Auto-device not working

Hi,

I'm using the 8bitdo controllers on Windows (both server and client) with the latest version of virtualhere. I'm glad to see the support for them as been improved, those updates are very welcome and they work perfectly now even with 2 controllers connected at the same time, but the auto-device and/or auto-port feature for them to connect automatically is not working. For what i can see it resets constantly, so i'm guessing is related to the clunky behaviour of firmware switching in these controllers. Is there anything we can do make the auto connect feature to work with them? having to always have a mouse/keyb at hand to manually connect kinda kills the couch experience.

Thanks!

In the client right click on USB Servers->Advanced Settings->Auto-Use tab

Can you change the Auto-Use Retry Delay to e.g 5 seconds

That might give it time for the 8bitdo to reboot itself and load its firmware. The default is 2s which might not be enough
