Hi Steve,

Nice emulator, I personally use it as it is the best 2600 emulator out 
there.

I ran the most up to date version of Stella with SDL 1.2.12 DLL...
...The USB dual PlayStation joysticks work 100%.
(two player Asteroids was 100% fine)

Seems to be an issue with the user, and not an issue with SDL or Stella.

Hope this helps!
