Video Backend

[MorganIV]

I tried on my pc (the specs are the ones in my profile) to play Super Mario Galaxy trying all the supported graphics engine but dolphin 4.0 always stops before the game even starts, giving me all the time the "Backend error". So I searched on internet for a solution and I discovered that perhaps it was a problem of the iso file.
To be sure I tried the same file with the same version of dolphin on a pretty old mac and there the game works just fine!
I don't know how to solve this awful problem.

Thank you in advance for the help,
Morgan

Do you have a log of the error? Go to your Documents folder (or whereever your configuration file points to.). Inside of the Dolphin folder, open the logs folder. Attach the dolphin.log file into your reply and post. This should help the devs and staff figure out the issue.

Try using the latest development version instead of 4.0.

Actually, did you follow Jos' Advice?

I tried the 5.0-rc version but it doesn't work either

That's not the latest development release. We don't even show the 5.0 RCs anymore. Where are you downloading?

I find it amazing that people always manage to download and use old builds, even when they are not listed anymore…

Sorry I didn't know, I found it here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/dev/837cbfa4e355f8fed53cf4ff1171197ee05a2100/

How did you get to that link though? It's not listed anywhere on the Downloads main page anymore.
