To the best of my knowledge is not possible. Note that in Retroarch is possible but not in Retroplayer at the moment.

Most games you can configure what buttons do what. Just do it per game instead of global?

I have a bunch of ROMs for the Arcade emulator, but the controls are all over the place. Jump in one game could be shoot in another game. I made a map of games and button actions here. For example, 1941 B button is 'fire' but for 1943 the mapping changes to Y button for 'fire.'
I have a joy stick, 6 button set up (start, select, and 4 action buttons).
Can I remap the individual ROM inputs one by one so that for all games the A button is 'fire' or 'attack'... B is 'jump'... X for 'special attack' or whatever (you guys get the idea)...
Having 'fire' be so inconsistent is really detracting from my enjoyment because I cant remember the controls from game to game. Ugh. Plz halp.

Per-game button mapping isn't supported yet. This was to keep the initial feature set simple to ease the difficulty of merging large patches into Kodi. We're getting closer to per-game button maps with the introduction of the Port Manager (https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/20505) last month. Someday per-game button maps will be supported. You can follow along in the Player Manager thread (https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=295463&action=lastpost).
