Advance Mame

[vernonjvs]

Doesn't work with console Advance Mame on Raspberry Pi. I'm not sure why but key press/release event may be happening too quickly and is being missed by console Advance Mame (No X or SDL) entirely. Works fines with other Raspberry Pu console programs.

having the same issue, can see them in console, but not in any emulator. Trying to send and EXIT key combo

@vernonjvs Im in a rabbit hole thinking that there is a virtual keyboard layer via SDL

I could be very wrong here

@vernonjvs wait .. I just digested this more ..

You are able to push mock keystrokes to emulators? Are you using retropi/emulation station? This is what Im trying to do, I can not get an emulator to respond to a a virtual keypress, but if I go into a console, they do appear ... Do you mind posting any code snippets?

@vernonjvs I have it working in emulation station, I needed to add a short delay between the device call and the emit call
