      go to the

      Key-Mapping For Individual Emulators part to get a start on how the runcommand needs to look like

      but for now i think you should just put your mapping in a txt on your computer.

      there are ways to test it before you setup the run command

          just use the event and the number so for you it will be event0
          i could never get the id-to work

          think you could send me a link or something for your controller.
          when you posted the event codes there are alot more buttons then i would of thought for a NES

                          it all good, lol

                          --evdev-keymap KEY_#305=a,KEY_#304=b,KEY_#307=x,KEY_#308=y,KEY_#310=tl,KEY_#311=tr,KEY_#314=back,KEY_#315=start \
                          

                          this is your keymap for the controller.

                          now with

                          --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT,b=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,back=KEY_ESC \
                          

                          you map what said buttons will do

                          again im still messing with the dpad

                                when you post something like that
                                put ```
                                before and after
                                then it will come up with the colored box around it

                                like this
                                

                                just to help
