If you want just look if the system is up or down, you can easly and just connect it (with resistor =>1KOhm) to the power pin of one USB plug. Because PI switch off power on USB if the system is down. Even when power subsist on the board.

@orome START+B boots the pad as a gamepad, not a sa keyboard or whichever fancy behaviour we don't want (the Zero should be started with START+R if i remember correctly).

@Bug first of all, do not be a coward and try to justify what you did. You didn't only removed everything you wrote (including the scripts and wiki page), but also practically erased your register from the forum. That means, you were hidding. Your intentions...? After our last private talk, I suspect you want do build cabinets for sell and have that script as a bait for your "customers".
Secondly, if you have no idea what open source is about, you can google it! You made that code public, willingly, for free (not that I would pay for it). Anyone is allowed to use it as they want according to the way you chose.
We are not discussing about if your code is garbage or not, someone just found a way to revert the mess up you built.
I might add that I took the time to review your code and asked other real programmers to do the same. And you paid us back erasing everything! Without any comment, and deleting your account! From the depths of my guts and as we say in Spanish: "Que hijo de puta!"

yeah, that does happen to almost everyone. Just press the dpad and tadaaaa. In fact i almost like that behaviour ! That way i know the pad has paired

@shep you need press one time. Once press "Y" the game's mark stay favourite with a star on top of your game list and the Favourites tab, if not, just reboot the RECALBOX.

I don't have this issues, functioned just fine.

RPI2+Recalbox V4-Beta5, games on USB stick.

it needs an update of the mame2003 core. Will happen at least in 4.1
