HI, the program is great, but it is possible to implement it also for a ps5 controller? Thank you

NiyaShy commented 2 years ago

Hey, in theory it would be possible, but AFAIK PS(5) controllers use bluetooth and a different "framework" for transmitting the button presses (aka, not XInput), and that would require implementing a completely different polling system just for that.

In short: Possible: yes Likely to happen: no

Do you know if there something to check the battery level using code?

Let me startpage that for you: Found a reddit thread about monitoring the battery level of PS controllers, and according to it current versions of DS4Windows let you set up notifications and monitoring, including using the light bar and/or telling you on a button press. See https://www.reddit.com/r/PS5/comments/k3ekh5/dualsense_pc_battery_level/
