Second Method is via wired keyboard if i keep the right arrow pressed it tries to scroll across soon as I let the right button arrow go the selected menu scrolls back to "Pictures" if I'm quick enough to press enter on other menus I can enter it. I tried different themes and redownloading same issue.

all these symptoms happen both via emulationstation and Attractmode

General / Jamma for RPI

« on: August 22, 2016, 01:26:04 AM »

Came across this page today for anyone interested I'm not affiliated with the site owner or dev's

Project Kajitsu?
Project Kajitsu (Kajitsu is Japanese for Berry) is the brain child of Mike Wolak and Jasen Hicks based on the $35 Raspberry Pi B+ Model. The goal was to use the Raspberry Pi with a custom Pi Hat / Linux kernel and turn 2 ordinary PS3 or XBOX360 controllers into 2 Discrete JAMMA compatible controllers. We succeeded.
