RECALBOX 4.1 DOWNLOAD DRIVER
it add instability in the fact that a working computer may not work in the next version if a bug were introduced in the driver of the next version. Until recalbox changes this base, all computer working with recalbox should continue to work with recalbox and a contrario, don't expect a not working computer working in a new version having the same base.īatocera regularly upgrades this base to keep up to date software. Recalbox (current stable) used the same buildroot version from a long time (i've not checked, but i guess it is december 2016 or around it while i did the migration when i were in the recalbox team). The philosophy of recalbox and batocera differs on that : In fact, our work is based on the work of the buildroot project. Nor batocera nor recalbox is working on computer gpu drivers. batocera is more a long term vision : a firmware bootable on a lot on device on which you've just to plug and one precision to explain maybe this point. but the software is not what batocera intends to be : user friendly, robust (on sd card and usb key, and more generally on embeded devices). yes, it's really more active and supports really more things. there are regular contributors, not just me.Ībout retropie. but today, batocera is really more active than recalbox when i were on it. i don't know the recalbox team of "today". on the other side, recent linux kernel supports more hardware and gpu.Ībout the team. this is because on recent linux kernel, intel give up a hack that handled a higher opengl version on this computer. an example : on acer aspire one computer, batocera doesn't support n64 while it does on recalbox. some user prefers recalbox, some other batocera mainly because they all don't get the same bugs. amiga of course if there and supported from the joystick on x86 and rpi. for example, i've added hotkeys for several consoles making it easier to save states, exit.
Some other difference it created over the time. and while it's on sd card and usb key and compressed (requiring less disk input/ouput) it's faster.įor the rest, batocera is based on more recent sofware, kodi linux kernel, emulators. on the contratry, the first feature which differed on recalbox, is that the batocera system is just a file equivalent to a firmware.

upgrades after upgrades your system because full of files that are not supposed to be there.
it's slow, but the most dangerous is that it's not robust at all.
RECALBOX 4.1 DOWNLOAD UPGRADE
when you upgrade recalbox, you unzip a file over this filesystem. Recalbox system is a standard file system. Let's take an example, the one refused by the recalbox team and which is at the start of the fork : batocera is more agile, regular version to fix more quickly or have user feedback more quickly. the philosophy of batocera is more long term, i'm ready to break things and take a risk to add bugs to make them working better. I've not followed recalbox from a long time, but as far i the git tells, the activity on the project is very low.
