a Windows Checkdisk (no errors found), and then it worked for the next 20 attempts again. I also had a scare with maybe file corruption on the stick once (some playlist files suddenly became 1k without content), but that could also be something I've done with a MacOS editor which might have auto saved - so I currently dont know. Apart from that I'm using the stick without issues.
Well - Retroarch crashes regularely - if I stress it, but that could be multiple factors as well (cores not optimized, me using an older binary, ...). Retroreboot tries to reboot Retroarch, when it detects, that its not running anymore - so its been bareable.
Oh, and I'm doing all this, while having an 8bitdo wireless receiver attached at port 1. So thats not an issue (apart from during the bootup process - see first posting. ).
Without modification you cant. (Bleemsync is working on a kernel to restore the data lane to the back USB port, that doesnt have that limitation.)
The thing is, that you are playing around the margins of your UBS 3.0 (/3.1) stick dealing with basically brownouts.
And so far I've had more success than I'd thought I have, using that specific USB 3.1 stick I mentioned.
I had it in use for about 4 weeks now, and I'm not scared of dataloss. I've even begun to start to work on a "several fullsets" collection on it (3 hours of regex parsing per set, to only have the files in there I want.. ).
Its fine.
But then I dont use Bleemsync, which might play into it as well. Not certain. It shouldnt, but it might.
No - I'm sett so far.
I use xpandr

for expanding the PC Classic carousel on one usb stick i have, and
and Retroboot

(Boots Retroarch, has a few interesting modifications, that make it more stable and interesting.)
on the other.
xpandr is great, because, it allows me to add games by simply modifying folders, the database file then gets created on boot. Which means I can do it on different OSes, and with some commandline magic, it simply suits me. Dont need a GUI for that, dont need a "web service" like Bleemsync insists on providing..
Codewise, I'm running KMFDManics Retroarch cores on Reroboot, which are probably the best optimized at the moment.
Oh - and team bleemsyncs response to the "mouse cursor shows up on screen with 8bitdo dongle"? Not our department - wont even look into it. Of course. And some snippy comment about "buy 2 USD bluetooth dongle instead" (8bitdo emulates different input schemes and has the benefit of also having somewhat optimized stick sensitivity already in the hardware layer. It is 14 USD at the moment. Many people with PS Classics bough them -- leave it to the Bleemsync team again to not care and do nothing.
*grmpgh* (I'm just bashing for bashings sake... )
Now Retroboot has XInput support. If done properly, that solves it.
