      Im using a generic PC game contoller with my RPi 4 build.
      The Shoulder and Trigger buttons both work on other Emulators but just not with PPSSPP.
      HELP

              RetroPie version 4.1 doesn't support the Pi 4 model, what is the exact version you have installed ?

              PPSSPP has a configuration menu, you can go into the settings menu, to Controls and then the Control Mapping section allows you to set your controls. Try mapping L and R there, if they work in other games, they should be recognized by PPSSP also.

                  if you're using lr-PPSSPP ... then your HOTKEY setup

                  if you using PPSSPP Standalone ... then press ESC on a Keyboard

                  For Both emulators ... button configs are found via going into Settings and then Controls > Control Mapping

                    @ReadyPlayaWon thanks!
                    I removed the other PPSSPP I had and installed the lr-PPSSPP package, the controls all worked out of the box!
                    Thank you again!
