Moonlight is running very well on my uConsole, but I can’t get it to use the inbuilt controller keys.
When I use Hardware Tester locally on the uConsole it recognizes the gamepad buttons. But not through Moonlight and Sunshine on the host PC. And Steam for example also doesn’t recognize a controller.
I run the QMK firmware for the keyboard, and the Bookworm PI OS.
Any ideas?
I use antimicrox, from the package antimicro to remap my game keys to normal keys. I would assume this would also solve your problem.
In my case, I want a single button to press for page up/down/end/home.
Okay thanks, well that should work, if I create a mapping profile for each game. It’s not the nicest solution though.
What I really would want is that the game controller buttons are forwarded directly by Moonlight, like with other game controllers. I’m not sure what exactly triggers Moonlight to do that.
I am not really informed if there is a software for Linux that simulates an XBOX game pad for example, that might work. I’ll search some more, unless there are other ideas.
Okay, after playing around with several different tools, I found something that works: GitHub - sezanzeb/input-remapper: 🎮 ⌨ An easy to use tool to change the behaviour of your input devices.
I got it to map the d-pad keys to either an analogue stick or simulated d-pad, and also the other keys can be mapped to a virtual controller.
