Screen dims on Odin 2

[JESTSTAR]

The screen is very dark looking in LB unless I have a menu open, then it returns to normal brightness. I don't have this issue on my Odin 1. Can someone help?

Fairly certain this is something the Odin 2 is doing. I have the same issue on mine and I haven't been able to figure out the best way to address it.

Update: The screen will not dim until I press one of the buttons on the controller. The screen stays bright if I navigate only with touch controls.

Update: I was excited when I saw this in todays patch notes for the Odin 2...

Sadly the issue persists in Launchbox. The screen still dims when pressing any button on the controller 😢

New firmware update being released today from AYN for the Odin 2 v1.0.0.266. Fingers crossed this fixs it in this update 🙏

Update: even worse news… after the firmware update Launchbox had an update available that failed to install. The install would freeze and force close launch box. Any help here would be appreciated, thank you.

I also have this issue with a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro and KT1RC. Both will dim the display when in LaunchBox

Hi guys, I'm new to this thread. Was wondering, has anyone found a solution to the screen dimming on the odin 2? Launchbox is awesome, but with the screen dimming like this it's pretty much ruining the experience for me. I'm on the latest version 1.14

I am also running Launchbox on Odin 2 Pro, latest fw update. Latest Launchbox beta, and i have the screen dimming issue, exactly as described above by @JESTSTAR

Tried contacting AYN, hoping that they can fix stuff. IK really want to use Lauchbox on Android also, besides my Lauchbox/Bigbox on PC

I can hereby report that the latest Odin 2 update fixes the dimming issue in the Launchbox app

Ah nice, I haven't had the time to play with mine much recently but I'll have to pull it out and see if it's resolved on mine as well.
