It could be a problem with [hid], but [hid] really just reports and translates events it gets from the OS. I haven't seen any bugs yet where it wasn't reporting events that it was in fact getting from the OS, but there is a first time for everything.
In any case, getting the info from HID explorer will help to narrow down the problem. .hc On May 14, 2007, at 2:17 PM, Kyle Klipowicz wrote: > Yes, snes9x is a Mac OS X application running on the same machine, and > the button presses do work with it.
