Hi all,
so googling around and whatnot i find people using PSX>USB adaptors that were intended for PC in order to connect their PS2 controllers to Android phones - this requires a USB OTG cable to convert full USB down to micro.
so i am trying to do similar with my t8-s plus v2 and coming up short, the converters just don't power on / work.
I expected full USB ports would just do the business but perhaps i missed something? so i went looking at the spec of current devices and note that OTG is a feature of USB, not a given and that it is listed as 'shared'.
can anyone explain what that means for me please? - am i going to be able to connect a PSX > USB converter to my device at all?
BTW, i bought a 'mayflash' device for connecting Sega mega drive controllers and that works fine but perhaps that doesn't have the same power requirements.
Eventually i would like an android box with PSX [or PS2], genesis and SNES controllers attached.
thank you.
