1st things first : no idea how freesync will behave with Linux. But AMD docs specify how one can reach that. The best is probably to remotely do this through SSH while the front end is running.
I'd be quite interested in the results of the various commands you're supposed to run to check and/or enable.
By the way, Calamity added a low input lag in MAME since 0.217 iirc that can be activated with -lowlatency on command line. Works best with VRR monitors.

thanks for the input. i researched your link and it looks like that amd is at the moment only supporting freesync with displayport. my monitor only has a HDMI port :hissy: will try groovyarcade anyway...curious to see what you guys allready archived.

You really need a 15-kHz set-up to properly play some of the best action games for WIN (much like you need another for 31-kHz, but I'll stop there), not to mention some key emulators MAME just can't compete with at the moment and have no LX version (how's Retro Arch on LX?). So there's no point (for now, at least) in messing also with LX for anyone interested in this stuff (and I really see no reason for not being interested if you are in MAME, but maybe that's just me).

Off topic.
Can you write game title's? :o
I purpose new topic about CRT Emudriver compatible and non emulated games at low freqs (240p imho).
Thx!

Interestingly enough, most (all? I haven't tested them all) of these games shown are very easy to run on Linux using Proton or Wine with virtually no performance hit, and they should run 15khz no problem too. I'm still dragging my heels on a proper Radeon but there's absolutely no reason these shouldn't work in Linux.

Just wanted to say thanks for this build. I'm currently trying to get this to work in an arcade cab.
The 2020.1 build works awesomely with LCD screens. Currently have it in my arcade1up cab, installed on an Intel cpu / AMD gpu PC, only running MAME. I tried with the crt cab, but couldn't get it working out of the box. 2020.2, however, does show signs of progress. I'm able to get to the frontend, everything looks good. But when i launch a game in MAME, it just goes to black screen. Probably a resolution error on my part. Haven't had a lot of time lately to check my settings. One thing that did break (at least on the three systems I've installed 2020.2 on ) is the history.dat plugin. Can't get scores to save at the moment. I'm not looking for a fix or anything, just thought I'd let you know, since it did work in the previous build.
Again, thanks for the images. I hope you continue to develop this project. I'm not a linux zealot/windows hater, but I love having a purpose built image that boots right into what I want and not have to spend time ripping out GUI's and dealing with licenses.
Another wish I have is better wifi support. That seems to be an Arch Linux/adapter issue though. I can get mine to work, but it won't configure with gasetup. Need to enable it via the shell.
Cheers!
