Using an USB cable (required to update master device bluetooth address), plug it to your box and click Home button, leds should stop blinking.
Unplug USB cable, leds are blinking again, after a bit it should stop blinking if not, pair it using Bluetooth configuration menu, controller is now connected using a wireless bluetooth connection.
Now once your controller is paired, copy this file to /storage/.emulationstation/es_temporaryinput.cfg
now connect to your box by SSH, and run this /storage/.kodi/addons/script.sx05re.launcher/bin/bash /storage/.emulationstation/scripts/inputconfiguration.sh
After that when you start ES it should work, Retroarch should also be configured, but there is a small bug that will display the search option if you use the HK+triangle to open the retroarch menu (fixed on the next release of the addon) so if you want to open the menu instead use both thumb buttons.
If you don’t want to do any of this just wait until the next release
I spent all day yesterday trying to fix the PS3 game-pad issue and I think I boiled down to the motion sensors inside the controllers, you can’t configure it properly in ES because those axes are always working (even when the controller is not moving) you can see what I am talking about if you run jstest /dev/input/js0
The solution that RetroPie uses (sixaxis) does not seem to work on CE because the kernel is too old (at leas that is what I think). The workaround I posted here works fine for my PS3 controller (played about 3 hours with no problems, on different Retroarch emulators), but I am not sure if it will work for all PS3 controllers (originals and clones).
If you use a PS3 controller you have 3 options
Use the workaround and hope it will work for you, (the new add-on version will have this included)
Search online for a es_input.cfg that will work for your controller
Use another controller (not sure how you guys can use this for retro, the dpad is horrendous )
For now (until someone with more knowledge comes to help out with a better solution) I am leaving this as it is right now.
Short question. Everytime i start a Dreamcast game, I hear the starting Dreamcast sound and if i press buttons on controller i hear sounds, but i have no picture. TV stays black from starting on a DC game. Had someone the same problem? All other emulators are running fine. THX in advance. J.
hi, above (first page) is the explanation to your question. You can put your roms on any external device… as you read this: „
but If you want to use an external HDD or a USB for your ROMS, make a directory called “roms” in the root of the USB device, then inside create an empty file called sx05reroms , place your ROMS inside the corresponding folder (nes, snes, etc, etc.) then with the device plugged start the add-on.“
I am not sure where the SD card gets mounted. if it gets mounted under /media then you can follow the same instructions, if not, I might need to change the mounting script.
okay from SD Card it works, only problem is that i must insert it after boot.
SD Card is mount to media
other Question, were the hell is emustation here safe the pictures?.
on my sd card i got all pictures for the games
in “.emulationstation/downloaded_images”

here is the solution
During the build phase, make sure the flag -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
with SEGACD i have problems too,

Sega CD I knew about, Picodrive had a bug that I already fixed, but I need to upload a new version, will try to do it soon.
I made so many changes to the core that the add-on script needs to be updated and since its only me working on all of this, it could take some time, sorry.
I can try and upload the compiled cores with those fixes and see if it works for you.
