      Hey Guys,

      I have a retropi (pi3) setup. Iam using a xbox360 wired controller but my roommate bought an EasySMX 2.4G amazon link
      Now on my 360Controller i can configure that the button between start and select is for the last input button. I can through pressing start+middlebutton leave the emulation. How do i configure the controller of my roommate? Somehow the retropi dont regonize the middle button nor the "turbo" button. Is there a way of fixing that?
      If not which wireless controller can you recommend?

        The button may be 'internal' - i.e. it's not outputting anything, but acts as a modifier button for other inputs (trigger or clear turbo, etc.)
        You can check with jstest from the commandline to see if the button produces anything - https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroArch-Configuration/#determining-button-values.

          Hi Eisbergsalat

          I bought an EasySMX controller recently for retropie use, but I can't for the life of me get retropie to recognise it at all. Did you do anything different to get it recognised, i.e. load any additional modules etc?

          Thanks

          Evan
