I Have 2 different modelles of 8BitDo controller, one is 8BitDo SN30 Pro and the other is 8BitDo M30, both are Bluetooth controlles.

I have a prorblem that I can't use them both at same time. When I define one then the other stops to work.

I can see when I define them that they both seems to have same "Joystick ID"
M30: 045e:02e0
SN30 Pro: 045e:02e0

I'm not sure why, and I have no clue how to change that.
Does it have something to do whith what mode the controller is set for, X-Box, Switch or Android?
Does anyone know what to do so that I can use them in same core, like in Mega Drive when playing NHL ´96?

Mmh, i thought Sorgelig changed that ages ago? I use a Demonbite adapter with SN30 and M30 pads plugged in, and both are working fine at the same time. They are 2.4GHz though, not bluetooth. Had the same issues as you but the mentioned update fixed that.

Have you tried to remap both pads again in the Mister main menu?

I think the problem may be that the controllers physically map the buttons differently.

OP, are you in DirectInput or XInput mode?

I'm not sure what mode the controlles are set to.
Which one should I use, I have no problem to change to what ever is best

DirectInput will result in less button clash

D-Input, is that Android mode, and X-Input is Windows/Xbox mode?
In The Manual for the M30 they state it like that, Android (D-Input), Windows (X-Input)?

Do you think it will work to use both if using X-Input OR D-Input?

When I set the both controllers to D-Input and I defined the buttons, it started to work. So now I can use both M30 and SN30 Pro in same core/game.
