Feature Request: Continuous Discovery

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Feature Request:

Ability to connect the Wiimote without having to interact with the TV.   For 
example, I have a HTPC.  Would love an option to always be in discovery mode 
when a Wiimote is disconnected.   This way I would only need to hit the Sync 
button from the Couch to connect.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.   Restart Computer
2.   Click Sync Button on Wiimote
3.   Have to click "Begin Discovery"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Be able to connect from the Sync button alone.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS - 10.8.3
Ver - 0.6

Please provide any additional information below.

Using a Datel Wii Retro Wireless...  It works great.

Hello, John!

I implemented this feature, can you test it? 
(http://wjoy.googlecode.com/issues/attachment?aid=200005000&name=WJoy.zip&token=
Rad09feU4tNVuiGvizLIn-aZYlo%3A1372761405037)

In this build you need pair with device only once. After what, if you press any 
button on wiimote (sometimes two-tree pressed), it connects to mac (and WJoy) 
without "discovery" function. If WJoy started, of course. But it's very 
experimental function, and may be it's not work. :)

Hi Alexandr 

I just pulled you out of my Spam filter.  I know I am 4 months late getting 
back to you (sorry).

The link below is invalid, and it doesn't look like you added it to V7 of the 
build.  If its not to much trouble for you, I have this white listed and am 
willing to test.

Sorry for link, i remove this file :( But today i will release new 0.7.1 with 
this ability and support of OS X 10.9. It's still experimental, but it works 
fine on my computers. :)

Please, try to test 0.7.1 with One-Button-Click-Connection option.

Thanks, it works great!.

Installed, Tested, and Beat Megaman X2.   Was using the Datel Retro Wireless 
(Wii).   It installed, detected the controller, and I was able to map the 
buttons using Controller Mate with no issue.   I am able to power down, and 
back up and reconnect also with no issue.   The setup also survives a reboot.

The only problem I hit was that the first time I ran wjoy 0.7.1 and connected 
the controller (no system password prompt).   My Mac Crashed.   The second 
time, I was prompted for a password.   I did have an older version installed.

section)?

Yes, it's kernel crash log. Thank you.

Looks like ControllerMate did crash kernel. But it may be too old wjoy.kext. 
Anyway, i hope what now all will work fine. :)
