outerra demo breaks Saitek profiler software
« on: July 15, 2016, 11:00:28 am »
The Saitek X65F stick has profiler software with keyboard shortcuts assignable to arbitrary buttons. I use the functionality to e.g. support mode switches or button indices  >= 32 that don't work in Falcon BMS by default.

Running Outerra up to the login screen causes the Saitek profiler software to emit endless keystrokes even despite no joystick keys pressed. The same issue exists for TeamSpeak but it has an alternative shortcut grabbing method.

I've used DirectInput repeatedly polling for pressed keys and it worked.

cameni, can you share the method you use to grab joystick and keyboard presses? This is interesting in itself.
