        @gusrod1580 you appear to be assigning multiple functions to button 8. What this means is that you might be continually changing the functionality of button 8 causing conflicts. Or I might have read somewhere that there is a hierarchy that the configuration file adheres to depending on the order that it is written but I am unsure. Look at the button 8 assignments. You also have exit assigned to 8 and then 9 which doesn't look right but I am no expert on gamepads.

            @gusrod1580 Yes but earlier in the file you are assigning 8 to select and enable hot key as well as exit emulator. So you will get no functionality even if those last lines are removed.
