        @saver it's likely you have some autofire button and/or combination of your buttons on your xinmo if such thing exists, and your nephew activated it, check the doc

        or your connections were crappy and by pressing a bit violently on the buttons, your nephew created a shortcut, check connections of your buttons

                  The problem is solved fortunately. I tried to connect the hole system with my tv screen via hdmi and everything was OK. So i replaced the hdmi cable of the cabinet with the tv hdmi cable and everythik work perfect. Although i don t think this was the problem. Thank you very much for your time.

                          @saver ssh to your recalbox, type evtest, then test input 0 to see if there are some events happening by themselves with no user action. Press CTRL+C, try then with input 1 etc ...

                          In the end, give me the name of the input(s) that had ghost inputs

                            @substring thank you very much but i need additional help. I run evtest then i press 0 and then i don t know what to do. How can i understand if some events are happening by themselves with no user action?

                              @saver they'd just pop after the description of known events the input reports

                                    @saver nothing happens after the "Testing..." You should try events 2 and 3. By tthe way, are you using the GPIO controllers as you have a xinmo ?

                                          @saver use the recalbox webmanager to edit recalbox.conf and disable the gpio driver. Set controllers.gpio.enabled to 0

                                            I made two arcade cabinet with the same setup and i have this problem only in one of them. Do you thing that if i disable the gpio driver i will fix it?
