Hey man appreciate you taking the time to respond, half the fun for me is fighting with stuff to get it to work when I can’t but this is a little different because all of it is so new.

I putty’d in with just the pi/raspberry credentials.

pi@retropie /dev/input $ sudo /home/pi/MyJoy/loadmap /home/pi/MyJoy/kodi.map
0 joysticks.
Found device Tronsmart (vendor=0x11c0, product=0x5500)
Found device JOYMAP Code Device (vendor=0x00ff, product=0x0000)
10 button assignments.

0 axes assignments.

I do not know if it states “0 joysticks” is normal or not but that is what I see when trying to just run the map ( assuming I did that right lol ) and nothing on the screen when I press the buttons in a putty window.

I’ll report back when I try it as an xbox controller via the link you provided, thanks again!
