Xbox 360 wireless controller not working anymore (since OE 3.2)

bhabba commented 11 years ago

Since I've upgraded from Openelec (ION x64 build) version 3.0.6 to 3.2 my Xbox 360 wireless controller doesn't work anymore. This is obviously a regression because there was a similar issue in the past which had been fixed in version 3.0 RC3 (see https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/issues/1580).

The controller is connected through the common USB receiver (third party replica of the official microsoft one): http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/accessories/xbox-360-wireless-gaming-receiver-windows

What's the deadline for 5.0? Will be able to test by the 30th Dec earliest.

Hi. I've tested both builds today, those are my findings:

The first build (r19861) behaves the same as the one from Nov. 11 (r19621) which means it suffers from the same issues I've reported in this post (except I couldn't manage to run into the not-being-able-to-navigate-left/right bug).
The second build (r19855) seems to be identical to the one from Dec. 6 (r19740) regarding xbox controller support. This means I could easily reproduce the freeze/kernel panic during boot-up which I've reported in this post. I don't no anything about USB request blocks (URBs), how severe this issue is from a developers point of view or how easy or not it is to fix it. But I'd say it's not exactly negligible if you shut your HTPC down (but don't disconnect it from current), power it on again and then be confronted with a screen like this... :grimacing:

However, I hope this information was somewhat helpful. Of course I'm still very pleased with the progress @zzattack has made so far in adapting the xpad driver. :blush:

Hi,

It's still not working on a Raspberry Pi B+. I have tried both 5.0 official and the build from @zzattack. However, I tried 5.0 official on a x86 (NUC DN2820FYKH) and it works fine (although the lights keep blinking) so I guess the bug is specific to the ARM build. Anything I can do to help investigate the issue?

Awesome @zzattack, thanks for working on this! I'm excited about this ticket. :)

Hi, I can confirm Xbox 360 controller does not work on Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. I also have wireless xbox 360 controller and a xbox one controller if you want me to do some testing.

I have a wireless and a wired XBox 360 controller on for my Pi2. If there is anything to test I would like to help!
