LE12 wiimote problem



Hello,

After a clean install of Libreelec 12 using “LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-retroplayer-20240505-f89e5812.img.gz” on a Raspberry Pi 5, when pairing a Will Remote, a warning to configure a new controller appears (which was not the case with previous Libreelec versions). Selecting Wii Remote and configuring the buttons stops at the Dpad part, with the Dpad entries not being recognised.

The buttons also do not have the same behaviour as before, A does select, but B does a page down, and not sure what the other buttons do now, which makes the Wii Remote not usable to control Libreelec.

Default Joystick drivers are used (Linux).

A post on Libreelec forum does describe the same issue https://forum.libreelec.tv/thread/28418-…e-problem/ (additional log available in that thread) and it has been tested also on a PC with a dongle USB Bluetooth and with those versions of Libreelec:

  • LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-retroplayer-20240505-f89e5812.img.gz
  • LE12 11.95.1
  • LibreELEC 12 Beta1
  • LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0-nightly-20240426-4513878.img
  • LibreELEC-RPi5.aarch64-12.0.0.img

Tests includes changing the Joystick drivers to Udev, adding a joystick.xml file in the keymaps directory, without success in addressing this issue.

Not sure what other test can be done, or how to fix this issue. If more info is needed, or if this post should be in a different section, let me know. Thanks
