Does BRLTTY itself manage to produce output?  Did you let it use auto as
protocol, or did you specify another protocol?  Could you run the debug
batch file so we logs about what is happening?

I have tested both on my windows XP with the qemu-emulated driver, it
just works in both cases. For other Windows version, I don't know,
cf what I said earlier on the list:

“
I have to say I don't remember. libusb-win32 is supposed to be the
older, maintained-but-not-developped-any-more version, while libusb-1.0
is supposed to have better support. I don't know more, you would have to
see the libusb-win32/libusb-1.0 websites, I can't afford the time to do
it myself.
