handling UNKNOWN type controllers

« Posted 2008-07-25 11:48:56 »

Hi there,

I'd like to use jinput for a different purpose than it's originally intended for: a microhone with controls (for recording and playback). The device is a "composite USB device" and jinput classifies the controller type as UNKNOWN.

Could somebody please advice on how to handle these type of devices?

Best regards,

Cem.

Hi

Did you just want the buttons on the device working?, or the sound too?. If the devices shows up in JInput, and has buttons in jinput, then I guess you'll just have to scan the device list and find the one with the right name. It's not ideal, but directx last time I looked didn't show mics as a device type.
