Thanks for the input everyone. I've got a handful of working games and I'm happy with that for now. I have far more on my Linux tower RetroPie build that is more fit for this kind of thing.

I have seen a thread about this on here gut it gives no explanation on how it was solved and is very old.

I think the solution was to mod the stick with an IPAC usb encoder.

So i bought some electronic switches and a custom usb keyboard encoder (ipac2), installed it in my atrox and ended up with a fully working xbox one and raspberry pi machine.

Can you try to test the controller with jstest, from the command line and see if the inputs are registered ? Exit EmulationStation and run from the terminal

jstest /dev/input/js0

You can exit the test by pressing Ctrl+C.

I will give that a try and get back to you thanks.

@BobbyJoe I was wondering if you could share your tweaks?

I followed the instructions in that link (I am using RetroPie 4.6 installed from the official image).

When I try and run a game it returns to the RetroPie screen. The log has the following error: "Unsupported bit depth".

I tried following the advice of @SpudsMcToole here, https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/20471/what-the-heck-s-happened-to-advmess, but wasn't clear what lines he deleted from his .rc file to get the BBC Emulation working via advmess.

Any hints and tips you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

where do i put this pairing code?

I think it was one of the questions on the blog post from yesterday. It remains to be seen.

Q : How much higher are those peek currents?
A: Not vast, and of course DRAM current is only a small fraction of total loaded power consumption. But required a change nonetheless.

Apologies for digging up an old thread. Just wanted to know how you got the LT and RT buttons to work on the retropi as the xinput drivers etc aren't working on mine?

Thanks

​Solved. Bad VGA cable.

Saw someone reply and get banned here,

It was a spam bot - nothing to do with the content of the topic itself.

@YFZdude I’m also looking at the MAME2016.rmp file (I didn’t change anything in here) but it says

input_libretro_device_p1= “5”
input_libretro_device_p2= “1”
input_libretro_device_p3= “1”
input_libretro_device_p4= “1”
input_libretro_device_p5= “1”
input_player1_analog_dpad_mode = “1”
input_player1_btn_select = “-1”
input_player1_btn_up = “-1”

Is this correct considering select is usually an 8? It doesn’t make sense to me why the select and button up are the same?

Glad it's working for you.
I'm still learning some of this but just for reference, I think a "-1" would be the equivalent of saying that button is either disabled or undefined. All regular buttons probably should have a number with no sign (+ or -) associated with them. An analog function usually mentions an axis and those can have a negative sign for one direction and a positive sign for the other direction.

Had the same issue on Lubuntu 20.04, the symbolic link was missing for /usr/bin/python

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python

Thanks

@quicksilver Will give it a try and report back. Thank you!

@Bluebotlabs thanks so much for the help 👍🏻
