First GBZ finally done!
Posted: Tue Jun 11, 2019 8:04 pm
My first gbz build is finally done and I can't thank this forum enough for the help!
everything works well but there is no safe shutdown or battery monitor
and I was pretty unhappy with my dremel job on the shell so my second build will have safe shutdown, battery monitor and I'll use a 3d printed stencil for a better dremel job! (also is it possible yo use Arduino pro micro as a battery monitor?)
There's also a pop with the speaker when the device turns on but I can live with it.
Another note :
Chiz's guide did not work for me with USB audio (I'm on retropie 4.4)
in his guide he tells you to go to here
and add the following lines
this did not work for me
What I had to do to get my usb audio working was to go here
and replaced the following
with
and then I went to to adjust the volume and everything worked well
I hope you guys enjoy my first build
