For anyone having issues connecting 2 PS5 controllers to laptop/PC , You need to enable Steam Imput for Xbox controllers in Steam/Controllers settings and PlayStation Contrller Suport need to be enabled NOT ( Enabled in Games w/o Support) just enabled

[@DJNightcoreHD]

Thanks for this. I have a 3rd part PS4 controller that just wouldn't connect like the official brand PS4 one did, but you fixed that problem for me in just a couple seconds!

[@LeonardoVarini]

The input lag when you connect a second Sony dual shock 4 over bluetooth is really high, both controllers become totally jammed (it does not matter the distance from the device on which you are pairing). It is been years that I am trying to fix that without any success...

Hey! First of all have a good day. I want to buy a gaming and uni laptop and I have only $1100 so I was looking to gigabyte g5, msi gf65 thin and sword 15 then luckily found your channel so I'm asking you, which laptop is the best and which is your favourite for gaming and as a school computer? (I'm going to watch your videos tomorrow)

[@rickstechrepairs]

best of the bunch is hard to say straight power the G5 with its higher wattage 3060 gamed best but keyboard was lacking in feel out of the bunch i enjoyed the sword 15 was the most well rounded but still terrible value and if you are needing any of these laptops for a full school day of battery, they wont make it past 3 hours of use

It's ridiculous in today's world that it's this difficult to get 2 wireless controllers to work separately on PC. I can't even get 2 XInput Bluetooth controllers to even work. I don't want to use steam! I don't want to give in! Sigh...

[@rickstechrepairs]

What Store did you purchase Takes Two from?

[@sutton4791]

@@rickstechrepairs Oh sorry. My comment was a generalized statement about how much of a pain it is to play 2 player games on pc. Microsoft should have updated their generic drivers such as XInput and DInput to read all controllers connected as seperate controllers over Bluetooth. Like wired ones do. I didn't want to use steam, because I didn't want to add my local games to steam. Which are mostly "free" cough cough. I finally gave up and gave in. I was just hoping your video showed some new or unknown software that can do what Steam can.

Does this work with PS5 controllers? I want to buy 2 controllers to play FIFA on PC and since PS5 and PS4 controllers are the same price where I live, I figured I go with PS5 ones. From the research I did, I didn't find any evidence of it working or not working. The main goal is to connect the controllers via Bluetooth. Also the game is bought from origin and not from Steam. I have no problem installing 3rd party software. Has anyone tried it and if yes how did it go? PS if I have to I could connect the controllers via USB but I would like to avoid it.

@@tamziy It worked with some minor flaws. First of all I did not use it on steam games (I don't have games on steam) I am using it with Origin and Epic games. I am using DS4 Windows and Hidhid drivers and it works both for single and dual controller and I don't see why not for 3 or 4 controllers. The only problems I encountered is that some games I (I don't remember specifically) don't work with ps4 controller and you must emulate an xbox controller from the DS4 Windows and the most important when playing FIFA 22 with two controllers they disconnect one at a time at random times, I don't know if this is a problem with DS4 or with the Bluetooth chip or with windows 11 because I am running a developer pre released build. In every case it is not a big problem because it does not happen often
