Hello guys,
I was working on it yesterday with a bit of disappointment. Did anyone make this work yet?
I tried to do this with FreePIE, vJoy and X360CE.
I used X360CE to emulate an Xbox 360 Controller, since streaming should work with these. I hoped to be able to control streaming this way, but I don't know where to put the generated xinput1_3.dll. I was able to open the folder where the XboxApp.exe is, but I don't have write access there. Replacing xinput1_3.dll in system32 didn't help either. Somehow after some hours my FreePIE script stopped working, but that's an issue that I'll need to workaround later.
What I did so far:
- Writing a FreePIE script, that translates keyboard input to vJoy (controls for Minecraft, but can be easily changed)
- Configuring X360CE to understand vJoy (the easiest task)
If there is any interest in this, I can post Links and my script later.
Any ideas where I did go wrong? Anybody found a hint, where the Xbox App gets the inputs from? Does it even use Xinput or will we need to dig somewhere else?
Best regards

Hey have you made any progress on this?! I've been trying to do the exact same thing. I want to use my keyboard and mouse to control the xbox one while streaming.
Ever make any progress on this? I tried something similar myself but couldn't get it to recognize any virtual controller. Anyone have any ideas?

I have a HTPC (without a mouse or kb) plugged into my TV, and while I have a remote (IMON 2.4G DT) the mouse control isn't too great. What I would like to do is use my Wizard as an input device, primarily for the mouse but probably also for keyboard
I thought Total Input sounded promising, but I have two issues with that:
1. 'Server is unreachable' - which presumably is just a matter of configuration of the network, and hopefully I should be able to sort that, and
2. (and this is the bit I really need help with) TI requires the NET Framework 1.1, a consequence of which is the PC can no longer boot straight into the default desktop, but now stops at the 'Select a user' screen.... where you click WITH A MOUSE which user you want to log on as
So, my question is, does anyone have any novel solutions or can suggest a piece of software that will alow me to do what I want?
I really don't want another mouse and keyboard cluttering up the living room, and to be able to use the Wizard as the input device would be really handy.
You can fix that login issue by Clicking 'Start' > 'Run'
Then type "Control userpasswords2" (without quots)
Then set the default user
Great stuff ! Thanks for that hiazle, I'll give it a try
Is there anyone out there who has got this app working and how did you find it? Does it work well?

Have you got a link to it? I've not seen it before, and it sound like it might be handy...

Hi!
I have been writing android programs for a while now, and I have decided to make a remote controller to control fooobar2000. I used to have one working which just ran command line arguments, but most of these are no longer supported (after foobar2000 version 0.8 something). I have checked out the foo_upnp plugin, which seems to work nice with some android apps (e.g. Andromote). The problem is, I cant seem to find any information on how to actually implement the remote controlling in the source code.
Does anyone know where to start looking?
I have already tried Google without satisfying results.
Thanks in advice!

Hello boys,
We have Root thanks to $aur0n and their lovely UrukDroid. I'm running 0.1 and I have been fooling around with getting a Gamepad to work via USB host.
I have a PowerA 3in1, the full keyboard works, no mods no anything, but the gamepad does not. ~~I repeat only the keyboard works.~~
however!~ With Root and a bit of dabbling I found Event5 in /dev/input/
Look for your self, go to terminal with a usb gamepad and type in terminal
'cat /dev/input/event5'
It might be different for you, but mine shows a direct correlation between key presses and text.
so that means we can write a script to capture the gamepad presses and convert them into keypresses... yes?
My Scripting languages suck at best. But I am sure we can get something working seeing how we have root.
Good Luck =)
Note: I am dumb, and I typed ush for usb...
I too had a rough idea about this, didn't act on it though.
My idea involved the JoyDev module though for analog support but I haven't tried anything yet and probably won't. Investigate yourself and let us know!^^
Hello everyone, while this is my first post I am definitely not new to XDA developers. Lately I have been following UrukDroid development and have been very impressed by what $auron has managed to pump out. This past weekend I was in a car for quite a long time with my Archos 101 tablet and realized "Hey how cool would it be if I could use my Logitech gamepad with my tablet for emulators!" Of course I knew this couldn't be an original idea and I began doing a few days of searching the forums here and more generally Google searching. After a bit of research I finally realized that the only thing really holding back UrukDroid from using my gamepad was the lack of the joydev.ko module. Being a long time linux nut I then set out to cross compile joydev.ko for use on my tablet. While I cannot guarantee this will work for everyone I figured I would post it here and see what comes of it. Remember this is a work in progress and this is also my first post of this project.
First: This requires that UrukDroid be installed (I am testing this against UrukDroid 0.7)
1. Download joydev.ko.tar (Attached to this thread)
2. Untar "joydev.ko.tar"
3. Place joydev.ko into the "/lib/modules/" directory on your tablet
4. insmod joydev.ko to load the module
5. Plug in your gamepad (I am using a Logitech F310)
6. lsusb should now show your gamepad is connected
After this point I have hit a bit of a brick wall, so if anyone knows more than I and can speak up I am all ears.
As far as I understand it I should be able to now open SNESoid and choose "User Input" mode and then map hardware buttons for use with the gamepad, just like one would with a bluetooth gamepad. I am going to continue to dive deeper but I figured if somebody knew the answer already I shouldn't keep this to myself and hold up progress.
Is this for USB gamepads or something?
I've been using my Wiimote over bluetooth for emus and it works flawlessly.
Yes it is for usb gamepads. I figured since my A101 has a full sized USB port I could get it to use my xbox controllers or my Logitech controller. Like you I have used the wii controller before, but I don't like the feel of the controller and it's a little clunky carrying around the remote and the classic controller.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Datel-Wireless-Retro-Controller-Wii/dp/B002BA5FAC
this datel Wii controller works without a Wii remote, it works well with the WiiMote app.
Hey pal, great idea. Please keep it up! I would love to use my HAMA Black Force Pad to play some games!
Don't get me wrong, I think this is awesome. I have the Archos 32 so it's microUSB though I understand that it has host controller support so I should be able to use this as well with a converter cable.
If it helps, the way the Wii one works is by making a simulated keyboard as an input method. In the same way you can change from the stock keyboard to the Gingerbread one, you just select WiiControllerIME. Here's a URL from the developer of that app...maybe you can get in touch with him:

Ive pushed it with a root explorer to lib/modules and typed in my terminal emulator: insmod /lib/modules/joydev.ko but nothing happens. I tried it with NESoid, selected input methods but it doesnt work
Any help? Tried it with a Black Force Hama Gamepad

Got already the latest. Probably a problem because of my gamepad... Thanks anyway

I would swear I saw similar post (about gamepad's and Uruk) somewhere in developers sub forum - I can't find it now...
Anyway I've added joydev module to Uruk (1.0 release) - what else is required to make it work (that "missing" post had some more useful information in this subject)... I don't have any ps3 pad to test - so I can prepare some basis for other to make it fully functional.

Thanks! Hopefully your new release will improve the graphic performance, Fruit ninja is lagging very bad. That's why I uninstalled Uruk 0.7 (tried it on internal and SD storage, no improvement).

You mean with the standard ps3keyboard i think it is even when plugged in blutooth only?
Edit:didn't work for me with ps3 controller
@$Sauron:
I guess that what's missing is just an interface between the pad keys himself and the key that are captured by emulators ...
I have tried and i can see my pad (logitech rumblepad) in lsusb but no way to input the keys in Settings of, for example, n64oid ... ti still waiting for a key to be pressed even hitting each pad button.
I have tried the N64oid input setting with a usb keyboard so i guess only an interface pad device --> virtual keyboard is needed ...
I will try the gamepadime tools with this new joydev module but already tried in the past without it and not working ...
So, tested with GamepadIME ... now instead of having /dev/js1 (nodevice) i have /dev/js1 (permission denied).
I guess thing is missing but cannot use my gamepad to map buttons on emulator

Do you kow how I can get joydev.ko for flytouch3 compiled? I do not find the android source code of Tim6 or the official firmware.
I think the flytouch3 has an arm 11 cpu. Is it possible to get the driver compiled for that CPU, and will that work on my flytouch? Or does it need to be compiled especially for my used kernel?
thanks for any help!
When I try to do the insmod step, my A101 reboots. And then joydev.ko is no longer present in the /lib/modules folder. Any ideas?
Running UrukDroid 1.6.

4. modprobe worked. How can I get this to load with the boot process? How is this different than joydev.ko? In anycase this is only good if issue 2 is resolved.
Thanks

joydev is joystick device, probably module from other compilation won't work. I'll prepare uruk on.
To make something running on start you can do something like this (ssh/adb)
Code:
su
touch /etc/init.d/S98rc.local
chmod u+x /etc/init.d/S98rc.local
Then edit this file and add
#!/bin/sh
modprobe -a modules_names

You can add many modules to be loaded like this (named them, separate with space).
edit: apply this fix http://sauron.pourix.com/UrukDroid/UrukDroid-1.6/UrukDroid-1.6-update-fix.tbz2
This mainly corrects iptables support, but I've also added joydev module and /etc/rc.local file where you can load desired modules on boot.
When you load joydev and xpad you should probably make a device in /dev/ (with mknod) since we have not udev that will do it automatically. So you need to find on net what numbers to use.
Hey guys,
I thought I'd chime in on using the OUYA controller under Windows as I finally have it working 100%.
I recommend using vJoy in conjunction with Universal Joystick Remapper. vJoy installs a virtual controller driver whereas Universal Joystick Remapper lets you forward (and tweak) the input from the OUYA controller to the virtual one. By doing this, you can have a fully working D-pad, both thumb sticks working and you can get rid of the annoying z-axis value being created by the left trigger.
1. Download and install vJoy. As I'm a new user, I'm not allowed to post external links, so I'm afraid you'll have to use Google.
2. Open 'Configure vJoy' from the start menu and copy the settings found in the first picture attached to this post: 1.png.
3. Download and install Universal Joystick Remapper. Again, sorry but you'll have to use Google.
4. Download the attached zip file ujr.zip, which contains the configuration file (ini) for Universal Joystick Remapper and unzip it in the correct folder.
5. Open Universal Joystick Remapper and keep it running while playing your games.
At this point you're done! But in case you'd like to use your OUYA controller as a 360 controller, you can also run this configuration in conjunction with the Xbox 360 Controller Emulator x360ce.
1. Download and install as you would usually do. There's plenty of information out there if you're not familiar with it.
2. Open up x360ce.exe and configure it as in the 2nd picture I attached: 2.png.
3. Make sure to apply the settings from the picture to the vJoy device and not your actual OUYA controller. Also, as the OUYA controller shows up as controller 2 in x360ce, I loaded up the 'clear' preset for controller 2. This way we're only using the vJoy virtual controller in x360ce and not the actual OUYA one.
Hope this helps! This is my first guide, so forgive me if it's not completely clear and not according to the xda standards. :angel:

I see the purpose, I just don't see the point. The Ouya controller is of poor quality compared to comparable hardware, so why would one limit their gaming experience? Thanks none the less.

I know everyone on the internet says that the OUYA controller is the worst among the rest, but I just don't see it. I like it, it's sturdy enough. I never missed a button and the long handles make a better grip for me. A lot better than the old PS3, the new Amazon Fire TV, Moga pocket and MOga pro. Those are the ones i tried and I'm still happy with mine. May be I got a better one, or may be because I'm not a hardcore gamer and all I do is a couple of low quality games. My nephews also asked me what the crap I'm using, hahaha. But they have all kinds of gaming consoles.
Again, maybe it's just me because I actually don't own any of the other consoles and tried the controllers for a couple of times, 5-10 minutes each.
Still, the whole point is if you have that one lying around, it's better to put it to use instead of buying a new one.

Thanks, but I'd need some help I think.
I've made exactly everything you said but I can't get it working
Is it normal that when i launch ujr (with your ini file) it doesn't appear any window? It's icon sits on the appbar but it does nothing.
I also tried doing a configuration using x360ce but it does not seems to work.
Also, the D-pad does not work with x360ce...
