Sigh. And I tested the new USB code on a bunch of controllers, too... just not that one, apparently.

GameSir G8, you said? If this is newly broken, I assume this is connected via USB to an Android TV box or something? If so, can you get the vendor ID/product ID? (We have run into controllers that are actually multiple different controllers sold as the same ones on more than one occasion, so I like to make sure.)

It is connected via usb to my phone - samsung s23. I downgraded to stable and its fine. You mean the product id for the controller? Cause if so, it has been erased from the label. I can provide a link from the official website where i bought it.

If you plug it into a Windows or Mac or Linux box, it'll show up in the device manager and you can view properties -- it'll have a vendor ID and a product ID, both two-byte values usually shown in hexadecimal format.

Basically, it's the value that the *computer* (or phone) gets that actually tells it what is plugged in, so means I can make sure whatever I test with is in fact the same thing. (For instance, "Xbox Wireless Controller" covers about 7 different devices, *several of which use different versions of the Xbox GIP (Game Input Peripheral) protocol*... hence why getting the VID/PID is important to make sure we're testing the right thing.)

I am sorry but i have no way of connecting it to a pc. It has no bluetooth only usb c. I dont have a female usb c to connect it with.

Same issue here with my Xbox Series X controller (connected wirelessly to my chromecast google tv). A button is not working anymore. There goes the only day I had in weeks to relax with some games..

VID: 3537 | GAMESIR
PID: 0108 | Gamesir-G8

Does this mean that reverting to the non-beta build didn't work for you? E.g., not just the .27 beta, but the .26 release one didn't work with your controller? Also, when you say "connected wirelessly" do you mean Bluetooth, or do you mean you have the wireless dongle plugged into the Chromecast?

Okay, I've made a fix for the issue in .27, that'll be in the next beta.

cminor, I'd still really like to know if you were seeing your problem prior to the beta, though; if you were, there's something else going on in your case as this would ONLY have been an issue in .27 and only for USB HID devices.

Thanks! 🍻☝️ and if you read this, you guys can consider implementing picture in picture in the future updates :)
