• The SN30Pro+ in Xinput Mode: as you can see, it's showing the same behavior as when the controller is paired in Switch Mode, analog bug is pressent. So I went and did a test I probably should have done already: I paired the SN30Pro+ in Switch Mode to my Windows 10 PC, as you can see it's recognized as an official Pro Controller.

They are controller mode indicators: A. LED 1 blinking: D-input mode; B. LED 2 blinking: X-input mode (Xbox 360 mode) C. LED 3 blinking: macOS mode; D. LED Rotating: Switch mode or pairing mode; E. Solid LED: connection is successful.It also indicates the player mode when connected to Switch.

The switch on the back lets you toggle between the gamepad’s two operating modes: X stands for XInput (for most current games) and D stands for DirectInput (for all older and some newer games). When in XInput mode, all four gamepad LEDs will light up. Put the gamepad into the desired mode before starting a game.

Download the driver from www.speedlink.com to install the software. Always use the latest driver version.

Press the SPEEDLINK button in DirectInput mode to toggle between the two D-pad modes. If the upper two LEDs do not light up, coolie hat mode is active. This means that the D-pad and left-hand analog stick have swapped functions.

What Is Xinput Mode

You can only do this with special additional software. These programmes are available as freeware versions and easy to find on the Internet.

The signals of these two buttons are on the same axis, so they cancel each other out if pressed simultaneously. This offers the best form of control in many games. Alternatively, configure the button mapping in the game so you don’t need to press both trigger buttons at the same time.

As the gamepad supports both operating modes – DirectInput and XInput – you need to determine before launching the game which interface the game supports. You then need to set the gamepad to the correct mode as described in the manual prior to starting the game. You can determine which mode is compatible with a game by contacting the video game publisher, consulting the game instructions or testing both modes. Please note: full gamepad support is not offered by every game. However, these games can often be controlled using the gamepad by downloading and installing free additional software available on the Internet.

X Input Vs D Input

What Is Xinput Mode

Search in Windows® under 'Settings' for 'Set up USB gaming controllers', you should find the device listed there. Double-click the device name in the list of installed game controllers to access the input device’s settings. Test the device by pressing its buttons or moving its sticks. What you do on the device should be reflected on the test panel. You should also make sure that the right mode is chosen for the game you want to play. If the device still doesn't work, please contact our support team.

  I have a Logitech F710 wireless. It has a switch between 2 different modes: D (DInput) and X (XInput). Depending on the switch position it is seen as different devices (usb disconnects and reconnects when switching):

  lsusb with DInput:

  dmesg with DInput:

  lsusb with XInput:

  dmesg with XInput:

  Using DInput the joystick works perfectly in emulation station, mupen64 and scummvm but is not recognised by retroarch.

  Retroarch says when starting a game (snes, gba, gbc):

  Now I have no idea where retroarch gets this joystick identifier (udev, SDL?). It does not appear in dmesg or lsusb.
  I did a recursive find in /opt and /home/pi grepping files for the string ‘F710’ and there is no config file mentioning an F710 controller (in DInput it should be: Logitech Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2). The configured joysticks are:

  There are also these same 2 joysticks in the emulation station config file.

  I have tried copying the file LogitechLogitechCordlessRumblePad2.cfg to another file with the name of the joystick that appears in retroarch error message (without blank and special characters) and I also tried changing the name of the joystick inside the file. This was unsuccessful. Is there any documentation on how retroarch gets the joystick name (here: Logitech F710 Gamepad (DInput) (1133/49689)) and how I can map that name to a config file?

  With XInput it is worse:
  Not only do I get the very similar message:

  but also emulation station GUI cannot configure all buttons in XInput mode (in XInput, lower R and L buttons are actually axis and when pressing one of them it triggers the configuration of 3 consecutive buttons with (axis-,axis+,not defined). It can be circumvented by editing the config file manually if only I could find a nice description of the config file settings).

  I have read somewhere in this forum that DInput does not work, but according to http://linuxhacksandfixes.blogspot.de/2013/02/the-logitech-f710-gamepad.html it seems DInput should work fine on Linux. Also DInput works perfectly in emulation station, mupen64plus, scummvm (and with jstest /dev/input/js0) and also works on my PCs (also Linux but on Intel) so it could also work for retroarch (in the worst case by using xboxdrv to expose it as xinput).

  I must say also that I seem to remember a week ago using this controller succesfully in retroarch snes or gba/gbc. I cannot say for sure, but this is surprising since I have not changed/updated anything except editing these joystick configs (only after the problem arised) and configuring mupen64.

  Thank you.

  Try this:

  Thank you, thank you, thank you herbfargus!!! I’ve been looking and trying different steps for the last 3 days in order to get my F710 controller working properly. Even though I was able to get many games working through the controller by manually editing retroarch.cfg in the “all” folder, the hotkeys were definitely not behaving as advertised (hence making exiting without the keyboard next to impossible), changing to udev and reconfiguring the controller was definitely what I was after. I should now be able to ditch the keyboard and take this thing on the road…..
