Hey,

I just discovered that I cannot select my GamePads in "MediaPortal Configuration -> Remote -> Direct Input" anymore. They are usually available in the pulldown menu "Direct Input Device" but it is just blank now.

I tracked down the SVN which first caused the non-function plus the responsible .dll.


- problem is NOT PRESENT RC1 installation
- problem is PRESENT in RC1 SVN Rev18951

- responsible file is RemotePlugins.dll


I did the hard work, now it's your turn

thank you and have a nice evening

I also have this problem using 1.0 RC2 with no SVN. I'm off to look through the change logs for RC2 SVN's but thought I should bump this thread.

[level20peon]

It doesn't work in RC2. I already mentioned that RC1 (!) is the latest working build.

Please attach logs. I will try to give it a look even if I have no gamepad

What logs do you need exactly ? There is a element not visible in configuration, no error is trown. I am attaching the "Configuration.log" files of RC1 and a RC2 with SVN though (Note: There are some TV-Client errors trown because it was a non productive installation, just ignore them).
Maybe there is a hint in the changes done to the "RemotePlugins.dll" I mentioned above.
Thanks for your support.

I was looking for some info like:

2008-08-22 20:58:17.410687 [Info.][Config Main]: DirectInput: not enabled

Simone

[chemelli]

Please test attached dll and report your experience.
Always attach log please.

Simone

[level20peon]

Gee, this is embarrassing. Works now, thank you.


-level20peon

[chemelli]

so it works with latest SVN or with attached dll ?

Simone

[level20peon]

I think I am just stupid. Forgot to clearly say that it works now _with your attached dll_
