Leisure Suite Larry 7 - keyboard sending characters twice

Post by biomecanoid »

Hello,

Few days ago I downloaded RetroArch on my Libreelec running on a Dell Inspiron Zino 400 HD that I have upgraded to Athlon X3 420, 4Gb Ram, SSD for the OS and 6TB HDD for movies and games.

For the most part RetroArch is running fine but I have same issues:

In ScummVM keyboard is sending all characters twice. For example when running Leisure Suite Larry 7, I have to type “Break” in some point in the game and instead of that I get “Bbrreeaakk”. Keyboard works fine in Kodi plus I tried a 2nd keyboard and had the same behavior.

Anything I can do ?

Thank you
Chris

You could try to ask on the RetroArch forums. They are using their own unofficial port of ScummVM and we don't know much about it here.
I just tried with the official ScummVM on macOS and typing text is working properly in Leisure Suite Larry 7 for me. So it could be an issue with their port. Or it could be an issue that also exists in the official ScummVM but is specific to Linux. I have not seen any report for this though.
