      So looks like there is a bug where the can only exit using the controller identified on PORT#0 of retroarch (player 1 usually) Sometimes if a wireless controller 1 loses battery or is disconnected the user is stuck in the game since other players cannot exit or save or any of the retrarch hotkeys. Any to map multiple controller to retro arch hotkeys ?

        @retrogamer2 there was the option all_users_control_menu, but this feature was buggy and then it was disabled. The good thing is: looks like it was fixed in this commit, but I think we'll only see it on RetroPie when RetroArch v1.6.2 is released.

          @meleu thanks for the insight I tried the v1.6.3, I think thats what latest retropie install pulling from source code and the hotkeys doesnt seem to work for any other controller apart from #1 :( , looks like an issue that needs to be bought up with retroarch team.
