PC Mod

Hi all

I want my Legends Ultimate to run exclusively on batocera, so I can have one UI for all emulation.

I plugged my PC via USB extender directly to the controller board and it works kind of all right. I really struggle with control mapping in certain emulators but I think ill be able to get there with help of Batocera community.

Problem starts with the pinball buttons as they I think they are wired in some weird way. Left ones are triggers and right ones are bumpers (i think). Do i need a USB encoder replacement to get this fixed?

Also, anyway I could connect directly into the screen? Rather than going through the HDMI port on the front.

Lastly, i wouls like the power button to start my pc at the same time. Any ideas

Thanks

Turtle Beach Gaming Headset

Hi all

I recently accidentally broke off audio jack of my Turtle Beach gaming headset.

I cut the wire and inside I have a copper wire braided around a white wire and pink+green braided around blue wire.

I have a replacement jack which has three posts going to the jack pin and one post going to the jack's body.

How am i supposed to wire it?​

Thanks

EDIT

I should also add that copper is without any shielding, white shielding has more copper wires within, red wires are without any shielding, blue wires are within blue shielding and green wires are wrapped around more green wires within clear shielding.

Is there any point of me actually going ahead with this repair? How am I going to keep the wires from touching once I solder them within a replacement audio jack?

Identifying phone from my childhood

Hi all

I wonder if anyone will be able to help me here.

I'm trying to remember a phone from when I was younger. Circa 2008, I believe it was grey/black and with orange accents (unsure about that), it had your classic 12 key alphanumeric pad, and probably the most distinctive feature it had sort of a metal frame/protector that you could take off to access battery. It wasn't completely covering it. Maybe it was a Siemens?

Thanks​

Wii Guitar on Batocera

Im trying to get my Les Paul wiimote controlled guitar working on Batocera to work woth YARG.​ I hooked up mine through Bluetooth but YARG recognises the inputs as wiimote buttons and strum bar/whammy bar inputs are not recognised at all.

I wonder if I'll have to get the retrocultmods adapter but ideally I would rather keep it wireless.

Is it going to bear better results if I were to connect the guitar through a ​Mayflash Dolphin Bar?

Venues not working

I have just installed YARG on my Batocera v43 build and I ran into an issue with the backgrounds/venues not displaying. Along the stable build, I downloaded a few venues/background animation type of things from the launcher as well. I did turn off the song by song background setting but when I click open background venues folder nothing happens. When I play a song, I just have sort of gradient coloured background. I play custom songs, and each has an album cover in a PNG format in their respective folder. I was hoping to use that visual effect from the official launcher that displays album cover in the middle and sort of circular equaliser around it, before I go and source music videos for my songs. I have three different backgrounds downloaded from the launcher. Any help would be very appreciated.
