8trek Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 Prior to recent updating of win10 and latest PX everything worked great. Now having an issue with my real dmd (PinDMD2 NOT PIN2DMD). Works fine when inside game it’s just when browsing inside PX either get nothing or if I grab the video files for real DMD inside game manager I get the video. I’d like to have the real thing like before when it reads from the rom (at least that’s my understanding of how it works). I read somewhere to copy the correct .dll’s for your dmd and paste in PX root folder and tried that… still no go. I also seem to recall years ago when I had this working it had something to do with selecting the ROM button for each game in game manager but that doesn’t seem to help now either. Actually I'm not really sure what the ROM button even does inside the manager. Any help would be appreciated much. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Please attach copies of your pinballx.ini and log.txt files when requesting assistance for an issue. Also a copy of your one of your xml files for the tables impacted may be helpful on seeing the table settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_da_Spike Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Also provide your pindmd_log.txt from the pinballx directory and the xdmdlog.txt from the log directory Check if your pindmd.ini in your pinballx directory is setup correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same issue, just go back to an earlier version of pinballx for the moment. 3.75 works for me. Tom said he will take a look soon.

Draco1962 Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 A word of caution. Your issue may not be the same as someone else's. Going back a vetsion may help short term, but without the support files and working through the issue, will definitely make the fix take longer.

8trek Posted June 29, 2020 Author Share Posted June 29, 2020 Here ya go... i can't find a pindmd_log.txt or pindmd.ini file. Also, what is the rom button inside the game manager for? Some of my tables have it selected and many do not. Thanks! PinballX.ini log.txt XDMDlog.txt Visual Pinball.xml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's if you want to use the actual pinmame rom in the pinballx rather than video/image for the dmd. You'd have to set the use pinmame in front end option in settings too. That's what i believe anyway, i've always used dmd videos in the front end so might not be totally correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is correct although there is a bug with versions somewhere past 3.75 that this functionality stopped working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
