USB Keyboard not working
-
I have plugged a USB keyboard into my raspberry pi to play games on retropie. But when I click a game and try clicking the "A Button" I configured on the Retropie configuration, The emulator pauses. I am using the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B if that means anything.
-
Which key did you configure for the 'A' button ? By default, RetroArch uses 'P' for pausing the game - did you choose it by any chance as your 'A' button ?
-
@mitu I configured the A button to be "k"
-
K is bound to Frame Advance. Did you define a hotkey when asked to configure one in EmulationStation ?
-
@mitu Yes. I configured my hotkey to be the Windows button since I am using a windows keyboard.
-
You may need to remove the frame advance function from the K key. Add a new line to
\\retropie\configs\all\retroarch.cfg
withinput_frame_advance = "null"
and see if that solves the pausing issue.
-
@mitu How would I get to that? I'm kinda new to this.
-
@bonekiller99 Open the
\\retrpie\configs\
folder from your PC (it's afile shares, similar to how you add roms) and open the file from the location indicated above in a text editor (Notepad). -
@mitu I got it... Thanks!
