    Fixed it! In /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs there was a file named tempconfig.cfg that had input_device = “SFC/USB Pad” which matches the yellow text. Updating that file made them start working.

    Thanks both of you for your help!

    Yes jstest shows select as 6 and 7 as start. When I start a game this is the text I see in yellow:

    Joypad port #0 (SFC/USB Pad) configured

    When I ran the joystick setup from the setup script it said it wrote USB_2-axis_8-button_gamepad.cfg, but I’ve also tried changing USB_Gamepad.cfg and it doesn’t seem to fix it either.

    Correcting the keys in /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes/snes9x.cfg did fix that emulator so I’m assuming it’s a misconfig but I can’t tell what file it’s loading from the text it prints.

    Could it be a problem with auto-config? I can’t seem to find a similar config to snes9x.cfg for all the libretro ones.

    Sure here’s my /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg. And my /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/configs/USB_2-axis_8-button_gamepad.cfg.

    Yes when I start a game very briefly yellow text flashes at the bottom of the screen showing each controller.

    I was able to get hotkeys working in PISNES by changing the key bindings in /opt/retropie/emulators/pisnes/snes9x.cfg but they still don’t work in any of the other emulators. All the others I’m using are part of libretro.

    In the videos it doesn’t say to but am I supposed to change anything in /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/retroarch.cfg?

    So confused!

    Thanks for the quick reply! I previously watched that video and selected option 1. At the very end of my config file is this line:

    input_enable_hotkey = nul

    Based on what he said I removed that line from the bottom of the file and changed this section to:

    # Alternatively, all hotkeys for keyboard could be disabled by the user.
    input_enable_hotkey = alt

    Rebooted and unfortunately they still aren’t working.
