Action Replay 4in1 prob

Anyone have a problem scrolling through the action replay menus using the second controller port? Is it limited to first control port only? I was attempting to test some imported shooter games with a gun plugged into port 1 and a control pad in the second. Even with the gun unplugged the menus cycled through as if buttons were being pressed.

AR's controller code seems to have a few bugs in it. I think I've seen this one before but I'm not 100% sure what causes it.

Yes, with the gun plugged it generates a few probs it's best to plug it after booting the game.

I've run into this before as well. I just spent some time right now testing all my peripherals to see what kind of combinations work, etc. and here's my results:

-Doesn't work with any peripheral in port 2 unless port 1 has a standard pad plugged in

-Goes screwy if just mouse is connected in port 1

-Doesn't do anything if just keyboard is connected to port 1

-Goes back to normal if you plug a standard pad in port 1

iirc it also uses SMPC control mode, so it might just be that for whatever the reason the developers decided only to check OREG1 and OREG2 for standard pad data regardless of whether a standard pad was plugged in port 1 or not.
