      @SpudsMcToole it gets automatically added to ports. You can remove it though via the ports folder.

        Yep, 4.2 has fixed it, all-new Kodi is present and correct. Unfortunately none of my gamepads will now register. You win some, you lose some :D

          @SpudsMcToole Run the Kodi install/update again, now that you have updated to RetroPie 4.2.

            How will reinstalling Kodi make the gamepads work? Kodi works fine, the gamepads don't. In anything, not just in Kodi.

              @SpudsMcToole Because it will install the binary addon that makes joysticks work in Kodi 17, it was added in RetroPie 4.2 ...

                Nope, made no difference at all, sadly.

                  Check that the addon peripheral.joystick is enabled and configure your gamepads like explained here:
                  http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Configure_controllers

                  If it still doesn't work after that, post your kodi log like explained above.

                    Yep, already tried that, didn't work because the controllers haven't paired so the button presses don't register.

                      @SpudsMcToole If the joysticks aren't paired of course they will not work, but that has nothing to do with Kodi, that is done outside Kodi.
                      And without the information requested I can't help you further.

                        Isn't that what I said several posts ago? :)

                              @SpudsMcToole So better to try to setup bluetooth again, and if you still cannot get them work, open a new topic it a better description of the problem, so other people can see it and help you.

                                @Rascas Already did that an hour ago :)

                                (Only mentioned it in here as a wry comment on the nature of code - fix one thing, something else breaks...)

                                  @SpudsMcToole No doubt a silly question, what's your memory space like? I found no end of problems with kodi if my sd card was almost full, creating some space made all the difference. Kodi starts a log as it initialises, if it can't do that it won't even start. Particularly if an update hadn't quite enough space to do its thing, everything looked fine but I was teetering into zero space left.

                                    @Fruitybit Nah, I've got loads of room, at least 20GB.
