How can I connect a ps4 controller to a xbox one with streaming to my pc?

Thanks! i have been looking for hours on how to do it.

You have to use USB CORD for it.

Hi NotAperson01,

Yes, but you have to have a special adapter for it. I didnt even know it was possible until I seen a Youtuber using his PS4 controller on his Xbox. I do believe the adapter is around $40 though. So you might be better off getting an Xbox controller unless
you have a PS4 too.

What you wanna do first is take out the batteries and toss the controller in the trash

Just kidding lol maybe

Hello Matutu,

By USB adapter, you're talking about the one designed for Windows, right? The little USB dongle that plugs into a PC and allows controllers to connect wirelessly.

I don't *think* this works on the console itself, but I cannot be sure. I would advise against spending money on that as a solution in the way you describe.

However, there are a couple alternatives:

-- If you don't mind using the controller as a wired controller, you can run a USB from console to where you play and plug the controller in.

-- Alternatively, using a Windows 10 PC in the location you actually play, you can stream the Xbox One's video output to the PC, but, more importantly for you, you can stream controller inputs back from PC to Xbox One.

Elaborating on the Windows 10 example, even if you plan to play on a TV (directly connected via HDMI to the console, or however the setup is currently), you can have a Windows 10 PC in the room to which you stream the video output across the local network
(PC can be connected by wire to router for minimal latency), and to the PC you can either connect the controller by USB cable OR use the Wireless Adapter and have the controller connected to the PC wirelessly. In both cases, controller inputs go from Windows
10 PC back to console, and for video you could be looking at either your existing monitor or Windows 10 PC.

With the Windows 10 setup, with controller inputs and video output now being transmitted across the local network, you may introduce some latency to your gaming, but there's not really any good way to know before you try. If the PC is wired to the router,
the latency should be minimal, but I cannot say for certain. What I do know is that I have streamed the Xbox One video output to my own PC (both connected wirelessly to router) on the highest settings, with a controller connected via USB to console, and I
have not had any significant performance issues.
