Can't play emulator and record.py together

[shelpert]

Hi, I've been trying to configure a Switch Pro Controller to work with this project, so I'm using pygame_sdl2.controller instead of inputs. I got the Python UI working, but when I run record.py after running the emulator, the emulator can't detect the controller anymore. I'm wondering if you encountered this problem at all, or if it has to do with the change in packages.

Does the emulator work with the controller without running record.py? I imagine it is possible that the pygame_sdl2.controller takes over the controller exclusively which could be your issue but that is just speculation. If you figure it out please report back!

Yes, it works until I run record.py and then again after I quit it. I haven't found a solution yet but I'm working on it! What kind of OS did you originally run this on, Mac, Windows or Linux?

Sounds like it is taking over the input exclusively then. I ran it on Linux.
