    I get an error saying “Warning: unknown command – “enable”

    /etc/rc.local: 26: /etc/rc.local: pscan: not found”

    I put in a 30s delay on boot to give me more time to pair, see the instructions here https://www.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/ps3-bluetooth-controller-correct-method-for-retropie-2-3/. (look at comments 84419 and 84681)

    It would be ideal if you could connect anytime though, and I still have issues where sometimes only one controller will connect at a time.

    Thought I mention that my issues have since been resolved. However, I did so many things I’m not sure which one worked. I changed my overclock settings, expanded the root memory size, and reset my pw.
    I think it sounds like a memory issue, since some of us are getting some systems to work that others aren’t. Even if you’ve already done it, expand the root memory again just in case.

    Im having the same issue. I have some nes, snes and n64 on there now. But when I try to add anything else it white screens on load. As soon as I delete those files it boots up just fine. I have expanded the filesystem, that was my first thought too though. It says I have 11G available.

    @Haris I was able to get both controllers configured at the same time, I just had them both plugged in when I used the option in retropie_setup.sh. They both work over bluetooth now as well!

    In my first set up I was using these SNES usbs, http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Controller-Nintendo-Not-Machine-Specific/dp/B001VDY808/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1398810942&sr=8-1&keywords=snes+controller

    TERRIBLE d-pad. Just awful. Left and right would almost always register as up or down. And when you’re playing old games that mostly rely on timing and pixel precision (like say Mega man, Mario, Zelda and oh I don’t know, 90% of the games released on consoles at that time) it means you’re going to be frustrated.

    So I bought a Bluetooth dongle (ASUS USB-BT211) and was determined to get my PS3 controllers working. Months later, here I am with only one functioning controller. I spent many hours trying to piece together the tutorial I’ve seen on the these forums and others. And it never worked. But, the method that DID work (and I just didn’t know existed) was using retropie_setup.sh.

    Still that only works for one controller at a time apparently. I tried running the PS3 controller setup with 2 controllers plugged in, they will both connect independently but when you try them both only one works. I am using a USB Hub, so I don’t think power is an issue.

    Any thoughts?

    They should all work as long as they are generic usb controllers. Where you might run into a problem is B and A on a NES controller might not register the same input as the X and O on the PS1 controller. If that’s the case there may be a way around it using retroarch menu, but I’m not sure.
