It looks like all the RetroPie images moved under arcade punks.

The 3B+ is slightly different from the 3B so one of the images that said it would work for 3B didn't work for me.

So here's the steps to get it working...

Get the stock RetroPie Image from Raspberry Pi Imager. Note the new version doesn't let you drop in the wifi info on install which is kind of annoying and makes the initially ssh setup harder.

Install to the sd card.

Omen 15 Laptop Problem, R key, X key not working, intermittent

Well Internet, this still doesn't work permanently..

It works for an hour, and then it doesn't. I am now buying a replacement keyboard off ebay and going to install it in a bit.

It's a hardware grounding issue... as far as I can tell. And turning off features of battery management or usb devices using power or other related issues makes it better for a while, same with typing e a few times or z a few times will make the r or x key work temporarilly, but it's not permanent.

UPDATE

After installing the new keyboard (which took a couple of hours), it is working nicely and there have been zero issues after a few months. Note, that installing the keyboard did require clipping off some melted plastic bits holding the old keyboard up a tad. The first week was weird thinking the new keyboard was slightly sunken... but this is a non-issue compared to losing the r and x keys.

omxplayer rpi 3b+ bullseye libavcodec57 libavcodec58 emulationstation kodi

Raspbian doesn't like omxplayer any more since bullseye

Because Raspbian doesn't like omxplayer, they took it out of its repos, but it is still required by emulationstation and kodi and others.

Raspbian says to use VLC, but the documentation or the fixes to start using VLC aren't visible right now.

Here's how to go backwards and get a compatable version of omxplayer installed as of 2024Q1.
