Detect input even when the Dolphin window isn't selected - Alternity - 11-02-2016

So basically; I'm trying to find a way to get Dolphin get the input from emulated wiimotes when for example skype window is selected. If you are curious about the reason: I play alot of Rock Band 3 online with friends and we use Skype as a method to communicate.

I've noticed that when I use USB hardware (The Wii MPA (MIDI Pro Adapter)) that Dolphin does that on its own; but not with emulated wiimotes (In my case; emulated wiimote + emulated GH drumkit expansion).

Anyone knows of a way?

Edit: I guess I was blind; found the option. For those who may ask themselves the same question: On the emulated wiimote window (where you choose your inputs) there's an option for that. I don't know the english translation but if I go word by word from french the option is called "Background Input" or something like that.

Yeah, it's called Background Input in English.
