How to connect a second Wii remote plus with dolphin bar??

[herberckle]

Hello everybody,

I have a lot of trouble trying to connect a second wii remote plus using the dolphin bar.  The first one i got synced up and working after trying for a while but i can not figure out how to connect the second one.
I think they are both official wii remotes (though im not sure, they both have 2in1 motion thing at the bottom).

Im using mode 4 on the dolphin bar and i tried a bunch of different things to connect the second remote (unplugging and plugging the dolphin bar, removing the first remote, putting the second one in slot 2,3,4,1 in dolphin settings, changing the mode on the dolphin bar, holding 1 and 2 on the remote after pushing sync button on the dolphin bar, pushing the sync button on the remote, hodling the sync button,


My dolphin bar is updated to the newest firmware and it works with the first wiimote perfectly but i just cant get the second one to work no matter what i try. Sometimes the remotes lights flash for a second but after that nothing.
I feel like im doing shamanic rain dance rituals trying to get this to work, no real idea what im doing.
Maybe somebody who knows about these things can give me a detailed walkthrough what exactly i should do (which mode on the dolphin bar, hold sync, push sync, open settings etc etc), that would be REALLY nice!
I hope somebody can help me because local mutliplayer is just the best thing about wii.

Thank you in advance

A photo of your wii remotes would help us know if they're official if you're still not sure!

These are the ones i have.
They might not be official, now that im reading some of the comments on the store page, but one of them works fine and they are both the same model so i wonder if i should buy an offical wii remote in a store, would that maybe help?

3rd party wiimotes do not reliably work with Dolphin or the DolphinBar. Having even one connect is a miracle!

So can i buy a wiiu motion plus remote or does it have to be a wii remote plus for it to work reliably? im not sure if stores still have the old wii remotes.

Both will work the same
