RE: wiimote questions - aeridus - 12-23-2009

One more question: why doesn't the Wiimote auto-shutoff? I turned off Dolphin before I left for work and when I came back the fourth blue light on the Wiimote was still on. How am I supposed to turn it off?

Note: Holding down the power button on the Wiimote does turn it off but if I do it that way I can't seem to get it to automatically pair back up again with the PC. I've double-checked that the Wii downstairs isn't turning on at any time during this process.

Same here, but seeing that the wiimote can't pair automatically with the PC seems fair enough to me to not complaint about it.
Because the only thing Dolphin could do (imo) is to turn off the wiimote just as you can do by pressing the power off button, resulting in "pair loose" and who can be very annoying to pair the controller everytime you start a game/dolphin.

So my options are to leave the Wiimote on standby in between playing games, and turning it off entirely when not gaming for long periods of time, after which I would have to remove the Wiimote profile on the PC and re-pair it. Well, at least I can use it in Dolphin, that's the important thing. I just hoped it'd be slightly easier than that.

We are all wishing the same thing Smile

Hi guys, I still have not had the chance to try tomorrow but certainly something you should just turn the Wiimote of course with the pen bluethoot inserted then it detects and configures it, then configure it on dolphin and after play right? but I did not understand this problem of desynchronization.....Sad

Just buy an usb wiimote charger Smile then you don't have to worry about unpairing or leaving your wiimote on all the time draining battery life.

Isn't it bad for the battery if it's perpetually charging though? Tongue

It has to be a special wiimote batery that comes with the wiimote charger, it knows when its full, so your wiimote's just sitting in the charging dock all cool Tongue
