      As many of you might know, i had serious trouble with PSX emulation freezing while playing with PS3 controllers connected through the built-in BT unit on my Pi3. This seems to be fixed like this: I bought a BT dongle, disabled the built-in BT and connected my PS3 controllers anew... no more freezing!

      So, to me, this is a clear sign of the built-in BT unit and/or driver being buggy!!! I have had VERY LITTLE response on the threads i made about this issue, like it didn't exist or was a user error. But i can now conclude that this is not the case.

      I know that a handful of other users experience the same freezing as i did, and to those of you that do, i can advise you to get a BT USB dongle and try that way instead!
