That is good news and I hope you get it soon.

KevSteele:
Well, that's two confirmations of problems with this encoder - as soon as I get another unit to verify things myself, I'll update my review.

I've been thinking about my initial testing, and why I didn't see the same things with my five button setup. I'm trying to figure out where I might have screwed up, and it may very well have been that I didn't do a full "5-button" test - I did a five button "smash" and the buttons rapidly in sequence, but now that I think about it I may not have held down all five buttons and verified that there were no ghost keys.

(I reviewed the "paper tape" after playing with the buttons to check for ghost inputs, but never verified that there wasn't ghosting while holding down 5 buttons at the same time.)

Whatever it was, it's becoming very obvious that I probably screwed up the testing of this encoder.   :-[ Hopefully I can fix that soon.

jjd - thanks for confirming this.  Interestingly, other than sluggishness, I didn't experience any of the pass-thru problems you mentioned.  Maybe different keyboards respond differently to it.  I was thinking about the KB32 last night and came up with this: (might help other users, or if you want to test it)

KB32 SPECULATION:  I don

Tiger-Heli:
jjd - Do you still have the KB32 - If so, could you (or someone else with one) post what the default input labels are for both sets of inputs.

For example - on the KB16, they are:
Joy UP
Joy Down
Joy Left
Joy Right
Button 1
Button 2
Button 3
Button 4
Button 5
Button 6
Button 7
Button 8
1P Start
2P Start
Coin 1
Escape

I assumed the KB32 used these and then repeated them with the understanding that the "other" set was for player 2, but two sets of Escape and 1P Start buttons seems odd?

Thanks again for your help with this!

jjd:
I'm actually on vacation, so I do't have access to the unit.  But I do remember that the labels on the P-2 side were slightly different after button 8.  There was a button 9, but I'm not certain of the rest. 

I'll post more when I get home in another week.
