They (the devs) used to tell me it was simple as adding SDL_Joystick to the defines in Visual Studio and it should work. But after many tries I failed to get it working I'm kind of hoping someone like WiSo can figure it out

BTW Linux version allready supports the MS S Controller

Hey Jezz_X,

Thx for the reply (love your work) and nice to know that is possible.

It's should be a must have feature for use PC instead Xbox, so we can finaly watch any HD content with the perfect Media Center out there.

Please Devs, take a look at it.. we will wait for it patiently Smile

Hi Jezz,

unfortunately I have more ideas than time at the moment. BTW I'm still new to the code and it takes me longer to produce something usefully Wink
Let's see...

Thanks but no kudos for me. I've just started and most of the stuff is already in waiting for activation/porting.
