Dont suppose you have powered it up yet mate? Gonna email the manual tomorrow to you.If you do power it up, you need to shut it down properly by clicking the Desktop MENU button and follow shutdown options. Can just pull plug but not ideal.
No back in it's box for a fee weeks
Heres the link to the first video. There are 4 at the moment but will do some more soon

, looks like you've made a solid product.
Embedded that for you mark. Wilk watch later
Agreed with earlier comments, very clear and concise and obviously very knowledgable on the device.
The whole power down thing for RPi's is a pain alright. I can see why you dont have a power button.
SD cards will get corrupted, etc etc
I did see a video of a guy shutting down correctly with GPIO pins, but you are probably using them already.
Look forward to more.
P.s. I've Been calling you Andrew because of your username, apologies Mark.

Cheers Eric. Just putting one up on the probe atm. Going to try and cover all points about it but videos are only 10mins max as camera wont do more.
Hi Smarty hopefully next videos im putting up will show more of it for you and Im now taking orders for the next batch if interested. All the first batch have sold.

Very natural Mark. When you actually know what you are talking about, just being yourself makes the videos very watchable

Beware the Hillman
loving the videos
btw the pi has a reset port that you could wire up if you wanted to
i think there should b a wikli and github for this so everyone stays consistent with there testers
this has so much potential
does the compare run from the MAME.exe (mame.exe -romident /rom.bin) if it does you wouldn't need to ever add any if there was a miss match just consistently change the mame.exe and if it mates then is a good rom if it does not match then the rom is bad. rather than one that's not in your list
i'm sure i will have more q's to ask later

I have used a GPIO pin on the pi to reset the arduino as when using the internal serial link, a reset is not done unlike when you use the USB port. Spent lots of time on the reset side of things so the tester will boot reliably ever time.
The mame files are taken from a typical mame/roms directory on a PC. Store all files in the mame folder on the pi and run a separate program which will create a txt file with names etc in plus CRC32 values. The tester refers to this for checking. If you want to add an unknown rom then new ones are appended to the file. If a newer mame/rom list is used than what I supply, then the process needs done again. Think theres currently about 2000 plus files it will check. Does it in less than 1 sec

I'm thinking of moving this to the Tech maintenance and repair thread, what do you think? it will get lost in general discussion
