@Cooltoy, Hey Doug, just following up on OTG and a comment posted on your previous video. I was able to get plunger working by using x360ce. Works with Pinball FX2 & 3, Future Pinball and Visual Pinball. It's kinda weird and long and involved. Had to map plunger to the the left and right analog sticks in order to make it work with all emulators. Also had to setup an 50% Anti-Dead zone on both in order to get full range on the plunger. Also still need to use xpadder (or joy2key) to map nudge in Future Pinball. Also Also, on some Future Pinball tables the plunger doesn't come back with enough force to launch the ball, wonder if it is the way some tables are made...... Anyway, it's a lot off weirdness to setup but it is possible and it works pretty well once set up. Let me know if you have any questions. But yeah, check out x360ce, maybe it could work for you, or anyone else reading this have problems getting OTG working with their PC.

Since they're already cables coming from the front left for USB & HDMI: I just used doublesided velcro tape and mounted my Fire HD8 tablet (same size and resolution as the one you have) to the back between the speakers so no cutting, drilling, taking the tablet apart etc etc. A lot easier than what you did - but I do have one cable coming from the side of the Tablet to give it constant power. I trust you had to adjust the table settings to move the DMD from the backglass to the tablet? And not sure how you're accessing it - Spacedesk maybe (that's what I'm using).
