What is the expected result? When left trigger is not pressed, it should not be pressed in the game.

What happens instead of that?** Left trigger is always pressed in the game. I think it was working before but I was using the older version without SDL 2 game controller DB.

The PS3 controller I use is 050000004c0500006802000000810000. I tried to troubleshoot the issue and it seems that updating the gamecontrollerdb.txt can fix the issue. But I am not sure if it comes only from there or not.

I also noticed something unexpected. When creating the mapping manually with the command: moonlight map -input /dev/input/event1

I get the following line for my 2 PS3 controllers (they have the same ID): 050000004c0500006802000000810000,Sony Computer Entertainment Wireless Controller,a:b0,b:b1,x:b3,y:b2,start:b9,guide:b10,back:b8,leftstick:b11,rightstick:b12,leftshoulder:b4,rightshoulder:b5,dpup:b13,dpleft:b15,dpdown:b14,dpright:b16,leftx:a0,lefty:a1,rightx:a3,righty:a4,lefttrigger:a2,righttrigger:a5,lefttrigger:b6,righttrigger:b7,platform:Linux

It seems that the left trigger is repeated twice with 2 different values as well as right trigger (lefttrigger:a2,righttrigger:a5,lefttrigger:b6,righttrigger:b7). I don't know if it is an error or not during the mapping command. In gamecontrollerdb.txt, only the first value appears (lefttrigger:a2,righttrigger:a5). I tried to use both values at the same time (like the map command suggest) and it did not fix it.

But if I use the second values instead (lefttrigger:b6,righttrigger:b7), everything works fine and lefttrigger does not stay pressed. Do you think updating the DB is enough? Should I post a request to update SDL 2 database? Or could it be due to the way moonlight-embedded uses the game controller inputs?

I just created an account to thank you, you saved me! And it seems that also happens with PS4 controllers finished in 810000.

I am happy it helped someone. I posted an issue also on gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB to update the gamecontrollerdb.txt file as there were no answer from @irtimmer yet. Unfortunately I don't have any PS4 controller but if the issue is fixed for PS3 controllers you should post something for PS4 as well!

After posting on SDL bugzilla, they are wondering if this could be a moonlight bug. If anyone from moonlight-embedded wants to join the conversation, here is the post: https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4686

I had the same issue with my PS3 controller. For my setup it seems to be caused by the "Motion Sensors" device. When I start the client using "-input /dev/input/event1" (i.e. disable usage of motion sensors device), left trigger behaves as expected...

Motion sensor bug was fixed in v2.5.0
