      So, I have a recalbox within my arcade station. I have a huge problem when comes the time to use a controller. I would like Retroarch to see that a controller is plugged (or connected via bluetooth) and put it into port 1 with his previously saved mapping buttons. Normally, with retroarch on the pc i have no difficulty with this. But since im using an arcade, it sees that there is 2 remote already plugged in (2 players arcade) so even if i connect a 3rd remote, i always need to manually change it to port 1, then map the buttons all the time because it won<t remember them (it will actually keep the mapping fromt he arcade remote who was previously on port 1).

      Any idea how to fix this? I tried many things and they are all making things worse.

        • What is your version of Recalbox (say the version, don't say "latest")?
        • Did you build your Recalbox yourself, or download a ready-made image from the internet, or did you buy everything ready-made?
        • What is your hardware (PC/Rpi0,1,2,3,4)?
        • Have you ever tried resetting to factory settings? This option is available in the advanced settings menu, you don't lose any personal files, but you lose all custom settings.

          @zing thanks i found how to fix it. I can't update the recalbox on my arcade machine (that's the first thing i did when i received it and it buggued and couldn't reuse the sd card).

          I just needed to go in controller and choose the input of each remote. It was really simple.
