If you can't change cores for MAME then how do you get other versions of MAME?
Of those, JELOS has the most MAME cores available: MAME2000 MAME2003(-plus) MAME2010 MAME2015 MAME (current) (which is pulled from the Libretro/Retroarch build, whose GitHub commit history indicates is up to MAME ver.251 as of this post)

How is the MAME core?
The MAME bug is explained at https://github.com/libretro/mame/issues/261, FBNeo is working as expected by retroarch.

Core Options / Main CPU Overclock
This core option was added in mame and mame2016 to avoid having to do that through mame osd (which didn't save between boots either), and i think you are right about the mame version not working properly. It doesn't surprise me, i remember helping that contributor with a few tips on retropie forum, he wanted this feature for playing cv1k games with mame2016 on his pi4, he probably never tested it thoroughly with mame.

How long does it typically take for mame-current to receive an update?
It happens when someone does the work to make it happen. In this case, someone just did it a couple of hours ago, so it should be making its way to the online updater soon if it's not there already: https://github.com/libretro/mame/commit/85581d60bb24fea14542b154aef2c7b624f5b60f

(PSA) RetroArch’s netplay is getting broken again
wouldnt be surprised they are all alike https://github.com/libretro/mame/issues/261 they dont know the difference between a mirror and a rotation. What chance has it user base got.

playing classic arcade games on a 16:9 tablet.
Libretroization of mame current is quite bad, especially if you are playing vertical games (see this issue), aspect ratio is probably safe though.
-
Why does the retropad for the MAME core still not have two joysticks? And why are the face buttons switched around for some games?
What's the triggering condition for the freezing issue you mention in your PR ? As i said, the one i knew about was fixed last year (https://github.com/libretro/mame/issues/158).

A Guide to Installing RetroPie and lr-mame on a Jetson Nano
So, I had to compile lr-mame manually and install it into the correct directory. Running compilation on a single core really took forever, but it eventually finished.

Your MAME version does NOT have to match your romset version. Can we stop telling people that they do?
Also, i'd recommend using the standalone version of MAME, there are major issues with the libretro core and especially this one affecting vertical games like dkong.
