Host doesn't recognize PS4 Controller

[mathiasxs]

Hello, I got everything working and connected successfully to the host pc.
But I can't use my controller. I can only move the mouse around with the touchpad. Only in moonlight menu I can use my controller.

Controller: PS4
Windows 11 Pro
Steam Big Picture
Sunshine
1080p 60fps default settings

I'll suggest looking at #1
Also, what's your tv model ?

Samsung TV GQ55Q70R QLED from 2019 (Tizen 5.0 I guess)

The controller is connected by Bluetooth with the tv

I have a Samsung TV QN65Q80RAFXZA QLED from 2019 as well, and the app can detect the controller, but inputs are not being passed to the server... I'm also using a DS4. Sound also isn't working, but the controller not working is a higher priority...

The Cpp part doesn't seems to detect the controller (but the JS does, which is why it's working to navigate the app but not while streaming).
Passing the inputs from the JS to the Cpp might solve the issue, i this is something worth trying i think

I have 2019 QA55Q70RAJXXZ (Tizen 5.0 as well), tried android controller and xbox one controller via bluetooth. Both have the same issue as others mentioned above, that controller can navigate the app but not working in game.
Sound works fine for me though.

Hey there. I tested this on the Samsung QN49Q6F TV, which I believe is running Tizen 4.0. My version is 1341.

The app connects to the host, but none of the controllers I tried worked. When I use the DualSense and DualShock 4 connected via Bluetooth directly to the TV, I can navigate through the Moonlight app menu, but the controls don't respond during streaming. And if I use the 8BitDo adapter, version 1, I can't even navigate the Moonlight app menu, let alone during the streaming session.

Anyway, I really appreciate you guys' effort on this!

QN55Q6F with Tizen 3 or 3.5 same issue, can navigate, but no input is sent and tried to test with https://hardwaretester.com/gamepad nothing is detected with PS5 controller

I had the same problem: My control (EasySMX ESM-9124) works in the moolight menu, but it doesn't work when connecting to the Host PC. My TV is a Samsung UN58MU6120 (Tizen 3.0)

Thought I'd notify this thread, there is a PR fix i made for the controller issue. I say 'fix' loosely because I have tested the build with the xbox controller and the 8bitdo controller. There is some issues with Bluetooth, but over USB it seems to works fine, and only tested with Tizen 4.0 TV and Tizen 6.0 TV.

PR is here if you are able to generally help out and test, and hopefully improve further. I will say it's more of an improved test build:

#7

If you'd like the prebuilt .wgt to push to the TV without Docker with the controller fix, this is the latest test build available on my repo:

I hope someone else can likely try and check things out and improve further than I can do.
