      All, i got a set of innex usb snes controllers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N7ANDLC/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_7w6UBbEBNKXKP

      I got these ones because several have used them in the reviews on the Pi 3 B+. They work fine in the GUI I can map buttons no problem, Config retro pie, all with no issue. But once I get into a rom nothing. I have tried a different emulator, re configuring the controller, deleting the config file, I have googled the issue but can’t find anything specific to RetroPie 4.4. I get no errors when the rom loads and if I configure the keyboard it works fine in the rom.

      I started fresh and re installed everything, updated, and still no dice. Any ideas?

        @b4tn Please include the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first when opening a support topic.

        When you do the test, which emulator are you testing ? Are both controllers plugged in ?

          RetroPie version 4.4

          Connected devices: controller and Bluetooth keyboard

          Innexx snes usb controller

          No errors

          Emulator: "lr"lr-fceumm"

          At the time only one of the controllers is connected to port 0 and the emulator is "lr-fceumm"

            @b4tn Can you disconnect the keyboard completely and start a game again ? You keyboard might be chosen as Player 1 and P2 is the controller.

              Of all the stupid things. I never thought to unplug the keyboard. Both controllers work as long as the keyboard is not plugged in.
