Game controller works when connected directly but not via VirtualHere

Submitted by zlowred on #1

I have VirtualHere server running on Raspberry Pi 4 / 64 bit OS, and a client running on Windows 11 Pro. I just got GameSir G7 Pro controller, and it is refusing to work when connected via VirtualHere, doesn't matter if it is a direct USB connection or using included USB dongle. It appears as "game controller device" in Windows device manager but no software detects it. It works on the same machine / OS when connected directly. In Windows event log I'm seeing a lot of "Incorrect function" messages. Happy to share any debug data if provided instructions.

Can you try to use it via virtualhere then post here the /var/log/syslog (or journalctl) around that time from the server

In case it matters, I'm using this version: vhusbdarm64a72

 

I think this is the relevant part:

Try this, ssh to the pi

systemctl stop virtualhere

edit the /usr/local/etc/virtualhere/config.ini file and add the line

ClaimPorts=1

then save and reboot the pi

then try again via VirtualHere.

If it still doesn't work then in the VirtualHere client, right click on the Gamesir and select Custom Event Handler and paste exactly this in:

onReset.$VENDOR_ID$.$PRODUCT_ID$=

then try to use it again via VirtualHere

Note when I connect I briefly see Xbox 360 Controller for Windows device which changes to GameSir-G7 Pro quickly after maybe a second long delay.

Right click on the Gamesir again and then select Custom Event Handler and paste in this line

onReset.3537.0575=

then press OK and try again.

I suspect what is happening is that the controller is told to reboot as an Xbox Controller which it does OK. But some command it sent, which i dont think should be, which causes the firmware to then jam and SURPRISE UNBOUND (means the device itself rebooted and dropped of the USB bus)

You could try this

Right click on the gamesir again and select Custom Event Handler then try

onSetConfiguration.3537.0575=

Then try using again.If that doesnt work still then its not going to wokr via virtualhere unfortunately.

I think it's the opposite. Initially device connects as a generic Xbox 360 Controller for Windows and then it told to reboot as GameSir-G7 Pro which seems to work, as it stays connected as that, and I even see it in the device manager – but somehow is not detected by any software.

When I added onSetConfiguration.3537.0575= it started to connect/disconnect as Xbox 360 Controller for Windows in a forever loop.

Is there a chance to get it fixed in e.g. next version?

I dont have that controller to test with, so it won't be fixed soon
