This is a low level interface that allows applications to talk to devices like joysticks, keyboards, gamepads, etc. Few applications use it to use joysticks, instead they use higher level libraries like DirectInput or XInput, which then talk to this lower level layer. Wine currently supports DirectInput, so joysticks and gamepads work in many games. Unfortunately XInput is missing. Aric’s plan is to provide the low level hid.dll and (re-)implement dinput and xinput on top of it. This puts all operating system abstraction code (Linux, OSX, Android specific joystick handling) into hid.dll and allows applications that talk directly to hid.dll to work. Those applications are rare, but they exist. </p><p> -Aric’s presentation video will be uploaded soon... +You can see Aric’s <a href="https://youtu.be/VcW_et0GC5Q">full presentation here</a>! </p><p> Aric also sent a mail explaining the current status to <a href="https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2016-November/115142.html">wine-devel</a>: </p><quote><p>
