      kind of confused .... so i

      sudo nano /opt/retropie/configs/all/runcommand-onstart.sh

      (This template)

      sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv
      --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•]
      --silent
      --detach-kernel-driver
      --force-feedback
      --deadzone-trigger 15%
      --deadzone 4000
      --mimic-xpad
      --evdev-absmap ABS_[•]=dpad_x,ABS_[•]=dpad_y
      --evdev-keymap BTN_[•]=a,BTN_[•]=b,BTN_[•]=x,BTN_[•]=y,BTN_[•]=lb,BTN_[•]=rb,BTN_[•]=back,BTN_[•]=start
      --dpad-only
      --ui-axismap lt=void,rt=void
      --ui-buttonmap tl=void,tr=void,guide=void

        close
        you need this on the top or it will not know when to start the mapping

        if [ "$1" = "scummvm" ]
        then
        sudo killall >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 xboxdrv
        sudo /opt/retropie/supplementary/xboxdrv/bin/xboxdrv >> /dev/shm/runcommand.log 2>&1 \
            --evdev /dev/input/by-id/[•] \

          https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Universal-Controller-Calibration-&-Mapping-Using-xboxdrv/

          go to the

          Key-Mapping For Individual Emulators part to get a start on how the runcommand needs to look like

          but for now i think you should just put your mapping in a txt on your computer.

          there are ways to test it before you setup the run command

              just use the event and the number so for you it will be event0
              i could never get the id-to work

              think you could send me a link or something for your controller.
              when you posted the event codes there are alot more buttons then i would of thought for a NES

                              it all good, lol

                              --evdev-keymap KEY_#305=a,KEY_#304=b,KEY_#307=x,KEY_#308=y,KEY_#310=tl,KEY_#311=tr,KEY_#314=back,KEY_#315=start \
                              

                              this is your keymap for the controller.

                              now with

                              --ui-buttonmap a=BTN_LEFT,b=BTN_RIGHT,start=KEY_F5,back=KEY_ESC \
                              

                              you map what said buttons will do

                              again im still messing with the dpad

                                    when you post something like that
                                    put ```
                                    before and after
                                    then it will come up with the colored box around it

                                    like this
                                    

                                    just to help
