Hello, I am trying to bind some keyboard keys to various functions. For example, I want to press the “m” key to bring up the retroarch menu. So I added these lines to batocera.conf:
# If this hotkey is bound to either keyboard, joybutton or joyaxis,
# all other hotkeys will be disabled unless this hotkey is also held at the same time.
# Alternatively, all hotkeys for keyboard could be disabled by the user.
global.retroarch.input_enable_hotkey_btn = "nul"
global.retroarch.input_menu_toggle = m
The comments in the above text are from a standard retroarch.cfg file.
I configured both of my controllers and my keyboard in EmulationStation to NOT use a hotkey enable button, which should allow me to just press only “m” to bring up the menu. This approach has worked for me on a RetroPie setup, but unfortunately I can’t figure out how to get it to work on Batocera.
My complete batocera.conf is available here:

All the lines I added are at the bottom of the file. I would appreciate any help in getting this to work.
Thank you!
