Zaparoo Frontend v2.2.1 and Core v2.22.1 fix the countdown that runs after you quit a game from a deck on MiSTer, along with two smaller Frontend fixes.

Thanks to n00dlez for reporting these issues.

Download and update​

Frontend v2.2.1 Core v2.22.1

On MiSTer, run Update All to update Frontend and Core together. If you update by hand, update both, since the countdown fix needs the two of them.

Fixes​

  • The countdown after quitting a deck game waits for you. Frontend takes a moment to come back after a game closes, and the countdown to the next game could run out, or be cancelled by a button press, before its picker was on screen. Core now holds the countdown until the picker appears, then gives it the full time. A button press no longer cancels it, so pick Play now or Stop playlist, or let it run out.
  • Background image has a None option. Settings > Appearance > Background image is now a choice between None and Custom image. Custom image opens the file browser, and an Image row changes the picture once one is set. See Background.
  • The screensaver stays off while a picker or confirmation is open, and its timer starts over once you close it.
