PS4 controller, right analogue stick wont work at all

@darthlink All my ps4 controllers are working out of the box (with the latest kernel!), connection is stable (ds4drv is very unstable) and the inputs are correct (no ghost inputs, ds4drv has ghost inputs)...
So, I expirienced that ds4drv is a really bad implementation of drivers for ps4 cotrollers.

Ok thanks but how did you experience that ds4drv is a bad implementation of ps4 controller driver if for you everything works fine ?

I guest i was unlocky enough to get the controllers that do not works ok with the ds4drv but i will give it another try this evening .

as of now, everytime i want to connect the controller with bluetooth, i have to delete the registered device then re-register it. If i dont do that, it just never connect.

Also there is still the right analog stick probleme that as is own mind and have decided to not work any how so far.

I wonder if i buy the usb/bluetooth dongle for ps4 controller, do you think it may work better ?? I would not want to buy it and end up having the same issue loll

@DarkWolf To clarify, your PS4 controllers able to connect via the Bluetooth menu flawlessly? I will have to try since I just updated to the latest kernel. Prior, they would not connect unless I installed ds4drv.

@darthlink I am able to map the right analog stick properly and use it without issue other that input lag.

I am able to map the hole controller in the input setting for the controller within emulationstation settings but it still wont work for any games at all. I can always only have one of them working. If i set the right analog stick as if it was the left in the input settings, then only the rigth analog work but not the left. It is weird but that is what actually happens. I can, with one or the other also, set them as if they were the D-Pad and it does work but i am still with the same issue where i cant have both analog stick to work at same time. For 2D games i dont really care because it is not needed but for games like quake 2, i am screwed !!

@darthlink If you adjust the mappings in emulation station differently than how the controller is supposed to be set up, the emulator will not read the controls correctly and it will make it more difficult to figure out why the controller is not working correctly.
Another poster asked, and is still awaiting an answer. What emulator are you using to play quake 2 and soul reaver?
Do you have a ps3 or xbox controller to test and make sure that it is not related to your settings being messed up?

My ps4 controller was mapped via the emulation station input set up and both analog sticks work on n64 games, kodi, moonlight.

I am using the PS4 controller only and i am usung the lr-pcsx-rearmed emulator for PlayStation 1 games.

I had also setup my controller via the emulationstation setup menu. I have not reverted it like i know i can. So far it is still as its suppose to be, Analog with analog and D-pad with D-pad. I was just mentioning it because i know it works this way if i setup the left or right analog stick instead of D-pad but it only transfer the problem to witch ever analog i may setup as the d-pad.
