  1. Hi!
    I would like to ask, how can I make two Dualshock 3 controllers to work on pi3+parsec?
    Scptool works on the pc I am streaming from, but not on the PI.
    Also the parsec xbox driver works, but I can’t map the buttons, and by the default settings, a few of the ps3 controllers buttons are not working, and some of them have weird mappings, like alt+tab, etc.
    Its really annoying.
    Any idea that can help me?
