Depends what part you want the most :
- 31kHz boot : that's rather at installation, but choosing the video resolution could work, I haven't tried
- usb automount : can be added manually
- new update menu : you'd need to (manually) update gasetup, it takes 1 command
- bug fixes : they are all over the place

Hey Substring,
I'm having problems running choplifter (rom choplift) with your 2020.06 release. When the guys say "thank you" at being picked up by the chopper, the game slows right down like the speech is causing it to pause. This seems to be the only game I've come across that does this.
I'd like to get a groovymame log, but not sure how to do that on your collab release of grroovyarcade. If I exit to command prompt and try running "groovymame choplift > choplift.txt" from there I just get a Segmentation fault.
Substring:
To make a REAL log :
in AM, press TAB > EMulators > MAME, edit "Command Arguments" and append -v so it should look like "groovymame arcade [name] -v"
The log is in /home/arcade/shared/logs/mame.log
Jimbo:
Thanks substring, have submitted a report in the appropriate thread.
I wonder if you could help me with something else. I'm trying to get my groovyarcade setup to write the mame highscore files out to a mounted usb flash drive on shutdown (as an ongoing backup), but I can't get it to work.
First I got the drive to mount on boot up, which seems to work fine, by adding the following line to /etc/fstab: -
--- Code: ---UUID=7593-B46C /media auto nosuid,nodev,nofail 0 0
--- End code ---
Then I added the following file "/usr/lib/systemd/system-shutdown/hiscores.shutdown" and chmod +x'd it, and set its contents to: -
--- Code: ---#!/bin/sh
sudo cp /home/arcade/shared/configs/mame/hi/*.* /media
--- End code ---
Nothing seems to be written to the mounted partition on shutdown though. It works if I call the command directly from shell.
Anything you can suggest? Thanks

Make a logfile as well, this would help to debug what's wrong
