  1. Hi there, Yes you made a very good point - in answer to your question - I kept RL as I have migrated from HS - and all the artwork etc for bezels etc remains as is - but I will look to remove down the line. BUT - I have tried your suggestion - so mapped PC Engine directly to RetroArch. Firing up on the host it works as expected again - but then when I tried it on STEAM LINK - the same - START Button (Rather than RUN as on local host) turn into ESC etc... BigBox works as expected remotely - so at that stage joypad buttons are being detected correctly (START Button is not ESC - I need to press the A button to 'go back' and the STEAM LINK works as expected on all STEAM Games. SO again - once the emulator is started I seem to revert to Desktop Config for the Joypad........... I'm pretty good with OS's, programming, building arcade cabs etc - but this is really stumping me...... Thanks though
  2. Hi all, I am hoping someone can help point me in the right direction here (this is my first post!). Setting the scene: Windows 10 PC running LaunchBox/BigBox. I have all emulators set via RocketLauncher, from where I have all the emulators configured etc and it all works. Everything works fine on the host PC. All emulators work correctly either stand alone, or via Launchbox/Big Box. RocketLauncher works correctly. I am using an XBOX 360 Controller. I am not using JoyToKey as I have all the emulators configured to use native joypad (I haven't got into those emulators that need mouse/keyboard etc). Again - this works as it should natively on the host. I had the idea to stream to a large TV via SteamLink and this is the problem in a nutshell: BigBox controls are fine from the link - but when a game launches (any emulator) I seem to experience a reset of controls - for example - the 'select' button become TAB, 'start' becomes 'ESC', 'B' becomes 'SPACE'. This is common as far as I can tell across all emulators - obviously they respond differently - so for example - PC Engine does nothing with TAB - but in MAME I get the Game Menu. I thought 'this is a STEAM link control problem' - so I installed MOONLIGHT on my second PC, and my Raspberry Pi - and to my shock I get exactly the same result! So what I really am asking is - has someone else experienced this, and if so how do I fix it? This seems to me like an issue with the nested nature of the scenario - multiple applications being started, and somehow reverting back to a 'keyboard and mouse' or 'desktop' control configuration. I played around with the 'Desktop Configuration' in STEAM Link- but it didn't make any difference - neither did enabling the Launcher options. Apologies if this has appeared elsewhere - but after days of searching I couldn't see anyone else with the same situation! Many thanks in advance!
