I have done a lot of google’ing and I can’t really find an answer to this. My xbox one controller is labeled as controller in windows 10. In the Kodi log it labels it as .

16:28:50.803 T:7288 NOTICE: PERIPHERALS::CPeripheralAddon::Register - new joystick device registered on addon->peripheral.joystick/0: Xbox 360-compatible controller

so I added altnames to the entries for the xbox one S and the 360 controller keymaps.

But nothing is working.

Any help? I’ve been pulling my hair out on this one.

Not sure how to edit but I forgot to mention I’m trying to use this on a steam link but even outside of the steam link just using the app, the controller won’t work.

Now I did install the Plex home theater app and it works perfectly fine in that application so I will in the mean time just use that application.

I want to also point out that I did check the firmware of the controller using the Xbox Accessory app and I have the most up to date drivers.

The controller also is the controller with the 3.5mm jack. It’s not an S controller either.
