Bootvideos don`t play since Pulstar / Les bootvideos ne jouent plus depuis Pulstar

OK, what if we try commenting out the feature that stops the boot video if a gamepad button is pressed?

I edited the file /etc/init.d/S06splash and on line 150 I added a # at the beginning of the line so it reads:
# options+=(--input-conf=/etc/mpv-input.conf --input-gamepad)

I saved the file then typed:

es stop
/etc/init.d/S06splash start

The video played and pressing a button didn't stop the video.

What can I say ? I set the write permissions with Putty, then edited the file with the "#" in front of the line with WinSCP and saved it... what happens:
I HAVE MY VIDEOS BACK
Thank you very much Pooadum!!! You are the best !!! ...and I got into programming a bit

P.S.: I hope the write permissions are automatically deactivated again after the restart....

Cool

Bear in mind that change will be overwritten when you update Recalbox.

Yes, it will be read-only again after a reboot

Yes perfect... THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
I think all the searching was worth it because there will certainly be some players who use these controllers and now you know what can go wrong when booting

P.S.: Maybe it would be cool to have a setting within the Recalbox that would allow you to enable or disable the ability to skip the video

@Sesto2k arg yes the feature is pretty cool but if your controller keep sending evens it won't work well

Cool you managed to fix that

[Sesto2k]

Yes of yourse

I can't tell you why the controllers behave like that either. I did some research on this but didn't find anything really useful. I'm thinking about switching to a different USB encoder anyway (2 player board). But for now I'm happy and it works...both on the RPI4 and on my new Mini PC. As I said, thank you very much for your great help !
