      @lostless I don’t have any options for controls under options. I sincerely apologize as I thought retroarch would be the same for all versions but maybe it is not. In any case, I am using a pi4. When I go into retroarch using start and the hot key I do have an option for the quick menu and then options but nothing in there has anything to do with a controller. Maybe I am missing something. Thank you for your help.

        @jhferguson update the emulator. I think an update added it in a while ago.

          @lostless I updated it the week after Christmas when I began building this image.

            I have similar issue since an update few weeks ago, latest update to 4.7.3 didn't solve the issue.
            No more lb retroarch mapping under psx.
            Try select+y or home+y.

                For me help this method.
                In core options:
                -Show other inputs settings and restart retroarch
                -turn off multitap 1 and 2 and restart retroatch
                -set in contrlos standard pad

                if you lost pad again in control save standard pad for core.

                    @zzackk Show other inputs was already set to on. Turned off multitap 1 and 2 and under the controls menu I changed it to standard and still got the same thing. Any ideas?

                      Fixed it. In Retroarch>Settings>Input: There are a couple options in there for Turbo Mode. I changed Turbo Mode to Single Button and everything is working now. Thank you all for your assistance.

                        @jhferguson I fixed by removing all configs and reinstalling lr-pcsxReARMed, which gives you default settings. Im assuming with all the changes of where certain options are located, that having an older config might cause issues. This is why I rarely update when I have a good build.

                          This is also happening with RetroArch for Android, reverting to a previous build (november 2020) of PCSX ReARMed solved the issue without changing any RA config.
