New Libretro Atari 800 core (lr-atari800): Compiling from source

[retoxdafreak]

Hi there,

yesterday I compiled the new version and noticed a strange behaviour of the ATARI 800 libretro port. It seems that this version runs at "full speed" (the sound is running much faster) it's almost impossible to make changes entering with F1 (on the physical keyboard) into the emulator menu. The game speed itself seems normal. I'm also not able to change the system to PAL. Display color changes are saved (Presets) but the PAL switch is not alterable (Is there a difference between TV and monitor mode?). Onscreen game speed always only shows "0%". (I even directly edited the atari800.cfg file manually).

This is only a request of mine: Would it be possible to program joystick switches in order to enter the Emulator setup and putting SELECT, OPTION and START on the controller, too? I mean it's nice to leave the emulator with the Hotbutton + START, but for entering a game you need to use the keyboard in most of the titles (F2 for OPTION, F3 for SELECT and F4 for START).

By the way, great work and big thanks to all associated programmers ...

Best wishes, retoxdafreak
