Xbox One Controller not work on Steam Link, on a Samsung TV if the games are not from Steam.
Hello,

I have a Samsung TV with the Steam Link application installed in its latest version.

I have an Xbox One controller that I connect to cable TV.

The remote works for me on the TV when the games are directly downloaded from Steam.

However, with the original games that I add to my Steam library, I cannot play with the Xbox One Controller.

Big Picture detects it to me as if it were a keyboard.

What can I do to get the Xbox One controller to work with original non-Steam games?

Thank you

they may not be remote controller friendly. i don't know much about that stuff though.
and you look in Google for the reason. maybe the point is that games do not have controller support?

Try those games locally first. Do they work with the gamepad then?

En efecto, los juegos son compatibles con el mando. En el ordenador juego perfectamente.

El problema viene cuando conecto el mando de Xbox One por cable en la TV Samsung.

Los juegos descargados directamente desde steam, funcionan con el mando. Los juegos originales añadidos de forma externa, no funcionan con el mando.

Lo curioso es que en el modo Big Picture ya lo detecta como un juego que va a funcionar con teclado.
:teddy_talk: I think, Steam link is a bit temperamental.

I got it when it released years ago and it took a bit of tweaking to get it to work with most Steam games.

It depends on how you're connecting your Xbox one controller, is it wireless or wired?
Are you connecting it through your Samsung TV or through the Steam Link hardware itself?
And, what non-Steam game(s) are you trying to play as not all games are Xbox controller friendly.
I would try using an Xbox 360 controller wired/wireless, see if that makes a difference.


Rather than play a guessing game on Steam Community.
Here's a few links to the Steam Link Discussion forums:

Take one step at a time. So the games work with the gamepad when launching directly, without anything Steam. Is that correct?
Next, start them LOCALLY but through Steam. See what happens.

Hola,

tus indicaciones me han hecho encontrar una solución.

Como tu dices, arranco el juego en Mi PC de forma local y llego al menú del juego que si puedo controlar con el mando.

Luego me voy a mi TV Samsung, conecto el mando 2 o 3 veces y ya puedo jugar.

Muchas gracias!
