      @mike1889

      I actually have a dedicated hotkey on the arcade controller. On the SNES pads I just use SELECT as hotkey. I haven’t had the time use the cabinet for some time now but at least I can’t remember having problems when swapping between the different configurations of buttons on the controllers..

      In some cases using SELECT as a hotkey can interfere with the game controls but as far as I’m concerned the dedicated hotkey is not absolutely necessary. On the other hand I really wish I had put in two more action buttons on the arcade controllers. I now have Street Fighter style six button layouts but I wish they were eight buttons instead. They could be used as R1 and R2 on Playstation games. NeoGeo cabinets used to have four buttons in a row so having two rows of four buttons would mimic the NeoGeo controller better as I then could use one out of the two rows of buttons as originally intended. There’s probably also many other situations where more action buttons will allow for better configurations.

      If you haven’t read this yet you really should, it’s a fantastic resource on arcade controllers:

      For me. I like to use the original hardware with my RetroPie setup so i get the most authentic experience.

      Yeah, I am the same, it is all part of the nostalgia

      @tjayhawk32 I don't think the order matters. The Pi has only 1 internal USB hub, any port would go over the same data path.

      @herb_fargus Thanks. It's strange that they aren't compatible, but OK, time to get a USB 2 hub rather than playing around trying to get it working I guess.

      If you get the lightning bolt popup without the case, then you also need a better power supply.

      @mitu said in Multiple USB Ports + Controller order for Emulators:

      @retropied You can try looking at @meleu's handy joystick selection script - https://github.com/meleu/RetroPie-joystick-selection - and adapt it to automatically re-order the controllers based on the emulator started.

      @mitu I installed the joystick selection script but I'm having a problem.
      I have a system with two integrated controller (Dragonrise zero delay encoder) and I want to use a bluetooth gamepad for some games only. My target is to have bluetooth controller as number 1 controller when connected.
      So I installed Joystick Selection Sricpt and setted Bluetooth controller as the first one and then the two dragon rise. The problem is that when the bluetooth controller is not connected the two dragonrise continue to act as player 2 and 3 and not as 1 and 2. Do you think it is possible to fix this whitout changing configuration everytime?

      @MRZ999 yes this is how retropie still works. Unless your using a older version from around 1 year and half ago. There was a change to how retro arch saw controllers by the order they were plugged In, but was reversed shortly after.

      Make sure the roms have the correct file extensions The hub could defenitely be a reason for this.
      You could try a hub with a own power supply...

      @edmaul69 Nope no mausberry, I'm pretty comfortable just going through the menu. I would really like to, someday, figure out a way to plug in the power supply, and have a functioning switch to power on/off via the on/off switch on the Sega USB hub. It functions side to side but it's just for show, along with the vertical volume knob. I would like to plug in, switch it on, and it boot up, then switch off, and shutdown the system properly as if I went through the menu somehow. This one guy said he was able to accomplish this using python script, and I believe the switch wired into the GPIO. I'm not familiar with python or how I'd even go about configuring that, but I'm sure it's possible. Just need the know-how. That would be pretty sweet to just us the on/off switch like an actual Genesis console.

      Final Decision.. I'm going to return this and see if I can find a POWERED USB2.0. I just tried one last thing:

      dwc_otg.speed=1 added to the /boot/cmdline.txt file

      This tells the Pi to run at the lowest possible bus speed. That means all the USB ports on the Pi are 1.1, the SD card slot/LAN/Wireless are all 12mpbs, and the whole system as a whole runs like it was built in the 90's. This worked, believe it or not. But the speed was too slow for my dongle to properly work. So that tells me, the keyboard is definitely 1.1 (it worked great with that low-speed) and the Xbox dongle requires at least 2.0. The green light came on to show it had power, and the Pi DID detect it, but data transmission was too slow for it to be useful.

      Somebody, PLEASE!!! What is a good USB hub that works? I basically know now that I need it to be USB2.0, and it has to be powered as the Pi can't send enough power through the hub.
