      Check if you have any extra auto-configuration configuration files for the 8bitdo in the auto-config folder.

      I have one for each controller in that folder

      Shaders pre-sets are not saved from the core overrides, but with the 'Save Shader pre-set' option from the 'Shaders' menu.

      It wasn't working properly (I've created a topic talking about it not much time ago) and override was a workaround to set it, but I've tried and it worked like it should.

        Do you have any controller remapping set-up ? Maybe you've re-mapped the 2nd player controls ? Check the /home/pi/.config/retroarch/config/retroarch/config/remaps/ folder and see if you've set any such re-mapping.

            This is the thread. Just for the record. :)

              @Clyde thanks man. Re-reading my stuff... Oof, it's so hard write in another language. I understand and I listen, but speak...
              Even using Google translator before post something my texts go out so poorly written.
              I'm sorry :'(

                @CapNinja It's ok, you're better than google translate so far :). For your original problem though, I have no idea what could interfere with the player 2 bindings (especially since the same gamepad works as P1).

                  Here is the catch, isn't working as P1 anymore too. And if it's unknown territory for you, may I be a guinea pig for this problem. I will accept any suggestion for anything, even if I need to format later.
                  What I wanna try to do is directly edit the .cfg for that controller located on that folder.

                    If you re-configure the controller from Emulationstation, the .cfg file for the controller would be re-created with the new configuration.

                        @mitu one success for us. The edition on that .cfg worked. One interesting thing I've noticed is: every value was 11 more than normal.
                        If my select button value is 10, on that .cfg he was 21.
                        If my B button value is 4, there was 15.

                        On a side note, I've used @Clyde "mc" tip and man, it saved at least 1h of my time.

                        Again, guys. Thanks for your time, for your effort, for your attention and for caring and sharing your knowledge with us.
