      @edward_ci that's how I understand it, yeah. As far as the emulator is concerned, it's just another USB gamepad. If the two gamepads have identical device names/IDs, then they'll use the same config file. So whatever mapping like button_12 = "A" or whatever is set in the config file, will be the same for both gamepads. If "button 12" is whatever button is wired in position "6F" on the board or whatever, and you have that wired to a different physical button, then your "A" button will be that different physical button. They need to be exactly the same.

      Hello and welcome to this forum.

      @sf2 said in How to confirm the configuration has done?:

      If no game at all, where can I download and install?

      There's a thread that collects legally available games for many systems.

      Where to (legally) acquire content to play on RetroPie

      @Bernie @sliderem Hello, My Pandora 3d controllers does not detect by raspberry pi4. I have installed Sanwa joysticks in my Pandora 3d. Also added usbhid.quirks=0x16c0:0x05e0:0x040 inside cmdline.txt. Do you have any idea? Is this because of my Sanwa sticks on pandora or should the Pandora ID remains same after joystick replacement? Really appreciate any suggestions.

      In the meantime, hope someday we might get package versions of dosbox staging and disbox-X too, these seems to be eqally cool projects.

      @ts-x Great idea on dropping in on him. I might just do that. I have a wired number pad that I tried to use plugged into the USB port on my Mayflash (which would also avoid two long wires), but that didn't work. It's not a real USB port apparently. However, it would also be seen as another input device.

      This issue is NUTS and across the whole retro industry. Someone needs to do something. Every joystick should come with the ability to ID itself as unique. If say, 8bitdo suddenly started offering controllers that all could send out unique IDs it would be a SHORT wait for someone in Retroarch and others to jump in and support that. That manufacturer would sell a ton of product and force everyone else to adopt that option as it would be SO brain-dead obvious. How has this NOT happened yet???

      Okay, solved and this is one I recommend making more clear in the documentation. My issue was that I ALWAYS keep a wireless keyboard connected to my Retropie. It's just a tiny dongle taking one port so why not? It's so much easier for certain tasks.

      However, I kept wondering why the test rom for Intellivision was reporting that I was on controller 2 and every other comment pointed to controller one. Then I noticed posts where people said that Daphne and Intellivion (jzintv anyway) assign the first controller they see, which in this case was the keyboard -- and that explained why the keyboard worked. Ugh.

      @pinho83 said in Controller priority on retroarch emulators:

      I changed controller configuration for lr-snes9x and lr-pcsx_rearmed so I can use the two logitech (more confortable with shoulders and triggers) and works good. I connect Logitech only when I want to play snes or psx games.

      How exactly did you do that ? If you configured it from RetroArch, using a control remaps, then you need to remove the remap.

      The hotkey enable button, being RetroArch specific, is part of the joypad auto-configuration profiles saved in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/autoconfig.

      If you have a 4k TV, try setting the video resolution of your Raspberry Pi to 1080p - you can modify the /boot/config.txt file on the sdcard and set

      hdmi_group=1 hdmi_mode=16

      then reboot your Pi.

      I would add that I have two DragonRise controllers, a USB Mouse (e.g., spinner), and USB keyboard connected.

      I changed out the controller board for the 2nd player with another DragonRise just to see if it was the problem. That wasn't it.

      @peetem All the files in the config folder should be owned and accessible by the installation user (pi on a Pi system). They're also available at \\retropie\configs via file shares.
      Check the permissions on that folder by running

      ls -ld /opt/retropie/configs

      and post the output.
