If using the Raspberry Pi, we heavily recommend using Batocera which has plug and play Sinden Lightgun support built in and is excellent with lots of guides and information on the internet.
Main known issues:
There have been issues with bluetooth modules, if you are having an issue with the app crashing, removing your module or disable it and try again.
Windows 7 support on the latest software seems to support some builds and not others, not sure what the issue is.
Windows 10, trouble starting the lightgun, make sure that the Sinden Lightgun® app has camera permissions if you have more locked down permissions than standard. You shouldn’t need to do this otherwise.
Android Beta
This is a very raw beta of an Android driver. Please see the readme file in the archive for more info. Requires Android V9 or higher and also some kernel pre-requisites. Currently only recommended for advanced users of Sinden Lightgun and Android.
