About This File

Trackball & Spinner Support for BigBox Navigation.  Supports X & Y axis (configurable) to simulate up/down/left/right menu movement.   Option menu support to configure speeds and behavior.  

Its not perfect, but it does work pretty well.  It disables itself when a game is launched.

If there is interest in the source, I can put it up on github or something.   Just ask.

This is pretty great!

Trackball control is basically like a joystick or keyboard: x-axis jumps a letter. (# - A - B - C - etc)  y-axis cycles through individual games.

Spinner control is treated like the x-axis, so turning the dial jumps letters.  That seems like unexpected behavior though... If there was an option to set the spinner to use the y-axis, this would be perfect.  A sensitivity adjustment would be nice too, but I'm thrilled this exists at all.

There is a sensitivity adjustment...  at least there should be.  

Swapping axis's is a good idea - I thought I included that?   I'll have to take a look.

You may have.  I'll see if I can figure out the settings in a few days and will report back.
