Not sure if my below post regarding audio was lost in the sea of
replies, however I am having major audio stuttering and static
issues as well as not sure where to actually add keyboard inputs for
various controls of the roms.
Thanks

*Subject:*Re: [blind-gamers] RetroArch accessibility & Windows10
Retroarch allows one to use many different emulators in a unified,
and now accessible, way. For general info, see
https://www.retroarch.com <https://www.retroarch.com/>. For the
accessibility part, see
https://www.libretro.com/index.php/retroarch-1-8-2-coming-soon-accessibility-features-for-blind-people/.
It does take some setting up, but that only took me a good 20
minutes to configure the Xbox controller, AI service key, and get a
game up and going. Emulators themselves in Retroarch can be
downloaded from the online updater, in the “update cores” section,
where you’ll find a List of systems to get. Then, load your game
from the “load content section from the main menu.

Is Retroarch a emulator? Where can I find info on this?

Also, make sure you go to online updater, then Core updater,
and press Enter on the core for the system you want, like
Sony PSP: PPSSPP, to get it. Then you can load the game for it.

I have two Roms. One is dissidia_-_final_fantasy.
The other is a Mortal Kombat game, Mortal Kombat -
Shaolin Monks. both are Iso files, but i believe one
is a Playstation 2 and the other may be Playstation PSP.
I will try and load them and see what happens.

You simply load the ROM file. For example, if
the game is Mortal Kombat, on a Nintendo 64, the
file might be called mortal kombat.Z64. If it
were a PSP game, it’d be Mortal Kombat.iso. So,
just find what the ROM is called in file
explorer, and load that. If the ROM has many
files, like the Play Station games, load the
.cue file. What game for what system are you
trying to load?

Once the Rom has been extracted, which file

however?
This is where a beginners or newbies
tutorial would be so nice.

Okay, so for where to put ROMs, you can put them
anywhere, just find that location when you “load content” which is how you load
games. Once you load it for the first time, though, you can arrow left and
you’ll find the recent games in the “horizontal menu.
For OCR, you must set up the AI service, and set a
key, or game controller press of a button or multiple buttons, to activate it.
It is similar to OCR in screen readers.

Is accessibility mode supposed to read the game
menus? Or do you have to configure that AI mode.

Hi,
When I installed Retroarch, I pressed
Alt+Enter on the desktop shortcut
that was created. Then, in the target
box, I added the word
--accessibility to the end of the
target path. This worked for me.
The OCR seems to be in real time.
I could use a lot of advice though on
how to install and/or load Rom's,
etc. since perhaps Roms is a bit of a
touchy subject, If anyone can
maybe guide me through this off list,
it would be great? Folks can
contact me at:

I think an absolute beginners tutorial
or podcast specifically devoted
to those of us using Accessibility,
maybe taking a person through the
initial install, configuration, and
installing and running a Rom would
be a nice thing to have? Especially
since this is very new for many of us.

Do the ocr work in real time? Or is
it like the screen reader ocr?
