      Hi there. I'm new to RetroPi. I am using RetroPi with a pair of XBOX 360 controllers. On controller one when playing an NES game, if I press "down" and "B", the emulator will reset the game. I don't want that to happen. (I'll be happy with some other control pad-button combo, but not that!)

      How do I change this setting? When I go to:
      "Settings / Input / Hotkey Binds" / "reset game"

      it just says "auto: 1 (n/a), (Key:h)", but nothing about a 2-button combo to trigger this action.

        The hotkey setting for your controller is part of your joypad autoconfiguration. You can redo that from the main EmulationStation menu: Settings > Configure Input

        I press the "Start" button on my controller to get the menu - you can see a picture of it in this page: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/EmulationStation/

        Press all of the buttons on your controller when prompted, and then the last question is which of the buttons do you want to be the Hotkey enable button. "Select" is a typical choice :)
