Title: request: add support for Trackballs that work in XBMC4BOX
Post by: sharpfork on October 09, 2011, 04:19:50 PM

Hello-

I have been desperately trying to find a functional trackball for my cabinet but am running into issues.  I have two different trackballs working perfectly fine in XBMC4XBOX but neither work in FB.  I'm including the USB info with hopes support can be added.
This first one is a pretty nice solution for around $20 for the trackball + PS2-> USB adaptor

This second one is a trackball i've had in a cabinet since I had a Motorola StarMax 3000 Mac clone powering it (looong time ago).  I don't many other folks will use this kind of setup but I'd love to not have to tear my CP apart to us FB on xBox1.

Please let me know if I can provide any additional info or if there is anything else I can do to help.

Thanks in advance
