RetroPie USB Joystick not recognized in Emulationstation
-
I have a DragonRise Inc. Generic USB Joystick with arcade buttons. It worked fine with my Pi3b+. I have since moved to a Pi4 Model B and Emulationstation detects that there is a gamepad, but does not recognize when I press a button or move the joystick in order to map the new device. It works fine with my USB SNES and Genesis controllers.
When I run the jtest in Retropie, it comes back fine and shows real-time input.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,

@dozermufc Please add more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
Can you also run EmulationStation with the--debug
parameter (from the command line) and post the log file from the attempt of configuring the device ?emulationstation --debug
The log file can be found in
\\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\es_log.txt

@mitu Thanks for your reply! I ended up removing the cfg files for the arcade button mapping and re-did the process. Success!
Thanks again
