Remove/Hide input buttons on game startup?

Hi all,
Is there a way to remove or hide the button mapping pop-up that appears in the top left when a game starts? I use my MiSTer on a cab and it totally throws me out of the experience. Thanks.

Edit the MiSTer.ini on the root of your SD card and set controller_info to 0.

I wanted to do the same thing on my cab

I have edited the MiSTer.ini

; 1-10 (seconds) to display controller's button map upon first time key press
; 0 - disable
controller_info=6

and changed to set controller_info=6 to set controller_info=0 but the mapping pop up still appears, I tried a space then 0

Is there any thing else to do?

Bump,

is it possible Remove/Hide input buttons on game startup? I have tried 0 to disable, it does not change anything, still shows the input buttons on start up.

; 1-10 (seconds) to display controller's button map upon first time key press
; 0 - disable

Code: Select all

; 1-10 (seconds) to display controller's button map upon first time key press
; 0 - disable
controller_info=0

That's all. If it's still showing up for you, make sure you made the change to the correct config profile(s) -- there are four of them.

Yes it works,

The reason it was not working is because I was editing the Mister.ini file from the SD card on my PC

This time around I changed the settings in the ini from the Mister OSD while it was running on my cab.

the mapping is now hidden,

Thanks again
