Juyao Dual Arcade

b4i4no

Hi guys (sorry for any written mistake);
I'm using Batocera 5.17 Standard Computer (x86 64 bits) and trying to configure a Juyao Dual Arcade USB that I have...
What can I do so far? I configured P1 and be able to navigate on menu, but when I start any game, the game loads but not even one button works.. If I try to configure the P2, it overcome P1 setup and become a P1, but without work anyway on a game...
I did some research and I know that I need to have an usbhid to add somewhere and enable the P2 buttons. Some places say to put that information on /boot/config.txt, but it doesn't exist. Other places says /recalbox/share/system/recalbox.conf... I added it to the bottom, but doesn't work either.
Can anyone give me any directions?
So far..
My USBHID is usbhid.quirks=0x0314:0x0328:0x040
I'm using Batocera 5.17 64bits for PC
On my laptop I use Windows 10 and WinSCP to comunicate with Batocera on my bartop.

i've to add it here :
https://github.com/batocera-linux/batocera.linux/blob/master/board/batocera/x86/kernel_patches_4.17/linux-usbhid-quircks.patch

we're releasing 5.18 this time. once 5.18 is out, i can modify and build an image so that you can test and that i include it for 5.19.
please remember me that in 1 week.

Thanks for your help nadenislamarre , but I don't know to do apply this patch. I'm noob when we talk about linux commands, can you send me a noob friendly guide?
Also, I'd be glad to test stuff and help anyway that a could.

nadenislamarre

don't apply it. just remember to build a test image for you to test in 7 days (i hope 5.18 will be released).
you will just to unzip a file on your usb key.

nadenislamarre Alright! Thank you in advance for all your work. See you in 7 days.

nadenislamarre Hey dude, how are you? Here we are and 5.18 is out! Can you build that particular image to me to test?

nadenislamarre

hum,

in fact, if you check this line :

https://github.com/batocera-linux/batocera.linux/blob/master/board/batocera/x86/kernel_patches_4.17/linux-usbhid-quircks.patch#L12

you will notice that these values are already applied.
are you able to play with evtest to see if the joystik is detected and what is the issue more precisely ?

nadenislamarre I tried the build 5.18 but it didn't work out of the box. I ran those comands and results are here: https://pastebin.com/aSWzVtgQ
The problem stays the same. On batocera menu I'm able to configure one player but it doesn't work on any game. If I configure the 2nd player, it becomes the 1st player and the 1st stops working (and also doesn't work on any game).
That is my board (maybe helps)... https://photos.app.goo.gl/QWsfsmPyDMrnq8hz9

According to you file, linux sees your pads as only one. It's why when you configure player 2, player 1 stopped to work.

/dev/input/event2: D_R_M JUYAO Dual Arcade

if you try an other linux system, with usbhid.quirks = 0x314: 0x328: 0x040, do you see 2 pads ?

nadenislamarre I used to use this pad with retropie on Raspberry Pi 2 (after added that line) and it recognizes like a charm. But now I changed from RP2 to PC inside my arcade cabinet.

nadenislamarre Today I tried Retropie over Xubuntu 18.04.1, but it didn't recognize even 1st player... I guess I'll go back to Raspberry Pi. =[

@nadenislamarre I tried the last recalbox available for pc and it works flawlessly. Thanks for your help. If you need to test something to improve batocera, let me know.

nadenislamarre

b4i4no can you test the last beta image here :
https://batocera-linux.xorhub.com/upgrades/x86_64/beta/last/C/

it should solve your issue.

nadenislamarre This image didn't boot. =[
