@oyyodams thank you very much. I hope with the ofdicial image to solve the problem.

Hello again. I install the official recalbox image but i still have the same problem. Here is what is written to recalbox.conf. The gpio controllers are already set to 0. Do i have to put # in the beggining of the sentence?

------------ D2 - GPIO Controllers ------------

GPIO Controllers

enable controllers on GPIO with mk_arcarde_joystick_rpi (0,1)

controllers.gpio.enabled=0

mk_gpio arguments, map=1 for one controller, map=1,2 for 2 (map=1,map=1,2)

controllers.gpio.args=map=1,2

@saver Nope, no need to comment the line, it's set to 0 so it is disabled.

Now the player 2 buttons are unplugged. I try to isolate the problem but u fortunately i can t

@saver nothing seems to happen on your xinmo. Do you still have ghost inputs if you unplug your xinmo ?

[saver]

@substring when the problem began i had those inputs even with the xin mo unplugged. Now i haven t try it again. I have already replaced the whole xin mo set exept the buttons, the raspberry pi , the sd card and all the cables. The only thing i haven t replaced yet is the screen because i haven t a second one. But i still have the problem. And it begins after 2 or three hours or more after switching on the console and not from the beginning. I made a second bartop cabinet with the same setup for my brother with no problem at all. Mine bartop has the problem. I am so desperate!

[Substring]

@saver you have to run evtest when the problem does happen, and run evtest on ech input device

[saver]

@substring i tried yesterday to run evtest when the problem began again but i noticed that the pie was out of internret connection. Then i tried to connect to my wifi and i saw instead of my wifi key this https://postimg.cc/image/ilx9c1jkn/343a9b6e/.
I didn t touch anything. I think that if i manage to put my wifi key and connect to my wifi i will solve the problem. But temporarily. Can you think what is going on now?

[Substring]

@saver the wifi key is encrypted (hence enc:) for security purpose

[saver]

@substring so i guess this is not the broblem?

[Substring]

@saver nope. But why are you losing lan connection ?

[saver]

@substring i realy don t know. But i have the same problem even without connection at all

[saver]

Could you post a picture about your connections INSIDE the bartop, buttons and joysticks. Mass (-) connection needs to be connected in chain from one button to the next, otherway you risk HF disturbances. Same problème for switching power supply units near the mass cables. If they have no metallic case and are from the type to put on the table near a notebook, or in socket far away, together with parallel mass wires, deadly.
Also it can just be a defect 5V power supply unit, because I read that it arrive after some time only. I would change this first. And take an 3A Aukru or Northpada

Here is photos of my setup. I have built two identical bartop cabinets https://postimg.cc/gallery/20r8hezj0/026a7816/ with different screens one for me and one for my brother. Only mine has the problem. I replaced everything from my cabinet. Now the second player is unplugged. https://postimg.cc/gallery/10wc7yuzg/eff0777a/
I have followed directions from here

Ps. I have my cabinet over my laptop and near my router. Is it a problem?

@saver
Did you also change the power supply of your PI ? Apart you have very long wires everywhere. I would first unplug the openend wires on the Gpio and not stay them connected with pluged encoder. If not this makes antenna. Also better to squize the oversize wires (as you did with power supply) instead rolling them up. But if you tell that the problem occurs after some time only, power supply is a possibility. Anyway it should be a pure hardware problem .

[Substring]

most probably a generic ground problem ?
