Richard Hughes 5079f26f0e Never guess the version format from the version string
This leads to madness, as some formats are supersets of the detected types,
e.g. 'intel-me' is detected as 'quad' and 'bcd' is detected as 'pair'.

Where the version format is defined in a specification or hardcoded in the
source use a hardcoded enum value, otherwise use a quirk override.

Additionally, warn if the version does not match the defined version format

8Bitdo Support

Introduction

This plugin can flash the firmware on the 8Bitdo game pads.

Ebitdo support is supported directly by this project with the embedded libebitdo library and is possible thanks to the vendor open sourcing the flashing tool.

The 8Bitdo devices share legacy USB VID/PIDs with other projects and so we have to be a bit careful to not claim other devices as our own.

Firmware Format

The daemon will decompress the cabinet archive and extract a firmware blob in an unspecified binary file format. The binary file has a vendor-specific header that is used when flashing the image.

This plugin supports the following protocol ID:

  • com.8bitdo

GUID Generation

These devices use the standard USB DeviceInstanceId values, e.g.

  • USB\VID_2DC8&PID_AB11&REV_0001
  • USB\VID_2DC8&PID_AB11
  • USB\VID_2DC8
