Hello,

I added manuals and images to the 5200 ultimate sd card. However, when I press 3 to view the manual, it acts like 3 is double pressed. It doesn't happen on the beef drop txt file, but does on most others I've tried.

Has anybody seen this?

BTW, I dont think its anything to do with the controller contacts or is a controller issue.

Thanks in advance!

Here is a video to demonstrate the issue I'm having:

Has anybody seen this?

-Looking at some screenshots and manuals, like Beef Drop, works fine every time.
-Looking at other screenshots and manuals, like Astro Chase or Ballblazer, always behaves like the keypad is double pressed.

Hopeful to get a clue from somebody here, thanks in advance!!!

Looking at your video, did you notice that you have both .a52 and .bin ROMs for the same Game in the same folder?
Whereas Beef Drop is a single ROM?
I suspect the menu system is getting confused when there are 2 of them.
Try deleting the .a52 ROMs from the folders and see if that fixes it.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I did try having a directory with only one file, went with the a52 and just bin. Still has the issue, but not every time. The video shows intermittent issues.

I had reported a similar issue with the 2011 firmware.
The patch I received in 2015 seemed to fix that 1,3,5 key problem but broke something else,
so I backed out and just kept the original firmware.

I sent an email to the admin to see if there is a newer firmware to fix the problem.
Let's see.

Thank you!

I ran some tests on the 2011-01-15 firmware for the Atari 5200 Multicart and confirm the bug reported by notwork
on the AtariMax forum "Manual (3) and Images (1) key double presses"
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=4325
is the same bug I reported back in 2011.

If memory serves, we tried a patch in 2015 which seemed to fix the 1,3,5 button issue, but broke something else
so it was backed it out.

Can you take a look at this again?
thx
