          so I got everything to work in game. I even figured out how to exit from the games. Escape alone doesn't seem to work but player 1 select(num5) is set to be the hot key and that plus escape backs out of games. That seems to be the only way I can get it to work. The runcommand no longer comes up when I hold player 2 down not sure what it did but I changed some stuff and it worked.

          so we are basically all good and playing.
          I wish I could change the emulation station menu buttons but when I do it changes everything.

            @sammylj Hmm. That escape exit situation sounds like you still have hotkeys enabled. Scan through your retroarch.cfg for hotkey and set it to "nul" or comment out the setting. I am running with a dedicated exit (escape) and I don't need to press anything else, just my single exit button.
