      @lecapitaine What you're wanting doesn't make sense.
      Even if you get what you're trying to do, it won't serve the controller's primary function: gaming. During games you need the select key separately, no wonder it comes standard on all joysticks: it's not optional.

      The hotkey is something optional, you can theoretically configure it as any button (except Start, as it is the button that matches the exit function of the emulator), and theoretically you can exclude all options related to it (you would need an option to exit of the emulator).

      I recommend you review again about adding other buttons to your joystick...

      But, if you want to make your joystick meaningless, the only alternative solution is to use a virtual joystick to fulfill the need for the select key, or, connect a USB keyboard to fulfill this need without modifying the joystick.

      @dab12ac First, please use the forum search system before opening a thread:

      About Nespi4case:
      https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/24395/recalbox-v7-2-1-nespi4case-installation-tutorial About partition SHARE not visible:
      https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/22741/transferring-roms-directly-to-microsd-card-it-works

      You are not able to run Recalbox directly from the SSD because you are doing it wrong:
      Rpi is not designed to boot the system other than from the SD card. You need to install Recalbox on your SD card, and use your SSD to store the ROMS/BIOS/saves/etc, just select the storage location from the Emulationstation menu.

      Watch this video, it might be helpful:

      I am on 6.1.1

      Sorry, but the forum does not support outdated versions, you need to be using the latest version if you want support (and, unfortunately, for versions prior to 7.0, it is necessary to do a clean installation).

      My only complaint is the number of gifs in that post.

      Thanks for keeping us all up to date. No need for apologies, you guys are spending months of your own time to do this, for free.

      Everyone else should be okay with a delayed release along with the 15 minutes it takes to do a clean install.

      Root has a percentage of free space reserved.

      Login as root via ssh
      Password is recalboxroot

      Run df -h
      If it shows the size for "Available" as being "0" and "Use" as 100%, but "Used" is < "Size"...

      Run dumpe2fs /dev/mmcblk0p3 | grep -i reserved
      This will prove the space is reserved.

      Now that space was reserved for the root user so to reclaim that space, run
      tune2fs -m 0 /dev/mmcblk0p3

      Now the root user can run out of space and there are some possible problematic issues that could occur, but you can use your full capacity.

      Warning: This should only be performed by power users who are not afraid of the command line and understand the commands they are running.

      @BlackAzrael the scrape makes a link between some kind of internal database (the gamelist.xml) and the files. If you change the name, you break the link and have to rescrape

      It was in the bios folder 🙂

      No, in Retroarch it was always enabled. I was talking about reformatting the cart in-game (via segacd memory manager)

      Al leatst I will notify the bug to the libretro forums

      Thanks

      I don't really get what you mean. L3 and R3 are buttons, not triggers. Only L2 and R2 can eventually be triggers, depending on the pads. Easy to notice : when you map triggers in ES, they are marked as Axis, not buttons. The analog joysticks are handled, no problem with that.

      I'm sure i didn't answer your question 😮 but recalbox handles everything itself : hats, buttons and triggers/axis, and sets the emulatir up accordingly.

      Fresh build, I just started working with recalbox this week. I am putting a # in front of it, it keeps getting re added to the end of the file! I'm talking about the recalbox.conf. The only thing I could think to do is make the file immutable with: chattr +i recalbox.conf This fixed the issue, but doesn't seem like the best long term solution.

      Clrmamepro is crap, get the right romset there is no way clrmamepro could really downgrade it from 143 to 78. For the 360 controller it's perfectly working, juste activate the xbox360 driver in recalbox.conf (see wiki). Also if it's the wireless one, you'll need the felated dongle to make it work (those controllers are not bluetoith)
