Using DS4 as a device within gimx config

Could you please try with the x86_64 version?

[onetymeohnly]

I managed to control the PS4 with x86_64, which is weird since it wasn't working for me before with either 4.3 or 5.0. But there's an error coming up in terminal that keeps repeating:

libusb_transfer failed with status LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR (endpoint=0x84)

and the DS4 disconnects after around 8 or so seconds.

This is how it looks when the DS4 is connected to the USB port that I used frequently with 4.3, but no longer works

The cable you are using for the DS4 may be defective. Please try another one.

[onetymeohnly]

I'll try, but it's working fine for me currently in 4.3 with DS4.

[Matlo]

I tried to reproduce your issues, and I realized that GIMX 5.0 i386 can't work on a 64bit Windows.
I had no issue running GIMX 5.0 x86_64.
Maybe you should try to uninstall all GIMX versions including USBDK (using the Programs and Features panel).
And then install GIMX 5.0 x86_64.

You should also check that your drivers are up-to-date, especially the USB controller drivers.
And if your computer has USB 2.0 ports, use them instead of USB 3.0 ports.

This is my result from 5.0 x86_64

When I shift+esc I get

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your tests, and for your patience.
I believe there is a bug in either GIMX 5.0 or USBDK 1.0.6.
Could you please do the following tests:

• Install GIMX 4.3, install USBDK 1.0.6, start GIMX and see if it works.
• Install GIMX 5.0, remove USBDK 1.0.6 using the Programs and Features panel, install USBDK 1.0.4, start GIMX and see if it works.

[onetymeohnly]

I feel like I should be thanking you for your patience haha
I will be out of town for a day so I can't test it yet

Edit: Thank you for waiting. Here are my results:

GIMX 4.3 x64 + USB Dk 1.06 x64
PC connects to PS4 but get the "libusb_transfer failed with status LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR (endpoint=0x84)" etc. and disconnect at 10 second bug.

GIMX 5.0 x64 + USB Dk 1.04 x64
I get the:

"Detected USB adapter: DS4.
libusb_init: Entity not found.
No controller was found on USB buses.
adapter_detect failed"

error.

Now to make sure that 4.3 x64 was working as normal with USB Dk 1.04 I gave that a try too after these tests. I got the same message as the 5.0 x64 + USB Dk 1.04 x64 result.

Now here's the thing. Before 5.0 came out, I never got 4.3 x64 to connect to my PS4. I actually came here on the forums and found someone else had this problem until he/she tried the i386 installer and said it worked for them. So I tried it too, and I too got it to connect to my PS4 perfectly. So after I ran these tests and tried 4.3 x64, I tried 4.3 i386 after and it worked perfectly with USB Dk 1.04, as I have been using GIMX. I can control the PS4 and I do not get the libusb error. Then I uninstalled USB Dk 1.04 and installed 1.06, and that worked perfectly too! Then I tried GIMX 5.0 i386 with the default USB Dk 1.06 and got the "adapter_detect failed" error. Same happened when I replaced USB Dk 1.06 with 1.04. Again, I'm running Windows 8.1 x64. I know it seems strange but these are my results. I hope it will help you. Thank you for being very patient and I find this software amazing. Thank you for all your hard work.

Hi,
Thanks for the tests.
I think you have the same error as luk; http://gimx.fr/forum/viewtopic.php?p=7412#p7412
The problem was solved using a USB 2.0 port.
I believe this is a USBDK issue. I reported it there: https://github.com/daynix/UsbDk/issues/7
