  1. Xbox Series X controller on PC DirectInput issue


    Whenever I connect my Xbox Series X controller to the PC via usb-c cable the controller is recognized as Xinput and works perfectly in games, however when I connect the controller via bluetooth the conttoller is recognized as DirectInput and I always have problems trying playing games. Problems such the game controls are swapped for example. How do I fix this issue making my controller be recognized as Xinput connected via bluetooth?

    the controller I leave it in DirectInput again,the funny thing is that in the xbox pass menu in adndroid, the controller works, but when I get into a game it stops working.

    And if I connect it to the pc in Xinput it works without problems

    Future support for extended button mapping on Xbox platform

    I agree, but the problem is that even this remapping is limited to the available buttons that are seen on a standard controller, this is not extensible at this time. The Elite controller features back buttons, but they can only be remapped to standard functions, the limitation is placed by the current XInput software, not by the hardware manufacturers, so a software limitation is imposed on developers. Xinput was designed to replace DirectInput, but the feature set is seriously short.

    DirectInput - Older API - 8 Axis, 128 Buttons + POV

    Xinput - Newer API 4 Axis, 10 Buttons, 2 Triggers + POV

    This is why PC games favour DirectInput over Xinput, but Xbox platform only supports Xinput at this time.

    Xbox one S serie controller and xbox one V3 wireless PC dongle

    Hi,

    The Series S and X controllers work on same devices the earlier controller can connect to. This includes:

    Xbox One Game receiver for Windows 10

    Bluetooth (PC, Android, iOS)

    Xbox One, One S, X and Series X/S.

    xbox one controller for pc directinput / Xinput

    The main problem is that I cannot use 2 different controllers (xbox one and 3dparty) at the same time, in cause of Directinput and Xinput...

    I forgot to say, that I'm from Greece and searching around the web I didn't find any solution to this one.

    So my only question is how can I get my money back because I'm disappointed with this situation and I can afford to pay another 50+ euro to buy another one.
