Thanks
ergh... XBox One to PC streaming is pretty laggy as it is. How does it go with the additional step?
BETTER to Use LAN connection For your Console, PC and Shield
using 5 GHz wireless connection is the acceptable minimal requirement for best performance.
using 2.4 GHz wireless connection is BAD (at least for ME)
Why do you use the composite on the ps3 instead of the hdmi?
Anyone ever get this to work? I am trying to do it, but cannot figure out how to get the cronusmax to work... I got the capture card working... also consoleXstream doesn't seem to work on windows 10.

with your ps3 how much control do you have because i am wanting to have my x1 control my ps3. I am hoping there is a way to have a remote play function set up on my phone so you could control the ps3 and stream content over the web like a PSP.
Here's my first custom ROM for the A7.
It has support for Microsoft's XBox 360 controllers and some bundled emulators. Wired controllers just plug in to the USB port. Wireless controllers need the USB Receiver for PCs. This makes a great combo for a portable gaming station with the HDMI output.
XBox 360 Controller:
The controller can be used for some basic navigation around Android OS. The buttons need to be configured in each emulator.
They are mapped to key presses as follows:
A = A
B = B
X = X
Y = Y
Left Bumper = L
Right Bumper = R
Left Trigger = T
Right Trigger = Z
Left Stick Click = 0
Right Stick Click = 1
DPad = Left/Right/Up/Down (in landscape mode. it will be sideways in portait mode)
Start = ENTER
Back = ESCAPE
Xbox Guide = HOME
Apps:
The emulators included are free/lite ones from the market place. If you like them or to save state, purchase the full versions. The script that installs these is supposed to only do it once, so they should be easy to uninstall if you don't want them.
ConnectBot and Dolphin Mini Browser are also installed on the first boot of this ROM.
ADB:
The ROM automatically sets up ADB to listen over tcp on port 2323. This will make your device a little less secure but makes development and debug much faster for me. To disable this open a command prompt and type:
su
setprop services.adb.tcp.port -1
stop adbd
start adbd
You will have to do that every reboot to disable adb over tcp.
Base:
This is built off Dexter's 1.1 Mod, so all his changes should be in here too. GMail and Market seem to work fine.
To Install:
Copy update.zip to an sdcard and put it in the tablet. Power down the tablet. Enter recovery mode. Wipe the Cache. Wipe user data. Install update.zip from the sdcard.
Known Oddities:
The LED ring on the wireless remotes will flash the entire time, but it functions fine.
The LED ring on a wired controller will advance by 1 section each time the device sleeps/wakes up.
The controller sends all its keys on first connection.
Only 1 controller input is supported for now. The wireless receiver supports upto 4 so hopefully I can get some multiplayer going soon!
Link:
I've uploaded the update.zip file to Mediafire.com since I don't have the webspace anywhere to host a file this size (90mb). The file reference is "2hm8i9jt32btmkw"
This forum will not allow me to post a link direct link since I'm a new user, so if another user could post it ( "mediafire.com" then "/?" then "2hm8i9jt32btmkw" ), I would greatly appreciate it.
Try it out and give me some feedback

Just wondering ... this is not a multi-touch screen ... can you control the D-Pad and press like A Button without lifting the D-Pad ?

Yeah, it lets you hit multiple buttons at once.
In Mario 3 I could hold the run button and use dpad, then jump/fly without trouble.
In Mario 1 I had trouble changing directions in the air while jumping but I think that is part of the game.
In the PSX emulator I could hold Circle & DPad to run around.
The only strange thing I can think of is that the Left Trigger and Right Trigger are converted from Analog to Digital (they measure 0-255 but only report on/off). Because of how I did that, games probably wont recognize holding down those buttons, only a momentary press.

MOD Edit: You got it
Generic Controllers
I've been able to map keys on a small USB keyboard to control my emulators. I installed your mod, and I cannot get it to work with a USB Logitech controller.
I don't have a wired 360 controller, but I do have wireless. How would I get that to work? Do I just have to have the USB 360 Reciever for Windows? Thanks in advance.
Thank You - SlingPlayer App question
Thank you for your work on this rom.
I was able to get things working well but i'm having a small issue with my slingplayer app not being able to open. It installs fine but when I click to open it the screen goes black for a second and then returns to the home screen. It was working using Dexter's 1.1 rom before but I occasionally had to open it 2-3 times before it worked.
Any idea what the problem could be?
One other question - Do you notice the screen is pixilated on the external display when you hook up your a7 via hdmi?
X
XBOX 360 PC Controller
Apparently I found the LAST wired 360 controller in town! Everywhere I went this week only had the wireless controllers. That would be fine if I had the USB receiver for it.
Anyway, I've been using the controller with my emulators and it works like a champ! It is very touchy on diagonal directions in games like Contra for NES. In the levels where you run side to side, and face up to the walls firing straight and not diagonal is a pain.
Has anyone had any success with PSX emulators? I got one off the Marketplace and I haven't gotten it to work yet. I've only tried one Bios so far, but I'll keep at it.
I've also noticed in this ROM my internal memory doesn't display correctly anymore. It worked in Dexter's 1.1 Mod.
I ordered my controllers off ebay. 2 for $50. I've got the PSX emulator to play. BUT its very choppy, and the sounds awful. I tryed Diablo and only got to the first mob and my cha glitched out. That being said All the other emulator work 100%!!!
Thanks so much creators of awesome!!
I tried installing your mod - did a wipe and cache wipe before install - plugged in my madcatz xbox360 wired controller, and it wont work, is there something in settings I have to change? The light flashes, but it wont control anything.
Thanks so much for this Mod. It really opens up the gaming on the a7. Will there be a update from Dexters new update?
update
Great work.
Update with new Dexter mod?
To use a wireless remote, you do need a Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows.

I edited the driver to only support Microsoft brand remotes to simplify working on it. I'll add back in the other stuff now since I have a better idea of how it works.

Hey guys wanted to share this here. I have created a client/server app for android + pc. I designed it specifically for Nvidia Shield Portable, but it should work with any android device (OS4.4 KitKat) that has a true android gamepad attached.
A-PC GamePad <- check out my website for more details.
So what is it?
This is a solution to use your Nvidia Shield as a PC GamePad. There is an android app (client) that takes over the gamepad input and sends it over wifi to a PC app (server). The server app feeds a vJoy gamepad with the input from the Shield gamepad.
The android app runs in the background, so you can have any app run in the foreground. You can run Nvidia's GameStream or Splashtop Streamer and still control your PC. This app overrides the controls from the gamepad. This means you can stream your games even if your PC is not gamestream ready! You can still navigate the Shield with the touchscreen, back and home buttons.
Supports multiple controllers! I have only tested with two gamepads (Shield Portable, and Shield Controller), but it should work with up to 16 gamepads. If anyone has success with more controllers, please let me know.
Note that the vJoy app emulates a DirectInput controller, not an Xinput controller. However, you can run x360ce for Xinput games. I have found that this interferes with Xinput controllers attached to the PC at the same time. For now, this is going to be how it works.
I really want to hear some feedback so please let me know what you think.
This is what I've been looking for, thanks!
I'll check it out next week and give you feedback.
Hi,
Thanks for sharing your app with us, i have a question, have you tried using steam with you app like 360 controller ? i will try to do that one i get home
Thanks again
The working/non working sideloaded apps, accessories & modules thread for Root & Non-Rooted AFTV2
I'm starting this thread so that some of the new or regular users have somewhere to compare accessories/sideloaded apps & experiences with each other, please help each other & add any good compatible apps or xposed modules so we have a place to find new stuff for our Amazon Fire Tv 2. There will also be a working & non working section. Add any in the comments with some information (version numbers too if needed), & if there are problems with them? I will add them to the main front page (post1).
We can only operate this if we all work together so feel free to add any working or non working in the comments below.
PLEASE NOTE
I don't want any downloads to any wares (this is standard XDA rules) or links to apps In any form even google play store or amazon links too, the only exception to this is if you have a link for a guide on Xda forums to get the sideloaded app or accessories to work (not the download to any APK's!!!!).
I have noticed that you need to turn off usb debugging in the developer section otherwise the usb port will not function correctly on the AFTV2!!!!
Some apps also may need Root access, Google Apps (Gapps), Google Framework, Xposed & or Xposed modules to make them work & sometimes will require a reboot of the system, I will as & when add this information next to the apps when possible.

My xbox360 wired works just fine, FYI. I play naught 2 regularly using it. Only issue I've noticed is that the top bumpers do not register (white light doesn't blink when pressed), there is no menu button, and my mouse cursor disappears when the controller is plugged in...

plugged into the hub, I'll go put it in direct and see if it registers... I'll just edit this post afterwards
Sorry, life happens..
Works fine direct connect, no difference I could detect.
I was wrong about one thing though, the top bumpers light the white led, the bottom triggers do not. However, the d pad and sticks don't light the led, but both work for navigation, so maybe they work in a game that uses them.
I did notice depressing the sticks (either) does the same as the green button (ok/enter), had not noticed that before.

Guide to get the PS4 Controller working on the AFTV2
Ok so i saw this & copied the work around if you want to go to the original thread the link will be at the bottom of this page.
Here is what you have to do.
I had to pull out my windows install to run the SixAxisPairTool to get the PS4 controller to pair. There is a Mac version but no matter what I tried it kept saying there were no controllers on the USB bus.
In the ADB shell you need to pull the Bluetooth MAC address from your FireTV Stick using this command:
$ settings get secure bluetooth_address
Take that value and plug it in to the tool and then you will be paired.
To get the controller to work with the PS4 again is as simple as plugging it in via USB to the PS4.
It's not quick to swap back and forth as you need to rerun the pair tool to get the controller to work with the fire tv again.
The original thread is here (look at post 4 for the guide)-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/unable-to-pair-ps4-controller-to-firetv-t3250644
Make sure you give him thanks on his thread if this works for you.
Added more apps & accessories to the list 7/1/16
If anyone has anymore please feel free to add them to our list
ePSXe works perfectly. The preferences page doesn't crash in the new version, so remapping the game controller is no problem without a mouse.
These 360 Controller knockoffs work perfectly with Fire TV and they're fairly priced at US 13.99 with free shipping! My pink one just arrived and I tested it with a round of Modern Combat 5

Hi, Would appreciate it if someone could post the current BT Sport App APK (v 2.11.0) for download via Windows PC. I can then sideload onto Fire stick using Adbfire. Thanks in advance
Fyi with @rbox twrp recovery and pre rooted img on aftv2, Google Chrome works (worked out of the box for me) with a mouse app such as Wukong as well as Play Store works if done correctly including downloading apps..
Also, Xposed works great on aftv2 as well now.. I feel your list needs to be udpated soon haha
Hey guys, just got my fire tv, 2nd Gen.
Finished installing it, and I had two games in the appstore: sonic 4 ep2, and minecraft pocket edition. Bought these years ago for the kids.
Anyway, I had an old generic ps3 controller that I connected to the fire tv, and I can confirm that it's working perfectly.
I looked it up on amazon, and it's this model, if anyone has it, give it a try:

Also, one side loaded game that did not work for me was Chaos Rings, the original one.

This will only work if you have a NVidia compatible card and the NVidia GeForce Exp App. on PC This guide will also show you how to make the quality of the games excellent.
First get newest copy of PCSXR
Download the Natural Vision Shader plugin
Download Pete's OpenGL2 PSX GPU Version 2.9
Download the newest Pokopom XInput Pad Plugin
Unzip PCSXR to a place on your PC where u intend to keep it to use , do not use it from the desktop just find a place my docs etc..
Unzip the Natural Shader zip and place the Natural folder into the directory of PCSXR
Unzip the OpenGL2 PSX GPU Version 2.9 and place the contents into the plugins folder in PCSXR
Open PCSXR and go to configuration, then to plugins&bios
Under graphics use the drop down to select Petes OpenGl2 driver 2.9,
Under that select configure heres where you will tweak the settings to have the best effects
Click the drop down under Full screen Filters and select ARB program(gpuPeteOGL2.vp/fp) Then
click the browse button directly to the right of that drop down and browse to where you placed the Natural folder and select it.
Click ok to save these options , back at the plugins and bios screen under graphics you will see
first controller use the drop down to select Pokopom Xinput Pad Plugin click ok to save options for
now.
Open the NVidia GeForce exp and go to Preference then on the left side select SHIELD make sure
there is a check mark in the box where it says Allow this PC to stream to SHIELD devices then on the
right click the + sign and browse to the folder where u have PCSXR and select the PCSX exe and add it
to your list of shield games.
On fire tv install the moonlight apk I got this from the amazon app store on my kindle then transferred to the fire tv
Open the moonlight app on the fire tv it will scan and should find your PC select your PC and you will
see a list of games, select PCSX and run it, at this point it should pop up the NVidia exp window on
your PC this is where we will configure the controller. Get Your Bluetooth controller amazon or
otherwise and hop over to Your PC making sure it is in range with your amazon Fire tv .
On PCSXR select configuration plugins and bios, then under First controller select configure and
configure Your controller as you would if it was connected yes this part has to be done on the PC but
once its configured its saved, after that load Your game and in a few seconds it should be on Your tv
screen in full screen nice quality and have a wireless controller to use with it.
EDIT-- My son informs me that the sound on some of his games is not that great, this plugin spupeopsdsound109 from Petes plugin site corrects that, just place it into the plugins folder of Psxcr and choose it from the plugins and bios config
I have my fire tv hard wired to my net but I tested doing this with my wireless and a Bluetooth
controller and I had no controller or game lag whatsoever
This method also works with PcSX2 for ps2 games to stream to amazon ftv but all you have to do is
add the PCSX2 exe to the NVidia shield games list and configure controller all necessary plugins are
already set up in the newest version
screenshots at bottom are of the plugins and bios section and my settings for op quality i would provide links to the programs used here but google can also do that
