xmenxmen:

If you have both the ipac and the x-arcade, why not do what others are doing and use the ipac to interface to the pc and the x-arcade to interface to the console.  Then between the interfaces and button/stick, use a printer switch to switch between them. 

That way you get the best of both world and a real proven working solution.

genesim:

I am trying to understand this.   Are you saying that both encoders should share the buttons??   So a switch will disconnect either encoder as seen fit?

I am trying to keep them seperate, but a different way can be welcome if there is really an advantage.

So far the XArcade is fine to the PC..but I do understand the Ipac is better..at least that what people say around here.

What he's describing is a 25P2T switch like this printer switch Not nearly as readily available as the serial boxes.

genesim:

But to what purpose?   As a go between the buttons?
