@sobeitjedi said in New Setup - USB Controllers dont seem accurate?: Any advice? Use jstest from the command line and see how responsive the controllers are. Run from the command line jstest /dev/input/js0 then start pressing buttons to see how fast the output is changed on the screen. Also, add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Thank you, but when the second controller is plugged in P1 cannot hotkey out. Both controllers have to be pulled and P1 reinserted to quit. Any ideas?

@KN4THX The problem it's not the hotkey, a lot of NES games use the select button for doing things in game. I'm a medium-skilled developer, with some guidance on the retropie bluetooth scripts and stack I could write myself a script which does in background the pairing procedure again, at least with one model, the SN30. If someone is willing to help or pointing me to who ask questions to, i'll be happy to try to write then publish such script.

@Eisbergsalat said in How do i configure the return to menu button on 3rd party controller like EasySMX 2.4G Wireless: Somehow the retropi dont regonize the middle button nor the "turbo" button. Is there a way of fixing that? The button may be 'internal' - i.e. it's not outputting anything, but acts as a modifier button for other inputs (trigger or clear turbo, etc.) You can check with jstest from the commandline to see if the button produces anything - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#determining-button-values.

Yes, that's correct. You have a gamepad, so the syntax would include the btn part, as you've already noticed - I realized after posting the example that the configuration part is covering the default keyboard mapping in RetroArch. Using the RGUI you can also check what values are assigned to each button, just to check if your mapping are considered. Note that you cannot use 1 single gamepad for 2 players - as you've posted, RetroArch doesn't support that (it does support to use 1 keyboard for 2 players though).

@DanceingBlade You have to back out to the 'Now Playing' option in the menu up top first. In the 'Now Playing' screen, you can see a 'Save' button in the top-right area. That will save the controller mappings.

@Marconemusic If I understand you correctly, everything works except Mame Controls are not mapped how you want, is that correct? If this is true, it sounds like you have to remap your controls for mame emulator. I have an arcade cabinet and when I mapped my controls, I mapped my joystick as D-Pad. I have no analog stick mapped with my joysticks. If I use an Xbox One Controller, I map everything accordingly but outside of that, I don't have an analog stick mapped. Even when I did use my Xbox One controller, Mame and Final Burn did not recognize my analog stick. If Mame is the only thing mapped incorrectly, try remapping your controls for Mame. You can hit tab on your keyboard within Mame and you can set your controller mapping there for the General mapping or for each game. If your Emulation Station also isn't mapped correctly, you may have to remap the controls for that input device. One time I had issues when I was building mine and controllers got reversed between player one and 2 when I didn't plug my inputs into the same USB port they were before. When I plugged in them in how I had it, it fixed that issue.

Thanks, that's the kind of thing I'm looking for. I'll check it out.

I don't know much about two player, but try pulling the plug, then plugging it back in without controllers. You'll get to the configure screen. Configure your second controller if it is unconfigured then press any button on your player 1 controller to get to Emulation Station. I don't know but theoretically it should work fine.

Thanks mate, I don't have a spare SD at the moment either, but I might be able to give it a run in a few weeks.

@Dj-EKI If you'd like that combo to open the menu, then open RetroArch from the RetroPie system in EmulationStation, set the option and then save your configuration. To leave a game, you'll have to use either a Hotkey + Start - which you don't want - or disable the Hotkey and choose another button for the exit hotkey. Pressing that button will automatically exit the game.
