      After my many attempts, I cannot seem to get my generic SNES USB Controller controlling MAME properly. I have read up on a few command line programs which take controller input and turn it into keyboard shortcuts however this didn't work when I attempted it... Any help would be much appreciated.

      Thanks in advance,
      Josh

          After looking at this wiki, creating the joystick.xml didn't seem to work and, when I moved on to the official Kodi wiki (http://kodi.wiki/view/keymap) the Keymap Editor Program didn't pick up anything from my controllers despite them being plugged in and working in the EmulationStation interface. A bit further down there was a section about manually modifying some more xml files. I don't understand how I can find the different button numbers.

          Thanks again,
          Josh
