X-Box Controller
@mholgatem the snes update helped and the Xbox controller is working better. I still can't figure out the A+B Nintendo problem and can't get the two controllers working yet but I think I may have just screwed with too many settings. I'…

2 USB ports, how do I set controls for two xbox controllers?
Hey @dekkres, did you figure out how to fix the NES A+B thing? I'm having the same problem.

PiPlay not using USB controller as input. [Solved]
Other than toggling the Xbox controller setting on in piplay, no. The f710 worked out of the box. I did not have luck with the f310 but I never got it powered on. I assumed it was because I needed it connected through a powered USB hub but have not …

PiPlay not using USB controller as input. [Solved]
I had luck with a wireless Logitech f710. The mode toggle switch needs to be set to X. After that it worked exactly like a USB Xbox controller.

X-Box Controller
Thanks again @mholgatem, I will try that when I get home from work. On a similar subject, is there anything special I need to do to get 2 Xbox controllers working? I'm just hoping for some early advice before I run into possible problems.

Thanks @mholgatem however the issue persists. I copied your map exactly but have the same issue. The A button on the xbox controller exits from the SNES emulator whenever it is pressed regardless of what it is assigned to in the controller setup. …

What game do you play most on your bartop? Whats your age?
Street Fighter 2, Pacman/Mrs Pacman, Bubble Bobble, Sunset Riders, Mortal Kombat, Narc. All favorites of my brother and I, 36 & 35 years respectively. I am very much looking forward to having my son play through many of these classic games I gre…

Feature Requests: What do you want to see in PiPlay?
I'm not sure if this has been suggested before, but any thought on a favorites list. Perhaps a separate folder on the main menu to store a list to launch any game from any emulator. I apologize if this has already been posted.

Beta 7 is up
Your instructions worked perfectly @mholgatem. SNES 2nd player worked immediately. Thanks as always.

beta6 and nes isn't still working
I believe we have a fix, at least for my setup. I'm using a powered HDMI to VGI cable to a 5:4 monitor with a max res of 1280 x 1024. Remove both hash marks from "force counsel size" to force a 720 resolution as well as removing # f…

I will continue testing other settings but if anyone successfully gets NES working while using a HDMI to VGA adapter please post your hardware and settings here.

beta6 and nes isn't still working
@mholgatem OK, I have one romset labeled U.S. so I guess I'll assume that is NTSC. Same usual problem with those. I grabbed a few files from theoldcomputer and loaded those and got this error: FDS BIOS ROM image missing: /home/pi/.fceux/disksy…

@mholgatem I honestly don't know, nor do I know how to tell the difference. I have two separate nes romsets. Neither seem to work currently. What should I have?

beta6 and nes isn't still working
@mholgatem you'll have to excuse my ignorance as I am still new to this but I'm not sure exactly. I just boot piplay to the main menu, select a nes rom and the result I described occurs. In beta 5 I had the same problem but was able to exi…

beta6 and nes isn't still working
Hey mholgatem, I have that same problem with nes and that change to the command line didn't seem to help. After trying to load a rom it boots back to the rom list for just a second before the screen blacks out. If I escape out the main menu sho…
