Dolphin Bar & Nvidia Shield, help

[MilPool]

Just purchased a dolphin bar, connected it to the nvidia shield via usb. However as i run the dolphin 5.0.199. and even after turning on the settings to constant monitoring and sync the wiimote to the dolphin bar, i still cant get the damn thing to work.

Can anyone give me a good guide on how to sync up the dolphin bar? i tried following the directions but I cannot get it to work.

I was able to get an earlier build of 4.0.7xx to run a few gamecube games without any issue, now attempting to run wii games.

Did you update the firmware of the dolphinbar? You can check this by monitoring the IR LEDs: If the left LED is burning, then the IR LEDs are also on. With the newest firmware, the dolphinbar turns off the LEDs if no wiimote is connected. So is the left LED always on?

The left IR is off when the wiimotes are off and on when the wiimotes are on.
The dolphin bar should be plug and play with the nivida correct?

I am having the same issue with Wii controllers and the Shield. When I'm not in Dolphin, I can hit buttons and it can go into other apps.. But while emulating a Wii game, nothing, no response. I initially used a 4.0 build to configure a Shield controller and then updated to the latest build 113 as of this posting. I tried other various builds as well with no success.
Notes:
Latest firmware
Shield 3.2
Official Wii controller (non plus)
Dolphin Bar mode 3.

Just tested, exactly the same issue. Although in NSMB it works in mode 4 just fine, but in Mode 3.. the buttons works on Dolphin UI, but in the game nothing happens.

I hope this is fixed... I was really hoping to test out a few Wii games. I tried the latest apk with no success today.

For best controlling result, Do the following:

1- install dolphin-master-5.0-148 (this is the last built that the wiimote refresh work in Android).

2- connect DolphinBar to Shield
3- Sync  Wiimote with DolphinBar in Mode 4
4- open any wii game
5- a USB permission requist Hit OK (wiimote will rumble But will not work)
6- exit the game.
7- enter the game again


know it will rumble again and this time it will work

hop it will work with you.


sorry weak English.

This worked for me.. not sure how I didn't eventually get to this via trial and error though! Thanks!
Now to rip my copies of Wii games to try out!
