Select Emulator from BigBox

[Former user]

There are certain situations (see below) where it would be useful to be able to switch which emulator is used for a system quickly/easily from BigBox. A possible feature might be to designate one emulator as default for a platform, but have others (that have been previously configured as normal) available via a sub menu?

Use Case: My go-to Dreamcast emulator is NullDC. It offers by far the best performance / resolution scaling in comparison to others that I've tried. I do use Demul for certain games that don't work with NullDC (E.G. Armada), but generally speaking performance in Demul can be shaky in comparison. I only have it configured to be used with one or two games. This works great when playing locally.

The problem comes when trying to use a Steam Link to play remotely. Steam Link doesn't appear to hook into NullDC correctly, so it doesn't send any Xinput commands to the emulator (the Steam Link stays in mouse emulation mode as if it's on the desktop). This is where quickly swapping emulators would be useful. It would allow NullDC to be used when playing locally, but Demul to be used when playing remotely.

I appreciate this is a NullDC / Steam Link issue, but it could certainly be a useful feature to enhance compatibility, and help work around these kinds of issues.
