Yes, this is what I aim to do.

Map only "Pause Game" to a Button-Combo on each Controller and let the Controller only control Kodi if the game is paused (and maybe minimized). All other actions on the controller should go "ingame" if a game is running.

So when first playing a NES game and then switching to an SNES game input isn't handled and the following error appears:

Code:

Debug Print: Button [ 0 ] on Xbox 360-compatible controller released
Debug Print: Feature [ b ] on game.controller.snes released
Debug Print: AddOnLog: NES (FCEUmm): Can't find <controller> tag for controller "game.controller.snes"
Debug Print: Feature [ a ] on game.controller.default released

I first played Super Mario Bros. in FCEUmm, then in Nestopia and then I wanted to play Super Mario World on SNES but it looks like FCEUmm (the first emulator used) still tries to handle input. The same problem exists if I do it the other way around see the log from trying to play something in FCEUmm after having played in Snes9x:

Code:

Debug Print: Button [ 7 ] on Xbox 360-compatible controller released
Debug Print: Feature [ start ] on game.controller.nes released
Debug Print: AddOnLog: SNES (Snes9x): Can't find <controller> tag for controller "game.controller.nes"
Debug Print: Feature [ start ] on game.controller.default released

Under the game menu, when adding a source, you can't remove it, actually you can't do anything with it except to add it to favourites. Not sure if it's the same for TV Shows and Movies, since I don't have any on this installation.

Autosaving would probably also be nice. Especially on exit.

However some times after switching the controller on again later, one of the trigger buttons gets stuck and it constantly tries to increase the volume. If I unplug and replug the receiver, things work again.

I wrote a netplay layer that tunneled Game API calls across a TCP/IP network, but it was too slow to be suitable for gameplay. My next attempt will probably use source from an existing project, like RetroArch or Dolphin.

Any chance of you implementing it into Kodi/XBMC for networked and online multi-player gaming with RetroPlayer over the internet?

https://github.com/OculusVR/RakNet
http://www.jenkinssoftware.com/features.html

"For those unfamiliar with RakNet, it is a comprehensive C++ networking engine for game programmers designed for ease of use and performance. The tech is tuned for integration into cross-platform, high-performance applications that operate across a wide variety of network types.

Key features include object replication, remote procedure calls, patching, secure connections, voice chat, lobby system for friends / community chats and leaderboard ranking, and real-time SQL logging. The technology has been licensed by thousands of indie developers, as well as companies like Unity, Havok, Mojang, Maxis and Sony Online Entertainment."

Would be very cool to have an online gaming community just for Kodi/XBMC with all interface integrated!
