No controls when driver is sdl2 and games are launched through command line

Open Tartifless opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Hello, When running a game with the following CLI, controls from my xbox controller do not respond with dolphin: start retroarch.exe -L "C:\emulators\retroarch\cores\dolphin_libretro.dll" "C:\roms\gamecube\Mario Kart Double Dash! [GM4P01].iso"

When opening Retroarch, loading the core and loading content, everything works great.

The settings in "retroarch.cfg" are exactly the same, i am using the following:

  • video driver: GL
  • input driver: dinput
  • gamepad driver: sdl2

This is a weird behaviour, it seems like it happens only with sdl2 driver, when using xinput driver, everything works just fine, even through command line.

Windows11 pro Retroarch 1.15 8bitdo pro2 controller in xinput mode

When using the controller in switch mode, SDL works fine with command line, so it seems this happens when using a xinput controller in sdl mode and when running command line.
