8bitdo pro 2 wired is not supported?

[degradilla]

I bought 8bitdo pro 2 wired for my recalbox, i read on recalbox website that pro 2 is supported but I did not pay attention that there is a difference between the wired and wireless version, so i bought the wired version, maybe someone could connect this gamepad or maybe you know where i can find info how to do it?
sorry for my English(

Maybe it helps?!?

8BitDo Pro 2 Wired don't have the "Mode Switch" to select type of pad like the wireless pad.
The default mode ist S-Input for Nintendo Switch / XBox Mode.

Before you connect the controller, hold B-button and connect it.
At this time it switches to D-Input for Android-Mode.

After this Recalbox can recognize the controller named "8BitDo Pro 2".
But you have to do this every time you start Recalbox.

For Windows press X-button for X-Input, that it.

Sorry for necro.I have the exact same problem,but after updating controller firmware to 1.03,the system reckognizes 8bitdo pro 2 wired everytime and works in game from very start,no need to unpug and plugin holding B button everytime you start recalbox.But there is another problem and that is,after configuring buttons a dozen of times they are all randomly scrambled.Most of the times the system doestn see anything assigned to buttons A and B for instance.Ive tested this in Marvel Super Heroes.While my Logitech F310 works without problems,even after configuring buttons in the way that punching is on A and B,the system randomly sets them to L1 or R2 or something.Ive tried setting drivers to system but no avail.Has anyone have some suggestions?
