Hi, I was trying to use a couple different Bluetooth controllers with my Anbernic RG SP: an 8Bitdo SN30 Pro, and a RetroFighter BattlerGC Pro. Neither had its buttons mapped correctly. Also, when I was pairing the controllers my RG SP sometimes got the d-pad stuck in the down position, making the cursor in the settings app always go to the bottom of the list until I exited settings.

Since I don't know anything about this code base I had Claude do most of the work. The main points are:

1. There's support for button mapping, and the config file is skeleton/SYSTEM/h700/etc/controllers.cfg. I added entries for my 8Bitdo SN30 Pro and RetroFighter BattlerGC Pro.
2. The Input app (minput) shows more info about button presses.
3. The Bluetooth settings don't get stuck on button presses.
4. Bluetooth pairing tries to automatically connect to a device, seems to work okay.
5. Added a "reset bluetooth" option to the bluetooth settings. It removes all devices and sets the sample rate back to default of 48kHz.

I tried this on my RG SP and it worked for my two controllers. I don't have any other of the devices supported by NextUI to verify if this helps them.

Oh I really want to try this. Let me know if I can also help with adding more controller mappings.

@LazaroFilm I published a build at https://github.com/AloneInTheDank/aitd_NextUI/releases/tag/pre-2026-11-06

It's only been tested on my RG SP, but it worked!

This could be useful to implement more controller mappings: https://github.com/mdqinc/SDL_GameControllerDB

Here is my config for DualShock 4. It is named with a generic name in the bluetooth and input menu.
Note: L3 is not working for some reason. I only assumed the button number but it still isn't detected in game, but R3 is properly detected.
ABXY are determined by their placements according to nintendo positions.

[Wireless Controller] # DualShock 4 uses this generic name.
button.0 = B #cross
button.1 = A #circle
button.2 = X #square
button.3 = Y #triangle
button.4 = L1
button.5 = R1
button.8 = SELECT
button.9 = START
button.10 = MENU
button.11 = L3 #not working 
button.12 = R3

axis.2 = L2
axis.5 = R2
axis.0 = LX
axis.1 = LY
axis.3 = RX
axis.4 = RY
