Retroarch Atari 5200

[Briantodd]

I am having difficulty with Atari5200 with Retroarch

When Launchbox installs the new Retroarch 1.13.0, the emulator Atari800 that is used with 5200 ROMS comes up with an error message halting the emulation of Atari 800

When Retroarch is installed as standalone, the same error message is seen

When a5200 core is used with 5200 roms, background noise becomes an issue

Is there a preferred emulator for Atari5200 via Retroarch

Did you check the Libretro docs page for setting up the core ? Do you have the required bios ?

The Atari 800 core is the only one for the 5200 but I recommend using Kat5200 which is a stand alone and is the easiest 5200 emulator to get setup IMHO. Altirra is also a great choice but a bit more finnicky to set up.
