      Hi, Everyone,

      I apologized but I've searched high and low and can't find an answer for this one. I'm running EmulationStation through OpenELEC on a Raspberry Pi 3 using iNNEXT Super Nintendo USB Controller.

      I continually go into the configuration for the controller in EmulationStation and set all the buttons appropriately. Whenever I do this then load a game it immediately reverts back to the default settings. It never saves or remembers the inputs as I have set them. Basically the only thing that is wrong is that SELECT/START are reversed and A/B are reversed. I can play everything fine but, obviously, it's a little frustrating after 30+ years being used to the controls of a game. :-)

      There must be something I'm doing wrong but I'll be darned if I can figure out what it is.

      Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

        @chefelf Please provide the information asked in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first, but since you're not running a RetroPie system (EmulationStation is just a frontend included in RetroPie) - wouldn't it be better asking in the OpenELEC forums first ?

          I'm sorry about that. Was trying to find the right spot to ask this question. Will check out OpenELEC.
