Then you can bind a Menu (of whichever type you prefer) to the left trackpad with all of those hotkeys. So any time you swap games, just touch the left trackpad and you're done~
Coming from the Steam Controller I can say with confidence that you should never underestimate the usefulness of that left trackpad!
I never had a Steam Controller and I'm still slightly overwhelmed with the various controller options
But I'm mostly playing Gamecube games on the go/in bed anyway and for these the controls usually are perfectly fine...

Dolphin supports this already. Take a look here:
https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t..._Settings)
You'd have to setup a specific controller profile first, then point to that in the INI file for that game.
Also keep in mind that Dolphin supports swapping controller profiles via hotkeys, so if you only have a couple of profiles, you can quickly switch between them.
To be fair, I haven't used either of these features, so I don't know exactly how they work, so if I'm off base, someone will kindly correct me

the emudeck seem to use the discover dolphin app as it says it is already installed, thats the one thats stuttering.

Ah thanks well looks a bit complicated to set up but I might try it when I have time, good to know that it exists nonetheless

Yeah, I suggested they remove this analytics ID as well when they removed the hard-coded MAC address (because I did not want every SteamDeck user to connect to Wiimmfi with the same MAC address. Was part of my PR (
https://github.com/dragoonDorise/EmuDeck/pull/54 ) which would have removed the "PermissionAsked" thing, too, but they decided to not merge that PR and instead just removed the ID and MAC.

That's exactly how I've set it up on my Steam Deck, and it's working great. Made three controller profiles in Dolphin (one for Classic Controller, one for sideways Wiimote, one for Wiimote + Nunchuk), and then added GameINI files for all of my games that each specify one controller config.
While this is not explicitely concerning the Steam Deck (it's more of a general Linux question) I assume most people like me are using the Flatpak version of Dolphin for the first time on Steam Deck (previously on Linux I always just compiled the latest git version myself).
Since the new Dolphin progress report has been posted recently and the beta was released for other platforms I was wondering how long it usually takes for the latest beta to be available from Flathub? Honestly my knowledge on how the flatpak format/flathub.org works is quite limited
Currently flathub.org still has 5.0-16101 on there, even though 5.0-16380 is the latest beta version.
I honestly don't know how long it takes. I wasn't paying attention the last time the flatpak was updated. ┐(´-｀)┌
