Hello,
Last summer, with my kids we realised our project to build a bartop together. It was fun but as a result, I am mainly the one to play with it as my kids don't feel my nostalgia for retro gaming.
I decided to put some muscle in the bartop in the form of a ps3 cfw. It is not finished but it start to look so good. Only bad point, I had to unplug my recalbox to do that.
So here is the new project idea : How to combine both the ps3 and the recalbox within the same bartop and easily switch from the first to the second and back ?
The thing is I don't picture a good solution yet and would like to receive your suggestions for it.
The issue I face so far are :
- connect my joystick controler to both system. I use a xin mo controler card so the signal output is in usb.
- command the start of the ps3 : with recalbox, the powerswitch on the bartop was starting everything. With a ps3 you need to start the bartop and then the ps3. Can I do that from the recalbox ?
- Audio and video source selection : I need to be able to select wich system I want to use at some point. The same, can I do that from the recalbox ?
- Audio and video source connection as a result of the previous point
I hope some of you can give me suggestions, I am willing to share advancement and pictures along the road so it may help the community
Best regards, Trantkat.
