How to Setup PS5 Controller Gamepad Overlay in OBS (Console Hand Camera)

[@Yuuki1]

quick update, u don't need DS4Windows anymore, its all set to go since now Dualsense is fully suported on Windows 10

Thanks , I tought that this is really a virus !

[@davinhunt7558]

[@Xm4GamingPickle]

I was just about to ask "Even though mine lines up perfectly do i still need to download it"

[@joeyAdominguez]

my PC for some reason needs DS4Windows. I uninstalled it, controller overlay stopped working, and I had to reinstall it back

[@GhostFoxIOI]

doesnt work on windows 11 lol

[@valenser2054]

First of all, sorry for my enligsh im from Argentina. I´ve seen a lot of videos about how to make appear my DualSense Joystick and no one works to me. This video it´s amazing, litterally everything, how its done. Explained and separated by parts clearly. Thanks you for the video!! i send you a big hug from Buenos Aires, Argentina!

Thank you! Been trying to figure out why the controls were incorrect for awhile now! It worked for my DS5 but my Edge was wrong. Once I installed DS4 Windows all the issues went away.

[@justehcupcake]

Dang dude, never expected the vid to get this popular

[@justehcupcake]

OMG! You showed them how to properly fix the inputs... thank god

[@justehcupcake]

Also I will say I had no idea how convoluted getting it to work with the console was - as I don’t have it... but thx wish you the best

[@MidnightMan]

Thank you for creating the game pads and laying the ground work! It is quite a process but it works with the PS5 console. Appreciate you working with me on this.

[@XiaolinDraconis]

To properly fix the inputs I just leave a browser window open and capture window, it only messes up when you have obs use a browser source. Then I transform Edit and crop the top and sides. I just don't understand why the css stylesheet you made has a white background with a white controller, instead of green or magenta. Also this method doesn't require me to install DS4Windows.

I know the video's old, but this came up today in a streamer's chat. Once you've done this, do you have to reconnect to the PS5 if you unplug it from the PC, or the PC is turned off?

[@MidnightMan]

Yes you do, but you can easily reconnect to PS5 using usb c cable and plug into console

Hi! It works, but... When I open the game if I press Options button it splits my screen adding another player.. D:

[@RenGaSenpaiChannel]

@Tomas Soto bro I solved the problem setting DS4Windows to Exclusive Mode.. in the last tab, check the relative box. Be sure to disable Windows Game Capture, nVidia GeForce Experience overlay and close Steam in order to run DS4 in exclusive mode. Otherwise those programs will take control of your controller before than DS4 and will be impossibile for it to use controller exclusively. After that you can open again those programs/services

[@TracrrrTV]

here is my current issue. I have followed all steps up to copying the URL, putting it in OBS. But when i press buttons after adding, its not showing the input, its only showing the controller. I have not downloaded DS4 because it seems downloading that only helps fix what certain input is pressed to show. Do you know how to fix this?. I've seen where people downloaded DS4 and then it messed up. I plan to use this on COD, but this is currently not working, and im stumped. please any help is appreciated
