      @slooker the log looks okay, I think; it doesn't show any remaps in use, or any obvious errors that I can see. Can we see your neogeo/retroarch.cfg?

        It was in the original pastebin

        # Settings made here will only override settings in the global retroarch.cfg if
placed above the #include line

input_remapping_directory = "/opt/retropie/configs/neogeo/"


#include "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg"

          @slooker oh sorry I didn't realize that was a different link than the log. That looks normal too. As does your global config. I'm not sure what else to look for; hopefully someone else can pick this up and get you sorted.

              Right trigger for example is jump when I push it down, and shoot when I release it. Obviously that's not ideal. :)

              For some reason, your gamepad is detected as keyboard (?):

              [INFO] [udev]: Keyboard #0: "HOLDCHIP USB Gaming Keyboard" (/dev/input/event4).

              Are you using a genuine Xbox One controller or is it a clone/3rd party controller ? Is it detected as gamepad on a PC or does it appear as a keyboard also ?

                @mitu It's a genuine xbox one controller that works as a controller on my PC. I've got two of them connected, and they both work fine on PC?

                  Ok, it's also detected as a controller. I guess the driver adds an extra key input so that's why is detected with a keyboard input.

                  You can remap the buttons via the Core input remapping menu in RetroArch and re-arrange the buttons as you want.

                  If the controllers are connected via Bluetooth, I'd also recommend installing the xpadneo driver (it's included in RetroPie-Setup, you just need to install it from the drivers section). You may have to re-pair the controller and re-configure it in EmulationStation.

                    @mitu As soon as I open the Quick menu in a neogeo game, I can't move around the menu at all. I can't exit the menu with the controller OR keyboard. I usually end up having to ssh in and reboot. I'll try adding the xpadneo driver to see if that helps.

                      @mitu Looks like I already have xpadneo (Installed - via source). Is there something else I should be doing?

                        Unplug the keyboard ?

                          I unplugged the keyboard and completely rebooted. I still have weird controls and I can't move anything after opening up the quick menu. Here's my verbose log of this run: https://pastebin.com/u2hepqCb

                            I'm not sure why the quick menu doesn't work - just for Neogeo games.

                            FBneo added some input macros bound to L1/R2 and L2/R2, so that may explain why the triggers have actions associated. They can be disabled from the Controls sub-menu from RetroArch's quick menu, but if that's not working for you, I guess you can't change it.

                            If you use only the keyboard, are you able to open (F1) and operate the quick menu ? Can you post the controller profile - there should be a .cfg file from /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads named Xbox Wireless Controller.

                              @mitu After plugging the keyboard back in and restarting emulation station, F1 does nothing at all when I push it on the keyboard.

                              Here's my xbox wireless config though:

                                So I was actually wrong about being able to navigate the quick menu in other systems.

                                I can't navigate the quick menu in ANY system using the keyboard or controller.

                                I've just never needed to in another system because the buttons work the way I expect them to. :/

                                  Apparently the right and left bumper lets me move (3 or 4 lines at a time...) through the quick menu. So I can navigate the quick menu, just not with any precision. :)

                                    Apparently after waiting ~5 seconds, the bumpers work, then everything works, as far as navigating the quick menu. Now I just have to figure out how to reset the controls for neogeo....

                                      @slooker your controllers are bluetooth, right ? can you plug them on usb, run lsusb and post the output ?

                                          Is there a better option than xbox controllers, because at this point, I'd happily throw money at it to not have to keep screwing with things. :p

                                            8bitdo controllers are popular, personally i mostly use hori fight commanders since i rarely play anything that requires a second stick or analog controls. I don't think changing controllers is the solution here though.

                                            The officlal retroarch config file for 045e:02ea (hexadecimal) aka 1118:746 (decimal) is https://github.com/libretro/retroarch-joypad-autoconfig/blob/master/udev/Microsoft_X-Box_One_S_pad.cfg , and it doesn't look like yours at all, so my only guess is that your config is wrong. Maybe try overwriting yours with the official one ?
