MiSTer FPGA Forum

Does the controller have slow responses when plugged in via USB? Might be worth a quick check to rule out a hardware issue with the controller. USB is no problem, plus this is my favourite controller, so I kinda use it everywhere I can on the regular. Works totally fine through USB. I'll do a short temporary update saying initial impressions of th...

I'll give it a try, thanks! Admittedly, the Bluetooth receiver I use right now is just a standard nub receiver with no antennae. By plugging it into the back of the MiSTer where the USB ports are, maybe it's getting interference from another one of my devices nearby. I ordered a similar pigtail and it'll arrive in a day, I'll test it out and report...

I did swap out the power supply on the fuse front, will just have to ride it out for a while to see if it helps there. Regarding the controller, I have it on X-Input and remapped the controller on the base MiSTer main menu (to navigate the OSD in general) and per core (for the games). The issue hasn't been the controller not responding at all to un...

There's a LOT of good things to look into here, thanks everyone! Suggestion 1: The Pro 2 controller had been working so flawlessly until now that I honestly stopped thinking about controller firmware. I used 8BitDo's official update tool, and found the controller was like 4 or 5 versions behind current, so I updated it. Suggestion 2: Again, my Pro ...

Hey all, First off, LOVE the MiSTer, best gaming purchase I had in a long time alongside the Steam Deck. I've been pairing it with an 8BitDo Pro 2 controller and it's been mostly bliss for over a year. However, after a recent update_all script run, over the last month or so, my MiSTer has been dropping connection to my controller like it never has....

It's too easy to activate these by accident, I do it semi-often. It's been noted elsewhere that it's a real problem for speedrunners and the like who have to throw out entire runs if they accidentally activate rapid fire. I agree with this, even not as a frequent speedrunner but just a casual player who likes to tinker settings here and there, you...

That's a good mindbending layering of info, but good info regardless, thanks. I suppose it'll be easier if I just keep most of the cores on a 4:3 ideal based on what a CRT would display instead of thinking via internal resolutions. Maybe a couple 16:9 opportunities in PSX/Saturn or something, but majority just 4:3.

Hello all, I was hoping to get some clarity on the easiest way to understand how the MiSTer displays aspect ratios. I stream on Twitch and I want to create different overlays for each console I play. I'm pretty OCD about this stuff and I want to have the binding box for the system on the overlay match the game, no black borders or anything once you...
