Description
Description
On a cheap Android TV box, retroarch does not accept any click on menu. I tried the box remote control, which is detected by retroarch nas an input, a wired usb keyboard, mouse and a usb gamepad. None can enter a menu item. Keyboard is simply dead for retroarch. Gamepad can navegate but not click on menu entries. Mouse can be used using rolling when mouse support is enabled editing retroarch.cfg. right click seems to open a help message while left click returns the selection to the first menu item from the first section. No input methods could enter a menu item.
Expected behavior
I should be able to select menu items
Actual behavior
Nothing happens when clicked.
Bisect Results
I got no good version
