      hi guys, in most emulators I can easily get out using the Hotkey + Start combo ( use gpio commands for my arcade cabinet ), for Amiberry this is not true, what am I doing wrong?

      Very thanks.

        @Space81 It's hard to say without information ...

        What is your hardware?
        What's your version of Recalbox (say the version, don't say "the last one")?
        Did you build your Recalbox yourself, or download a ready-made image from the internet, or did you buy everything ready?

        Have you tried with another joystick?
        Did you make any control customization settings?
        Have you already mapped the joystick on the Emulationstation?
        Have you ever tested in a clean installation?

          thanks for your time : my config is RPI 3b + with a fresh install of RB 7.1.1 downloaded from recalbox.com with arcade GPIO joystick. I don't have the chance to try another jostick, but reading the official documentation it seemed to work by default with HK + Start; I tried to attach a USB keyboard and I can only exit by pressing F12 and then using the mouse to click "quit" from the Amiga emulator.

            @Space81 said in Amiga, Cannot Exit Emulator With Hotkey+Start combo:

            it seemed to work by default with HK + Start

            Yes, by default Hotkey + Start quits the game, as in other systems, so I asked:

            Did you make any control customization settings?
            Have you already mapped the joystick on the Emulationstation?

              1. I haven't customized anything on the controls, only default
              2. Yes, on emulstation it sees as input P1 = "0 GPIO Contoller 1" and as Input P2 = "1 GPIO Controller 2", in fact with the great majority of emulators no problem

              Very Tanks @Zing

                Hi, I understand the problem, the .uae config file that is generated automatically excludes the GPIO 1 controller, inserting only Mouse + GPIO 2 controller between the inputs of the amiberry emulator, probably this is a bug; I tried to save the correct configuration from the Amiberry interface, but if I go back to the emulstation menu and go back to the Amiberry one, the changes are not taken, there is the possibility to modify this * .uae file that creates the emulator ? One last thing, all my roms are in .lha format. Thanks

                    Hi @Zing, I followed your documentation links, but unfortunately, even if I insert the .uae file in the path ( /recalbox/share/system/configs/amiberry/<subsystem>.uae ) indicated with the respective keys relating to the conf of the input to be overwritten, nothing happens.
                    I'm probably missing something, but my custom .uae file contains only key=value relative to the input.

                    Very Thanks.

                      I also tried to put the * .uae file in the dir (... / recalbox / share / roms / amiga600), but the config override does not happen

                        @Space81 According to the tutorial, you need to create a file:
                        /recalbox/share/roms/amiga600/.uaeconfig.uae
                        and a <game>.uae file on the same folder.

                        In addition, I read at the end of the tutorial:
                        "In a few cases (two connected joysticks, ...) the emulator can fail to detect the correct joystick to use. If this is the case, go into the 'Inputs' menu of the GUI and try to change the joystick in Port1 . "

                        And in this post, it seems that this solution worked (I recommend you read it):
                        https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/21807/amiberry-recalbox-7-0-raspberry-3b/18

                        I don't know if this is useful, but maybe you should check:

                          @Zing thanks again, i’ll try your solutions, but i understand, with the RB 6.1.1 and same hardware all was perfect.
                          New Amiberry version in auto conf start don’t read number of joysticks in the right way.

                            I read your topics by translating the first from French, apparently it is a known bug, you just have to wait for the developers, the solutions are only temporary and valid until recalbox turns off.

                            Thanks again,
