    Should work, although I'd use an USB stick for this kind of storage size and get a smaller 16 GB SD card. Makes backups easier and I think would be also cheaper.

    That did it! Rampage is back to normal now. Captain Silver no longer has static but the sound still degrades after 30 seconds or so which may just be how that one is.

    I would like to use combo inputs but I am not sure how since doing it in the emulation station menu only allows single buttons

    @allenpie Install the Joystick Selection tool from the link provided and you'll have an extra menu entry in the RetroPie menu for you to configure the controller/player mapping.

    @bdk said in Retropie 4.4 Controller Issues - Xin-Mo & Multiple Controllers:

    Hello All,

    I am having a heck of time trying to keep my controller configs set on Retropie 4.4. I have a bar-top arcade that has two Xin-Mo controllers. Each Joystick has
    6 buttons
    1 joystick
    player 1(start)
    Coin (select)
    exit
    menu
    mode
    play

    In Retropie 4.3 this all worked great. This button configuration worked for all emulators I have atari , dreamcast, nin, sega, arcade etc...

    What is happening now is the controller will work for a few correctly meaning I can move up and down get into games and out of the emulators. At some point it just stops working and I can not get out of the emulators. I can still move up and down and buttons to get into emulators seem to work but they fail to get me out of emulator.
    Another thing I noticed it seems as soon as I plug in my Logitech Gamepad F310 that just works right out of the box with everything it starts to mess up the arcade sticks. It seems I can only have 2 joysticks configured.

    I have tried a lot of the stuff people have said to do on forums. This is what I have done.

    Add this line to cmdline.txt "usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040" Used multiple - Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade.cfg & Xin-MoXin-MoDualArcade.cfg Configured my own Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade.cfg & Xin-MoXin-MoDualArcade.cfg I am currently evaluating this posting. I am concerned to do any of this since this is an old article and we are on Stretch now.

    Is anyone else having issues like this? Have you been able to get past them?

    Update 5/14/2018 - I finally had a chance to really look at this issue and the problem looks like it has to do with RetroArch not saving Userbinds 3-5 . I can save the configs for the 1st two input binds but nothing after that. So I am looking into why I can not save bind 3 on.

    ***Update 5/17/2018 - Now Working
    Boy this has been tricky but I learned a lot about Retropie trying to figure this out. A little silver lining. I think I got it fixed. This is what I did.

    At some point I must of updated my OS that removed the line in the cmdline.txt on the root of the SD card- usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e1:0x040.
    I re-added the line
    Wipped out emulation station information from the cli cmd line gui tool
    Rebooted
    Reconfigured joysticks and they worked.
    Back up image
    Then started loading all my packages
    I checked here and there still worked
    This is where I think it broke. I updated the retropie and the base OS and when rebooted my arcade joystick 2 was #1 and emulation station recofig would not work and hot keys did not work.
    Went into Retro Arch and noticed a few things.
    I thought I lost the cmdline.txt line that I mentioned in the begging but I did not, it was still there. The file did update though because I know I had another configuration in there that is no longer in that file but that was not what broke my controller. I did the following.

    I went to RetroArch configuration.

    Menu Toggle Gamepad combo was set to "start-Select" which I had it to none before. - I changed it back to "none" Save Configuration on exit was not set to yes it was now set to NO - I set it back to "Yes" My inputs where all messed up. Joystick 2 was 1 and GPIO was 1 and 3. I set Joystick 1 to 1 and save config, Set Joystick 2 to 2 saved and then set GPIO to 3. as a side note my keyboard worked even though it did not show up as a controller. I saved and rebooted and everything now seems to be working. I can get into games and my hot keys are working.

    I am doing a backup now. Once it is done I plan to make sure Keyboard is configured and my Logitech F3 joypad is working. Since this is an Arcade cabinet I am more concerned about Xin-Mo.

    @mitu I did add the line myself, I just mean is there a way to get the file through WinSCP so I can post it on here? I tried looking through my computer connected to it on that but I couldn't find it. I couldn't find the folder it was in.

    Simple answer, you can't do it.
    Videos are not supported on system view, and most elements can only be used once.

    Thanks for the tip

    Ok I did that command and I got used 5.4GB(10%) with 51GB available. So I guess I just misread the File Manager.

    What prompted me to misread the File Manager I suppose would be when I was scraping games and got a disk full or something else(forget what now) error message. However, I SSH'd into the Pi during the Scrape operation and perhaps that caused that error message and made me paranoid.

    @mitu Thank you for your response. However, I had already checked the documentation and didn't find the options I was looking for. They weren't in the config file either. I could disable the blur for everything, but I only want to disable it for 2D textures. And the other option, regarding the black margins, was nowhere to be found either.

    @Fruitybit Nevermind, it works. The Button was just simply broken. Got another one, works like a charm
