#MAC EMULATOR RETOPIE MAC#

There may be a command for forcing MAME to open in a window on the Mac, but I havenвЂ™t found it yet.

#MAC EMULATOR RETOPIE MAC#

This meant I needed another option, and while I played with a couple of Mac options like ChoccyHobnob, I knew they wouldnвЂ™t work for me because I wanted to run MAME in a separate window and these options were all command line which took over my screen when played. I think Atari 5200 is next for me рџ™‚ If you are interested, this guide was quite useful in getting me up and running with openEMU: вЂњRunning the MAME Arcade Emulator on Mac OSX.вЂќД«ut there was one issue with OpenEMU, at least for the Mac, that led me down the RetroPie path: MAME roms (or the classic arcade games that Reclaim Arcade is all about) were not stable. ItвЂ™s nice because I can emulate just about any game on any old school console. I found them and then went on a search for the best emulator out there now, and that is how I discovered OpenEMU. This led me to digging up a bunch of roms I had for the z26 Atari emulator on an old storage disk. It was fun, and while there are some good games on the Flashback-Adventure, Asteroids, Haunted House, etc.-I quickly wanted access to a number of other Atari games I had as a kid (not to mention the 150+ we have at Reclaim Video in Freddy). It worked, I could pull in the Atari Flashback and both play and stream it fullscreen from a second monitor. It was a quick way to test if I could use the Elgato video capture card I had purchased for archiving VHS tapes to bring in the card as an input for OBS on ds106tv. The discovery of OpenEMU was born of my small experiments on to create a living room like space wherein I play some old school Atari 2600 games on the Atari Flashback I picked up at Christmas a few years back. I figure I might need something to reference 10 years from now when I decide to get into classic game emulation yet again рџ™‚ So, IвЂ™ll use this post as a way to collect some of my links and learning thus far to try and capture the road that got me here as the trees of memory already begin to blur the path.

I am quickly realizing why ds106radio and ds106tv is good for me, it pushes me to go down rabbit holes I never even dreamed existed. Update: Thanks to TimвЂ™s comment I was able to find a solution that will actually work and is significantly cheaper for capturing the Retropie output on the Mac for streaming.
