This update brings a variety of gamepad related updates.
For starters, the PS3 (DualShock 3) gamepad mode has been dropped in favor of a new PS4 (DualShock 4) mode.
This new gamepad mode allows you to make the built-in controls act like a genuine DualShock 4 gamepad, which brings a very pleasant side-effect with it:
You can now use the built-in gamepad to control your streamed PlayStation 4 games via Sony’s new official PS4 Remote Play app.
Furthermore, the OS now supports a variety of new, previously unsupported, external gamepads, like Xiaomi’s official Bluetooth Controller.
If you had trouble with external gamepads before, maybe give them another spin to see if they work now!
Finally: Should you wish to give the new PS4 Remote Play compatibility a try, please check the attached guide for details on how to get everything set up.
Special thanks to kuraudo1996 for the set-up guide and the initial comment / suggestion that got me interested in working out a DualShock 4 driver.
