[PD] Further GEM rendering problems

[Jonathan Goodwin]

Ok, I seemed to have fixed the prob! Was my bad patching I think, sorry I'm
a total newb at this!

Rather than copy & pasting all the of the GEM objects (on the left) I was
linking to the 1st gamepad key and recycling them for the 2nd key I want to
use, I just used the same pix_movie object for both buttons. I've attatched
the patch so you can see what I mean!

Thanks
