[MacGyver]

Just tested the new LibreElec build "LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.0-devel-20161005162640-r24139-g79bbcc1" and it has some controller issues.

The controller input setup menu is doing that thing where when you select a button to set and press enter/select, it skips that button and goes straight to the next. (spastic mappings follow as it is skipping or setting the buttons to something on its own).

The Playstation controller xmls may have been scrambled at some point, this is an excerpt of the default genesis setup in all the Playstation controller files in "\usr\share\kodi\addons\peripheral.joystick\resources\buttonmaps\xml\linux\".

Code:

<controller id="game.controller.genesis">
            <feature name="a" button="15" />
            <feature name="b" button="14" />
            <feature name="c" button="13" />
            <feature name="down" button="14" />
            <feature name="left" button="11" />
            <feature name="mode" button="0" />
            <feature name="right" button="12" />
            <feature name="start" button="3" />
            <feature name="up" button="13" />
            <feature name="x" button="10" />
            <feature name="y" button="12" />
            <feature name="z" button="11" />
        </controller>

but the d-pad should be

Code:

<feature name="up" axis="4" />
            <feature name="right" button="5" />
            <feature name="down" button="6" />
            <feature name="left" button="7" />

and the first issue mixed with the second will render genesis unplayable for any new users with Sixaxis controllers that don't know how to manually edit their xmls in \Kodi\userdata\addon_data\peripheral.joystick\resources\buttonmaps\xml\linux\ to fix the mappings.
