I'm setting up a steam link machine with an old laptop and I'm running into issues with the controller inputs.I'm using an OEM Dualshock4 that works perfect on my main PC and the laptop if I run the
game directly off the system, however when using steam link the in-game controlls show xbox inputs. Even the big picture mode inputs are playstation, it is just in game that I'm having incorrect inputs

and click to fire (specifically bullet hell top down shooters), rapidly pressing any mouse button while moving the mouse causes all input to lock up. The mouse is frozen and, if I was also moving with
WASD, the character will get stuck moving in a certain direction. The duration of this input lock/delay is directly proportional to how many times the mouse was clicked while moving it. A few times, it

Managed to get this partially working on Linux
1. Connect Wiimote via bluetooth
2. Enter big picture
3. Go to controllers and set up the buttons
4. Use steam input and done!

I managed to play a bit
of Undertale with the horizontal remote. There are issues though:
Does not identify extension controllers (nunchuk, classic controller)

Probably does not support IR aiming

Doesnt support

, I have made EA FC as a Non-Steam shortcut on Steam... nothing works. I think Valve is aware of this issue with EA App games? Is there something to be done from Valve's end to enable better controller
Hello, I've had Steam Link since 2016 and it has mostly worked just fine for me - one of the better purchases I've made in the past decade.

The only issue I'm having with Link is with games that

Not sure if anyone else has this issue on. I have a gamesir x2s paired to my android device via Bluetooth. On The Steamlink App it recognizes the inputs just fine (via test) but once it connects to
my PC, it no longer recognizes my inputs. Anyone else having this concern. I've tested the controller when using native apps on my device and its working just fine

Steam Controller should be working much better in build 902. Please let me know if you're still having issues with that!

is to use the Steam Deck controls themselves, but this is not viable for me. I think some new changes to inputs are making the deck controls override the mouse, interrupting its inputs.
I have been using the Steam Link app on my Steam Deck to stream my main PC's Desktop for Unity development. For a while it has been working like a charm.
Unfortunately since recently, my mouse input

Deck's controls (Either touching the screen, holding down the trigger, or pressing the track pad, everything registers just fine)

In Desktop mode, the Deck's track pad/touch screen/Triggers still works
perfectly, but even mixing inputs from Deck/Mouse, only the Deck's inputs work as intended.

Hovering through things also seems strange. Buttons, icons, etc have an effect when you move the cursor above them

I bought a powera controller to use with my steam link but when it's in use it has awful input lag on the sticks. It can take up to a second for stick movement to stop, and if I move the stick in a
circle a few times then let go it will buffer the commands and keep turning in circles. If I do it for a few seconds the controller will stop taking inputs, stick with whatever the last position it
