Pi4 and Xbox One Controller: Emulators not working

[Toofan]

@quicksilver I got like 4 diff ones with bluetooth. There are two different versions of xbox one wireless controllers. V1 which only has wifi direct. And version 2 which has bluetooth in addtion and also a headphone jack.

Short answer is that the ones I have are 1708 model.

@Toofan In this case, give xpadneo a try - install it from github.com/atar-axis/xpadneo. This should handle the Xbox One wireless controllers, while xpad should be able to handle the wired (Xbox 360) controller.

@mitu my bad. Its xpadneo Ive installed. I wrote xpad in the first post for short :) im gonna make a video so you see what I mean.

[mitu]

No need for a video. If the xpadneo driver doesn't work, then try the xpad driver (reinstall from source). It should handle at least the wired Xbox 360 controller.

@mitu wired 360 works fine. I need wireless

Xpadneo worked awesome on RPI3, but it does not work on RPI4... at least not yet. I've tried several times with different methods, and it's got some compatibility issues.

You can always do what I did - head over to the Atar-Axis Xpadneo github page, show some love and donate a few coffees with a request comment, and wait patiently hoping that the driver will get updated. I certainly hope it does... Atar-Axis nailed it on the RPI3.

@theretroprince I did. Supported 2 cups 😀

[theretroprince]

@Toofan Awesome! Hopefully we'll get an update for RPI4 with the same flawless performance that we had on RPI3.

@theretroprince Did you try this https://github.com/medusalix/xow ?

[theretroprince]

@CobraKai I have not, but it looks like the xow driver is only for use with the Xbox wireless dongle. (I think it only references bluetooth on the 'supported devices' frame to differentiate it from the the other models)
