@paradadf I have done it... But I suck at getting it to look right, feel free to clean up my info. Look at the bottom:

@cosmo0 This Arcademanager is GREAT! Pretty cool stuff! Now, I do agree that you should look into "The Bezel Project". They have a lot of individual bezels for a lot of systems! Because of you and your Arcademanager I was able to use them manually I had no way of making it work, and the Recalbox wiki is plain wrong. It does not work. But the way you did it with a subfolder for the config + image, and use a config file to point to that work great. I now am able to manually add bezels fom "The Bezel Project". Add those bezels to your manager and make it easy for every system available

How do I install latest unstable on my RPI3?

I know how to edit files, but I need help with what to write in the custom.sh to launch the driver.

I started with a fresh 8GB SD class 10 card, since I am now using a 250GB USB HD.
I figured out why the games where no longer scraped, and it is due to a write error so the gamelist.xml files where corrupt.
I had all but 1 in my backup so they are back and working. I have to be better at shutting down instead of pulling the power.

Wifi is also working now.

I have not changed the layout of the X-Arcade this time, and out of the box a/b and x/y are swapped after starting a NeoGeo or Mame game. And they stay swapped until reboot.

This does not happen when starting NES or SNES games.

Does your controller get reversed if you enter Neo-Geo Metal Slug and exit?

I received a Xin-Mo adapter in the mail yesterday. Maybe I should just use that for the X-Arcade and order a new one for my kabinet. The buttons and sticks have not arrived.

And how do I reconfigure when I do not have the button layout? I'm unable to enter the menu and when I try all hell breaks loose. Suddenly I have Sega starting, and I can still hear my old seesion in the background. If I exit the Sega game I'm back in emustation but still I hear the old session in the background. Everything is revered and a reboot is the only thing that works.

The stupid thing is that I can not find the correct button layout so I can navigate the menus.

It works with my 360 controller, but I can only configure that one with the 360 controller.

Last thing that happend now was that suddenly most systems are no longer scraped. I had scraped them all. I did make a backup of the gamelist.xml so I could copy them back in. The problem is WIFI stopped working. I get a configuration error. Same settings as earlier.

There is something going on with my setup, I can't figure it out, and the button layout is wrong.

The layout is inconsistent.

If I boot Recalbox the button layout is like I configured it.
If I start a NES or SNES game it works fine.
When I exit it, it is still the same.

If I start a NeoGeo or MAME game, when I exit X/Y and A/B are flipped.
It might be others too, but I have no way of finding that out.

If I do not start NeoGeo or MAME but just let i stay on for a while, the same thing happens.

Yes, only 1 flipper, (just like the Tankstick, the second on the tankstick is a mousebutton).
I was hoping it would be possible to use the same button as Select/Coin and as a Hotkey.

I usually do not play those... But I see the problem. So in games like SF2 the triggers are not used?
I'm just thinking of the Xbox 360 controller and with triggers I mean L2 R2.

I have no problem with your setup, just wondering why you reverse the XY and AB buttons?

Where do I change the Mame buttons so that I get them in the correct sequence?

I have the Dual Stick and it starts up with no delay. I have not mapped any buttons, it just works in 4.0b5.

Maybe I should try the mapper, but I had a problem with it earlier. Bought an old Arcade cabinet and had my old X-Arcade controllerboard V1 lying around, and connected that to the original Acade control. Since that had to few buttons I used the mapper to remap to something that kind of worked, and I was using the P2 buttons as well.

After som modifying I got my X-Arcade stick in the Arcade, and tried to map the buttons, and I was unable to press OK at the bottom. Not with the keyboard, not with the X-Acade or my 360 controller. The only button working was the old but wrong Back button and that just dropped the setup and nothing got remapped.

In the end I had to reinstall recalbox to get my X-Arcade working.

Now it works, but I do not like the button layout, and I have not found the buttons.

What works now is:
? = I have no idea if that button does anything

P1 Start P2 Start
1 row is X Y ?
2 row is A B ?
3 row is ? Select
Flipper is ?
P2 rows are the same

In mame
P1 Start P2 Start
Flipper + P1 = Exit emulator
Select = Coin button
A = BTN1
X = BTN2
Y = BTN3

In Nes/Snes and any retroarch game
A&B are swapped. (Why are they swapped?)

What I would like, is that the 6 buttons would be BTN1 -> 6 in Mame.

The layout would then be:
P1 & P2 = P1 & P2 Start
L&R Flipper = P1 & P2 Select/Coin
L Flipper= Hotkey
Row 1: X Y R1 or BTN1 BTN2 BTN3
Row 2: A B R2 or BTN4 BTN5 BTN6
Row 3: L1 L2 or BTN7 BTN8

Is there a description/image of the button layout?

I'd like to know how to use my buttons. Right now it's not very playable.
