@gordonfreemanjr do you have any other controllers plugged in? Did you map your keyboard as a controller? It may be worth going into RetroPie-setup and resetting your mappings and then remapping just to see if that fixes the light issue.

@quicksilver Thank you. I will try that in the coming days. I don't have a wireless keyboard at hand :p I did a complete test of the Xbox360 controller inside PPSSPP. This is a list of the buttons I'm pressing and how PPSSPP recognizes them in the menu. Main Buttons Back - pad1.back Start - pad1.ThumbL X-Box - pad1.ThumbR Directional Pad Up - Don't Register! Down - Don't Register! Left - pad1.Up Right - pad1.Down Face Buttons A - pad1.b2 B - pad1.B3 X - pad1.b4 Y - pad1.b1 Left Analog L3 - pad1.Left Up - pad1.Y Axis - Down - pad1.Y Axis + Left - pad1.X Axis - Right - pad1.X Axis + Right Analog R3 - pad1.Right Up - pad1.Pressure - Down - pad1.Pressure + Left - Don't Register! Right - pad1.TouchMajor + Shoulder Buttons LB - pad1.b6 LT - pad1.b9 RB - pad1.b5 RT - pad1.b10

Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. What controller type/model are you using ?

@quicksilver Absolutely devastating. 2.4 GHz didn’t made the TV to couch distance...

@matchaman normally at a flee market you could find some in decent condition for like 5$ each and the kit is like 20$ so 25$ for a wireless OG controller would be the best but for me when i play my console games on my Pi i use the SN30 Pro and Pro+ but when i am on my Switch i use the official one they offer when you have the Nintendo online service (which i have not tested on my Pi yet).

I have a theory why this happened I had my channel width set to vht80 my 5g wasnt showing up either. It shows up now after changing it.

wireless super Nintendo work great $26 new from amazon

If the controller is plugged in with a cord it will detect it, but it will not detect the 8bitdo adapter. I didn't install a heat sink on the internal Bluetooth chip because I had this adapter and planned to use it. I don't know why it can't be detected.

Press Start to open the Emulationstation menu, then use the Input Configuration entry to re-configure your controller.

I believe that is a Windows only device

I have a similar behavior with the most recent version of Retropie running on my pi 3 B+. My Logitech F710 controller runs very well inside the Emulationstation, however if I start a games - regardless with kind of emulation - the controller stops to work.

Welcome to this forum. Please provide all the information that is asked for in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first in addition to the vendor and model of the wireless keyboard.

@Jshhh Try using a RetroPie image and see if that works. If it does, the problem may be the kernel/firmware version in OSMC.

Thank you @seanbeedelicious ! Works like a charm.

Got it thanks again for all the help. I guess this brand is more commonly referred to as a shenwen controller and that's what the pi recognized it as. After installing the PS3 drivers, I used this guide to help: https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/54522/retropie-ps3-controller-over-bluetooth/54630 I appreciate the help as I'm now able to play from the comfort of my couch, as opposed to a folding chair I had set up in front of the TV.
