SDL VS OpenRGB

I don't know for sure, but could it be this?

The kit has been fun. My daughter loved helping me wire it up to a dummy box, and we decided its worth moving forward with a desktop cabinet build. I don't have a raspberry pi and can't find one, so we're using a 2012 mac mini. OpenEmu has been fun, but I'd like to be able to control the whole UI with the joystick, so we looked at EmulationStation-DE (retropie for desktop as its been explained to me). The control kit worked with OpenEmu but not EmulationStation, and the folks over in that sub said its not supported by SDL https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL

There is also SDL, which is a bit of a behemoth library, but gives you a lot of firepower if you want to get down to the nuts and bolts of building something from scratch with media. It provides a framework for working with graphics, sound, input hardware, etc., and is cross-platform. I haven't personally used SDL but it's a pretty well-utilized library. It's written in C so the same caveats apply as before, but works just fine with C++.

This has already been fixed in the latest SDL version, but it's likely that the game comes bundled with it's own version.

I got tired of writing C# bindings code by hand to interop with native C/C++ libraries, so I automated the process. Example for SDL: https://github.com/bottlenoselabs/SDL-cs. The repository is automated daily using Dependabot to run C2CS, generate the P/Invoke code, and push a Git commit with the code automatically when there is a change to https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL.

The source code for it can be found at https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL , this may be helpful if your looking for an example of how a 'platform layer' like this it can be implemented.

Simple Directmedia Layer: a library that offers low-level access to resources like audio, video graphics, joystick, keyboard, mouse. It is mainly used for the development of video games (Stepmania and Valve's games such as Counter Strike: Source, as some examples).

Now, we'll need to source the latest SDL source tarball. You can find it [here](https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL), but you can source the latest as of this writing with the command below. Run cd, and then run:

This is the amount of time gnome waits before trying to determine if an application is not responding. At 5 seconds it almost immediately triggers for league of legends (and some other applications) if those applications are still in the loading phase. We feel 30 seconds is a much more reasonable wait time. gnome mutter patched with x11 fractional scaling: https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/mutter/-/raw/ubuntu/master/debian/patches/ubuntu/x11-Add-support-for-fractional-scaling-using-Randr.patch gnome mutter wayland and x11 fractional scaling enabled by default: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/HiDPI#Fractional_scaling gnome shell patched with https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2358 to allow gnome-extension-manager to auto-update without needing gnome-extension-app installed. (They both function the same but gnome-extension-manager allows management of extensions without a browser). gamescope version regularly updated goverlay version regularly updated mangohud version regularly updated vkbasalt version regularly updated vm.max_map_count = 16777216 set by default for Star Citizen xwayland patched with fix for locked fps on some systems: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/home:hwsnemo:xwayland/xwayland/xwayland-vsync.diff?expand=1 supergfxctl and gnome extension + kde plasmoid enabled for laptops. Vendor agnostic and works with any combination of intel/amd/nvidia gpus.

I have a 30 series ASUS card, and Armory Crate didn't even detect my Strix 3080. Took me awhile to remove all of their bs software from my system (big thanks to Autoruns and BCUinstaller). Now I use OpenRGB to control everything.

Have you created an issue here?

OpenRGB doesn't see my Steelseries Apex 9 keyboard - is there any way to fix this? I saw adding Apex 9 recognition was requested here and a GitLab branch that adds the Apex 9 recognition was even linked but I don't know how to add this user-submitted update to OpenRGB. Any tips?

I'd much rather we had some convergence on a common standard so we could all just use something like OpenRGB, except knowing the monkey's paw that is modern tech we'd just end up in relevant XKCD territory.

OpenRGB is my current choice, open source is always a plus.

Before upgrading myself to a Keychron Q3 i used OpenRGB to control RGB on Logitech trash hardware : https://i.imgur.com/mkzcQDU.png
