After connecting a bluetooth controller to my phone, my steam link was stuck to permanently having to use a controller option and no longer having the ability to switch between mouse/keyboard, mouse
or controller only. No option with the 3 dots at the top left corner

I re-installed steam link, steam, and manually deleted ".vdf" files that contained all controller presets. I went to controller

Hi there,

I could easily pair my Wii U PRO controller to the link, but there's quite a bit of latency in registering the input data enough to render it almost inusable. I don't have this problem
with the Steam controller (as expected).

Has anyone else tried to use the Wii U PRO controller and experienced a similar issue? Have you found a workaround?

What I'm asking is if my for example XCOM 2 profile which emulates a number of keyboard and mouse inputs will work with my controller on my android?? If not, then there will be a serious issue
because I play the game with mods and not all mods support gamepad that is regular Xbox input so...

Edit: Yes it will... Sweet!

When I use controllers paired to android device using BT and then go to Big Pictures controller settings for game I get told Steam Input needs to have "android controller" selected in main
settings for android controllers.

This is an issue as there is no way to select android controller like what Steam tells me, so can not

that I have a steam controller, and I can use it, but seems to struggle between mouse input and controller input. In some games I will see shortcuts for both the keyboard key and controller button

Some games also default to mouse/keyboard input and I have to turn off my controller and turn it back on to get

It's made gameplay impossible. My xbox controller has the latest firmware and Game DVR is disabled.

I got to a point where it works, but the analog sticks will delay input from the rest of the

controller paired to my iPad. When I am done playing on my iPad and can go back to my PC, I launch a game and my PC controller does not work inside of steam games. The only way I have found to fix this issue
it to restart my PC. It is like steam link is still connected to the steam client so it still has "control" over which input it is using. Is there a way to get steam to realize I am now trying to play

So I have the same issue on my android phone and the samsung tv app. I have tried connecting a PS4 and Switch Pro controller to both. They both connect to my TV and phone. I start steam link and it
controllers connected but when I open either controller to configure the inputs all the buttons are set to nothing and trying to set the inputs does not work because the controllers buttons are still

Just recently purchased a Steam link and using my Steam Controller ran into something strange.

If I exit Big Picture mode, and Steam isn't in focus/active window, my Steam controller will not allow
