@mitu The rewind feature seems to work well in SNES, NES, and MD and with this setup that is 99.9% of what I play so I think I'm good.

As for the controller issue I have tried a few pre-made images and I haven't experienced this setup issue. I have re-downloaded this official image, flashed it, and tried it again and I get the same results so not sure if it is this latest release or what, so I don't know if it is a bug. I would reflash and try with a clean install and with some of the controllers I had, one from 8-bitdo, retro-bit, retroflag, and then the ones that came with my PS1 Classic all with the same results; The retroarch controller file isn't being written correctly. When setup in emulation station it works correctly in those menus but when I enter an emulator all the buttons don't work. I need to go into retroarch and set it up there like I said in my previous post.

I guess if no one reports this it is just me with the setup I have but mine is pretty standard: The official image I download from here, raspberry 3b+, retroflag NES case, and every controller I have. Maybe it is the pi I have? Anyway, I have it working now but when the next release comes out I will give it a try and see if it sorts out my problems.

Thanks for the help though! Besides this little problem I got everything I wanted from the official image and it works great.

@mitu, I'll check the script but to me the fact that the source code of ES refers to the buttons by two different names is incorrect.

Emulationstation works with more than 1 type of controller and/or keyboard. The fact that it works fine for a lot of other people contradicts your observation.

Anyway, I have to say that I didn't download the full package at first. I mean I only downloaded the source code of ES to compile, then when I realised I missed the themes I installed the configuration script. I need to do more testing though.

If you didn't install the package correctly, then you'll get incorrect results. Install the package from the RetroPie-Setup package - the stable version - then re-configure your controller and see if the .cfg file is correctly generated.

Ok, thanks for your answer. Then I have to use my old PS3 Controller
