How to edit autoconfig hotkeys?

foxtochop

I had the idea to bind:
Select + DPad Down = Eject/Close tray
Select + DPad Left = Previous disc
Select + DPad Right = Next disc

However, Select + DPad Right or Left is autoconfigured to be Previous/Next Save State Slot.

How to edit autoconfig so each time I configure a controller through emulationstation, it automatically binds Select + DPad Left/Right only to Previous/Next disc ?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: What I did in the end is add this lines in /opt/retroarch/configs/psx/retroarch.cfg

input_disk_eject_toggle_btn = "h0down"
input_disk_next_btn = "h0right"
input_disk_prev_btn = "h0left"

and, as a workaround, also:

input_state_slot_decrease_btn = "99"
input_state_slot_increase_btn = "99"

(Defining those two on nul, "nul", null, "null", "" or nothing at all resulted in it being the "0" button)

My question now is:
Is there going to be any problem in the future for me by binding state slot -/+ to "99"? (Any of my controllers have a "99" button).

No likely, since updates will not overwrite the file you modified.
As an alternative solution, you can disable the joypad auto-configuration performed by EmulationStation and modify your gamepad auto-config profile in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads to set your own hotkeys.

Alright, thanks!
