Overview

So far it's possible to exit emulation using keyboard Esc key (or mice, going via the menu).

For a smoother user experience, it would be useful to be able to define a combination of controller keys (with a certain press duration) that would also allow the emulation to be stopped.
i.e: left trigger + right trigger + + button for x sec

Smaller details

The Exit function from a key already exist within Ryujinx

Nature of request

Add the ability to use a combination of gamepad commands to quit emulation (customizable combination)

Why would this feature be useful?

This is the only option missing to get the full gamepad-in-hand experience (for exemple wou can include Ryujinx game within Playnite, with a custom launcher for each game and control everything from your gamepad, except exiting the game).

Seconded!

I'm streaming my entire emulation setup through Apollo to my TV so I can play on the couch.

Ryujinx is the only console out of 30+ emulators where I have to get up, go to another room, turn my monitor on, exit the emulator via MnK, turn my monitor off, go back to the other room, and then select a different game via my controller (through ES-DE).

Then I have to do it all over again when I want to stop playing for the night, lol. Needless to say, Ryujinx is unfortunately my least used emulator on my couch because of this :(

For now, I can use https://qjoypad.sourceforge.net, but it only works under Linux X11 and can't assign key combinations, just one joystick key to one keyboard key.

A temporary solution that I found was antimicrox application. I set select on my controller to ALT and start button to F4 and inserted a 2.5 second delay before each button activates so it doesn't interfere with the emulator/game. Saved the profile and set it as default for all controllers within the program so when any of my controllers connect it'll be able to exit ryujinx
