Same problem here (with a compatible xbox controller).

Solution? I just do not register left and right bottom triggers…

[haris1977]

Thanks:) I will try them out..

For booting straight into kodi i found this:

Kodi tab in emulationstation

Has anybody tried it?

[haris1977]

Jassen i agree.. I tried recalbox only once (as i couldnt even install it !!). I ve seen many bugs out there, but as i said i ‘ve seen nice touches on ES (like the 4 player input setup) which i really liked:P

I like RetroPie more though..We keep our fingers crossed for future updates though..

[haris1977]

1) How do i burn the retropie image to my HDD/USB? Through Win32 Disk imager?

2) Is there any sd-card corruption prevention with this method? Thus meaning we can overclock the pi?

3) Where do we “add” games? In sd card or in usb?

Thanks

Epe9686518 i agree 100%…

I tried to install RecalBox on my sdcard and -beleive me- i made it possible only once !! I was trying to do it for 2 hours and i couldnt.. Many many bugs , i had no internet (no ethernet at all), but on the other hand i saw same things that i really liked

1) Input configuration (with up to 4 controlls)

2) Update button !!

3) Kodi launch (from inside recalbox)

But the most good one about this, was the fact that you could modify some options like hide kodi in emulationstation, or START KODI ON SYSTEM START UP, avoid x button to start kodi etc) something which – i think – Retropie isn’t capable of??…

Thanks!

[haris1977]

Thanks! I wiil try asap (as i dont have retropie right now)

[haris1977]

That’s good news guys;) Thanks!

And a final question: Any thoughts about a 4 player automatic configuration? (similar to the 1st player setup i mean)??

This would be great…

[haris1977]

The first screen where you set up your controller for retroarch emulators is brilliant. Just a quick question:

What about fba and mame controls? Can you implement the fba2x.cfg file to be auto-created on the start up controller page too?

[haris1977]

Thanks again!!

[haris1977]

Thanks herb:) And my last question: where do i find the codes from my joypad key press?? I need them in fba2x.cfg

[haris1977]

Oh ..just an other quick question..

There are specific emulators (like gba, fba, mame) where the above technique (the ability to auto config your gamepad controls by starting es) doesn’t work. I mean you have to configure it manually..Especially in fba it is difficult, because you need to edit a specific file (fba2x.cfg) and “add” your gamepad’s specific values to this file..

So ..i was wondering..can this controller setup script be updated in order (at least the fba and gba emuls) to be also auto configured???

[haris1977]

Yes but does it play *.wad files?? And if yes where do i put them?

[haris1977]

Thanks:)

[haris1977]

Thanks but..

Will i be able to use the second controller as a second player joypad with this way?

Or will this second controller setup only be applied to control emulationstation? I just want to have a MAIN CONTROLLER (player 1) to control emulation station + player 1 and another controller to ONLY CONTROL player 2/player 3 and NO EMULATION STATION..Is this possible?

[haris1977]

Here is a thought about future update (in script)

Many people complain about the difficulty of connecting 2nd, 3rd or 4th controller.

So to keep things clear and in order i would recommend the programmer/ers to use 4 different joyconfig files (eg joyconfig_p1 for player 1, joyconfig_p2 for player 2 etc) and not only one file.
So in order 4 someone to connect a 2nd controller he will just run joyconfig_p2 file :) (same thing could be also done for wireless xbox and ps3 controllers too)

Of course joyconfig_p2 wont overwrite joyconfig_p1 data in config file

Unfortunatelly I am a linux noob to do it,but can this thought be taken into account??

Thanks;)
