MAMEOX was made with illegal development tools, etc - which lead to it being despised. The case came down, if I remember correctly, that an issue with the CHORE people were having with 'swapping' a single controller between two players. Then people got an idea that they could get 2 players, each with individual controls if they run the games in cocktail mode. Then the requests came in quite often for changes in source to allow the second player's screen to be rotated 180 degrees, essentially making it an upright game, but with two separate controllers.

I would have simply mapped both controllers as player 1's and avoided the hassle - provided the other player doesn't keep screwing with your game
