      1.69 works you need to downgrade to that. I have 3 of them running on 1.69. They didnt work on 1.68 for me.

        I just wanted to threw out there that I am also using 1.69 for a while now on an NES30 Pro and an FC30 Pro.

        I'm not sure if these two will work together but they appear to work on their own.

          Tried 1.69, no go. As soon as I disconnect BT device, the generic SNES pad I have has working hot keys again....

                Can you post up your controller file generated via ES when you had 1.68?
                Please put on pastebin.com

                You can find the file here:
                /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads/

                Can you post this info up?

                  I'm using a Pi Model B. I downloaded the image from RetroPi and applied and went forward to the latest beta. Before the beta, I got this issue so I thought moving up might help. I also moved up the entire OS as well (didn't help).

                  again, the only issue is the hotkeys working on this controller: 8bitdo NES30 Pro

                    @drduranduran Your files look right for firmware 1.68 - as you say they work fine.
                    So if its just the hotkeys that arent working, does that mean you have altered this file?
                    opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

                    Your controller file has the right hotkey detail in it - assuming you are running RetroArch.

                      @Floob said in 8bitdo NES30 Pro Hotkeys not working (Firmware 1.70 Beta 5):

                      opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg

                      I didn't manually modify any files.... Is there a way to reset the entire RetroPie and not disturb the ROM folders? I don't mind taking it back to stock settings.

                      Thanks for the help....

                        Nevermind, I burnt it all down. On RetroPie 4.0 RC1 using NES30 Pro Firmware 1.7 Beta 5 and now the hotkeys are working. Thanks for the assist anyways...
