Not working XBSX2 or Retroarch

[Piloto40]

Hello, I'm using the app in dev mode, it connects normally but when I open an emulator like Retroarch or XBSX2 the controller stops responding, it only starts responding again when I open the Oberon app.
Sorry for my English.

Yeah I also experienced the controller not working with RetroArch. I think it's one of the software that blocks synthetic inputs interestingly. I'm not sure about XBSX2 though I will try to work will the developer to get it working.

As for the XBSX2, it works in the menus, but as soon as you open a game it stops working.

In devmode, I can't change it to "APP", maybe that's the reason I can't use it with retroarch

@ErivandoBR It should be set to an app by default, it's not a game. I think the reason it can't be used with some emulators is because they do some trickery to get around memory limits (or something similar) which causes the Xbox to close any background apps, including Oberon.

I've been searching around for solutions and it seems like a youtuber has found a workaround that even I didn't know about. If you follow the instructions in this video he shows you how to get it working in XBSX2. Big thanks to him for figuring it out.
