Dolphinbar + Techken Wii motes not working in game - Taxton - 11-15-2021
Hi all,
I really hope some one out here can help me with getting my controllers to work within the games.
So pretty much everything seems to work as it should, however within the games itself the controllers are not responding to any buttons at all.
Setup:
Dolphin 5.0-15445
Windows 10
Hardware:
Mayflash Dolphin bar
2x Techken Wii controllers with motion plus (https://www.amazon.nl/gp/product/B08GLSFW1X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s02?ie=UTF8&th=1)
What i've done so far:
- Sync Wii controllers with Dolphinbar. This all works like it should. Pressing sync on both the Dolphinbar and the controllers. Controllers sync up as they should. one has the first light on, and the second the second light.
- Dolphin bar is in mode 4. Button under the sync button is continously on.
- Launching Dolphin as administrator
- Both controllers vibrate when i launch Dolphin. They will not vibrate if i hit refresh in the controller settings
- Setup both controllers as Real Wii Remote (Wii Remote 1, Wii Remote 2)
- enable continous scanning (tried with both on and off)
- Tried completely removing Dolphin including settings and reinstall
- Removed the Mayflash USB and reinstalled it
- The controllers work when i set them to mode 1 on the Dolphinbar which emulates a mouse
- Tried with several Wii games
- Hit alt + F5 to disabled and re-enable the controller
Any suggestion are much apperciated!

Update: After some futher investigation i found out that Cemu (another emulator for Wii U) does correctly recognize the bar and the controllers. So i really do believe there is something in Dolphin currently is going incorrectly. Hopefully some one can investigating this.

Dolphin's "emulate a BT adapter" mode (and by extension the Dolphin Bar, which uses this mode too) is only guaranteed to work with genuine Nintendo Wii Remotes. 3rd party models like the ones you have may or may not work (most don't). Bluetooth Passthrough mode should offer better compatibility, but it doesn't work with the Dolphin Bar...
