The option you want to set it for is "UI Cancel"

Also to add, if you hadnt set that default.cfg to read only, MAME deletes the config if you start it without a controller turned on, so that is what was happening there.

Also to add: If you're only going to use Xbox controllers with Mame, set up your controls and copy default.cfg to the ctrlr folder and rename to (for example) Xbox.cfg. Then in mame.ini in the "Core Input Options" section, add the name of your controller config.

#
# CORE INPUT OPTIONS
#
coin_lockout              1
ctrlr                     Xbox

The controller config will persist and does not have to be set to Read Only.

I have a big doubt....

I'm preparing LaunchBox with all platforms...but the games must be unzipped ???? In a individual folder for game ??

For MAME i think not, but for others platform ??

I see the difference... for example for SEGA DREAMCAST if games was zipped, they goes slow and with problems audio, while unzipped in folders, they are incredible perfect...

What do you tell me about this ?? Sega Game Gear, Play Station etc....

Maybe if i can i leave only MAME games in zip and all the rest if is possible is better then is unzipped right ??

This is my big doubt

For MAME Arcade machines (games), you want to keep them zipped.  But if you're running console systems that use chd's through MAME, those should be unzipped.

Those you probably actually want to use an emulator other than MAME and it would depend on the emulator is it even 'allows' zipped files.
