Strangest problem with my KeyWiz

Now I just have to figure out if the input latency is coming from the Keywiz or from MAME itself. You don't notice it in most games, but you sure do in fighters.

If there is one thing the KeyWiz is, it's flexible (not literally :) )

If you are using the custom set, you can disable the on-the-fly switching by hooking up the ground (COM) of the P1LEFT microswitch to the NC contact of your Shazaaam! microswitch.  That way, when Shazaaam! is pressed, no ground signal can make it to left and therefore, no switching :).  This also works if you are using the default set, just use the P1RIGHT instead of left.

If anyone needs further clarification on this, feel free to PM or email me.

Also, since the main design philosophy of the KeyWiz is based pretty strictly on performance, any latency would almost certainly be due to software issues.  Latency issues can be caused by a number of factors including poor input handling, OS issues or insufficient processor speed for the particular program in question.  All of which are independant from the KeyWiz.  Just an FYI :)

Just wanted to make note  that Randy has replied to me privately, and was very helpful. He offered me some diagnostic tips, and even made a very generous offer in the case that the board is in fact defective. Thanks Randy, and I'll get back to you soon. I continue to recommend your product to everyone I speak with :)
