I'm running the latest version of MelonDS: 0.9.5. I can't figure out how to control two instances at the same time; only the focused instance accepts keyboard input. I tried changing the controls for Instance 2 to WASD instead of the arrow keys, but that didn't solve my problem. What am I missing?

been having this issue for weeks now too , i tried plugging in a controller to solve the issue which just creates more issues , the controller now controls both instances but keyboard still only controls the focused instance , major brainache

Looks like there is no easy way to unbind a button in melonDS; no reminder on how to unbind exists.

For now, the best way out seems to be manually editing the ini file. It would be good to create a GitHub issue asking for a better user experience, though.

I've figured this out. It's impossible to control the unfocused instance with keyboard, but it is possible with a joystick controller, and you have to set instance 2's input to different buttons than instance 1.
