Hi All,
I have done quite a bit searching and I have reached a dead end and I am hopeful someone has overcome my experience using dolphin with the Mayflash W010 sensor bar.
I currently have dolphin running on Ubuntu (20.04) and am trying to use a Mayflash W010 (mode 4) for wiimote connectivity however I am not getting any response from the wiimote after it has synced. I have tested dolphin/mayflash in Windows 10 and it detected and worked well but I want to integrate dolphin into my media centre which runs on Ubuntu. Within Ubuntu, when I set the mode to 1 or 2 on the sensor bar the wiimote works as a pointer in so I know Ubuntu is receiving input from the sensor bar. So the problem is either Ubuntu handling the Mayflash sensor bar in mode 4 or it is something to do with dolphin not playing nice with the device.
My configuration
Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 (Kernel 5.19.0-41-generic)
Dolphin emulator version: 5.0-19316 (Revision 8e6e6f3c4ac691f3db9c045945a61ecf271afdd7)
QT Version: 6.2.4
Controller configuration: See attached screenshot
I have also tried it on Ubuntu 20.04, dolphin 5.0 with the same outcome.
Trying alternative approaches I have had some success in my Ubuntu using my wiimotes if I connect them via bluetooth (usb bluetooth adapter) but to take this approach I need to use the official wii sensorbar connected to an actual Wii for the infrared detection which defeats the purpose. I realise I can get a usb Wii sensorbar and use this approach but I really like the feature of the Mayflash of all the syncing is done through it.
Has anyone had success in Ubuntu using the Mayflash W010 sensor bar working with Dolphin? Is there something additional you need to do within the OS/Dolphin configuration in order to make this setup work?
Is there a way to enable some verbose debug logging perhaps when you start dolphin which may help me diagnose the issue?
Thanks.
