Hi, is it possible for the iCode Uno/Duo Plus to recognize Commodore 64 controllers with two buttons?  These are not very common (they came out with the ill-fated Commodore 64GS game console) but there are quite a few games that make use of the extra button.  The first fire button connects pins 6 and 8 as usual.  The second fire button connects pin 9 (PotX) to pin 7 (+5V).  It would be great if this could be recognized by your adapter.  Thanks!

More information on these controllers is at: https://github.com/crystalct/5plusbuttonsJoystick

Sorry pin 9 and 5 are used for paddles and currently the firmware expects to only see paddles connected to those pins. there might be some way to programmatically accomplish this but it would require a firmware update.  I will ad this to possible enhancement list to consider in the future.
