DaemonBite Adding Lag [Solved]

[kernelchagi]

Hello. Im trying out daemonbite for 2 players for my cabinet.

I compiled the code from here https://github.com/MickGyver/DaemonBite-Arcade-Encoder and i compiled and flashed into 2 arduinos pro micro without touching anything in the code.

After making all the wiring and try them out i realize that they are adding quite a lot of lag. I dont have the tools to make a formal test but im 100% sure that they add lag because one test that i do with the bridges of the nes version of contra.

Any ideas? What did i make wrong?

Dont know if it is helping but i have 2 daemonbite at the same time and i have the u-boot.exe with this line:
v=loglevel=4 usbhid.jspoll=1 xpad.cpoll=1

Try just one direct into the MiSTer without a USB hub. Maybe the hub you are using is adding lag. Just a guess.

Maybe the game is doing debouncing internally, in a way that adds lag.. the problem with Daemonbite is that debouncing isn't enabled by default. You can set this to 1 in the code before you compile/upload it. Try it out.

I just tryed with debouncing enabled in the code of the daemonbite, it feels exactly the same to me. I tryed also with the fast_polling script on and off, and also with that line code in the u-boot and without, always feels the same. I have the problem when i connect only one daemonbite or both, it doesnt matter. I tryed the game "Gigawing" with my stick with a brook universal fighting board and it feels way more responsive. I dont know what else to try, im just out of ideas.

I dont think since my universal fighting board is working flawlessly using the same hub and with the daemonbite plugged at the same time.

You could try plugging it into a Windows PC and bring up the gamepad test utility to see when you move it and press buttons if there is any significant delay on the screen.

Going to try that, i also got another arduino board, because im thinking it could be that i got a very cheap ones...

Ok, solved. I had the mouse: emu/sniper mapped and that was causing the issue.

I was not believing that i was the only one with this issue! haha

Glad you got it working!
