Trouble pairing PS5 controller. #16

Closed madbunnylabs closed 1 year ago

madbunnylabs commented 1 year ago

I'm using a M5 stamp Pico board but I can't seem to get the controller to connect.

I'm using ESP32 version 1.0.6

If I use the PS4 controller library with the "PS5" controller it pairs fine to the m5 stamp, but of course I can only use the joysticks as none of the other buttons work with the ps4 library. Since I can connect with the PS4 library, I believe this means I have the correct mac address.

However If I try to connect the ps5 controller to the PS5 library, the controller doesn't connect and turns off after about 20 seconds.

I get this chain of connection requests on the serial monitor

Ready E (165032) ps5_L2CAP: L2CA_CONNECT_REQ ret=64 to E (170033) ps5_L2CAP: L2CA_CONNECT_REQ ret=76

I've been stuck on this for the past week, so any help would be greatly appreciated. Just don't know what else to try.

PS: Thank you so much for putting this library together for the esp32!

Have you used the MAC address of the controller? This is different to that of the ps4 library were you would need to use the pc/phone/console MAC address

Thank you for the reply. I tried using the MAC address of the controller first but wasn't having luck. I was able to get it to work using the MAC address of the controller as you suggested and placing the PS5 controller in pairing mode for the first time as I saw you comment in one of the older posts. Thanks for the help, I was finally able to get a small RC car working. ^^

I'm glad you got it working!
