      @mediamogul so strange. I really appreciate you taking the time to test this for me. Another mystery to solve.

      I do use a keyboard and trackpad combo but removed it from the equation many times. I will revisit that though once again.

        @mediamogul unless it is the Dolphinbar itself I can not work this out.

        I need to ask before I purchase a replacement... are you using the regular version of RetroPie and RetroArch? I have updated RetroArch from both binary and source without change.

          I am, yes. If it helps, below are the two .cfg files I used for the overlay.

          Duck Hunt (World).zip.cfg

          input_overlay = "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/nes/duck_hunt_overlay.cfg"
          input_overlay_enable = True
          input_overlay_opacity = 0.900000
          input_overlay_scale = 1.000000
          

          duck_hunt_overlay.cfg

          overlays = 1
          overlay0_overlay = "duck_hunt_overlay.png"
          overlay0_rect = "0.0,0.0,1.0,1.0"
          overlay0_full_screen = true
          overlay0_descs = 0

            @mediamogul thanks. I am still having the hard freeze with only a keyboard and mouse with no config changes. Other than adding my overlay. And I’ve tried many. I’ll Jump off this thread but I did start one of my own if anything comes to mind.

            I’ll try your configs as well. Thanks again.

              No problem. If I think of anything, I'll let you know.

                @mediamogul tried your config without success.

                Does your Duck Hunt (World).zip.cfg truly point to the nes/roms folder? I don’t normally run per-game configs but I point mine to the opt.../overlays folder...
