Xbox Controller Input Bug

Jump to Best Response

I am currently using an Xbox Series S controller on my MacBook Pro 2019. As far as I know, everything is updated to the latest software as of March 24th, 2022. I am using the Google Chrome web browser to play Stadia, and for a while the controller was working fine. When I got out and re-entered full screen, the start and other button (the button with the two squares, I forget what it's called) don't register as their respective buttons. The start button makes the browser think I want Google Assistant, while the other button takes a screenshot. I do not want this, and I'm not too sure how to change it. Perhaps restarting the browser would work, but I make a post to bring it the attention of the developers to fix this issue. Overall, enjoyable service and I think it's really neat. Thank you for your time!

Hi @thehighbread - Sadly the Series X/S controller is not "officially" supported as of yet.  You can find the list of supported controllers here: https://support.google.com/stadia/answer/9578631?hl=en

I've been able to use my Series X controller without issues in other games, but I do occasionally get a controller glitch in certain games.  Sorry about that!

Hello @thehighbread 

Thanks for sharing this information. Hope it doesn't happen more often. 

Looks like pausing the game and continue the game reset the controller input like it is a Stadia controller (which has a screenshot/save clip button and a Google Assistant button). 

Please know you can always save screenshot or save 30 seconds clips by holding the f12 button on your keyboard. :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

@thehighbread That's a very interesting discovery. Just curious, which game were you playing? I kind of want to test it out myself right now.

Also. make sure to submit your discovery as a feedback through the app. This definitely doesn't sound like an intended feature and submitting the feedback through the app is the official way to let the devs know about the issue.
