Here are all the ingredients, along with sauces to get it.

Raspberry Pi Zero - $5

2 x 8BitDo Zero Controllers - ~$20

USB OTG Hub - ~$1.60

Mini HDMI to HDMI plug - $0.80

32GB MicroSD Memory card $9.99

Almost forgot the Asus Bluetooth Dongle $12.95

You can probably get a cheaper ~$2.00 Bluetooth dongle on eBay if you want to save money. I just happen to have this one from a previous project.

Jaybird Earphone box - $0.00 - I had one in my house. Or buy one and get free earphones :-)

Total cost $50.34 or $39.39 (with cheaper bluetooth dongle)

Threw in Retropie and done.

The one interesting tidbit I discovered along the way is when I plug the micro usb cable into the OTG hub, the Raspberry Pi zero gets powered also. The cheap ass OTG Hub makes its easy to have ports mounted onto the side of the Jaybird box (or whatever box you have lying around, Legos maybe?).

u/Jhubbz86 · 17 pointsr/buildapcsales

As someone who owns the white and Dawn Shadow versions of this, I can tell you I used the Asus BT400, and it worked ok, but I was also only ever 2-3 feet away from it. Even then, I still had some small issues with it. I ended up sucking it up and buy the official Microsoft Xbox One Adapter for Windows. I've had zero issues since, and I highly suggest you just got for that, especially since it's only $19 right now, as opposed to it's normal $25.

u/Kables07 · 9 pointsr/pcmasterrace

Yes it's a PS4 controller.

All you need is a DS4 controller, Bluetooth USB and DS4Tool

Here's how I do it on Windows 8:

  1. You plug the Bluetooth USB then access the Windows 8 Device Settings

  2. Press and hold the Share and PS button until the light quickly flashes.

  3. In the Windows 8 Device Settings you click Add a device then the Wireless Controller will appear, just click on it to pair it.

  4. In the DS4Tool folder go in Virtual Bus Driver folder and install ScpDriver.exe (run as administrator).

  5. Finally go back to the root of DS4Tool folder and run ScpServer. Enjoy!

I used this one (and it's included software) on win7, and it works great. I'd say I'm 7-10 feet away?

u/alexnader · 2 pointsr/buildapc

I held off, I'm cheap like that, but regret not getting this for the past 6 months.

It seriously works as good as you could imagine, direct pairing, no weirdness, connects instantly. I even had some games cause issues with me connecting it by cable. Since switching to bluetooth, not a single fucking issue and some games even finally have all the buttons mapped out correctly.

Seriously get it !

Plus on some games I still use both: In Far Cry 4 I'll walk around a drive with the controller, then use to the mouse to aim, then go straight back, no disconnecting anything, they are both usable in the same breath.

u/omniscient_zero · 2 pointsr/WindowsMR

While I have seen people with tracking issues with internal BT adapters I haven't come across this issue yet. Have you tried uninstalling the drivers and letting WinUpdate reinstall them? If yes, have you tried the ones from Asus? If yes to that too, a slightly more retarded question. Are you holding down the little gray button inside the battery compartment until the lights on the ring start blinking? If yes, have you tried pairing from the Windows "Add Device" section in settings?

Edit: This is the BT adapter I use with the Odyssey and it works fine: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DJ83070/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

u/blackonred · 2 pointsr/RocketLeague

No need to worry about asking questions here. That's what this sub is for. Judging from your post, I believe you already know everything you need. As you said, turning on 144hz in the display properties is the one big thing you shouldn't miss. Make sure you don't limit your fps in the ingame graphics settings and check if you can get 144 fps ingame. Steam has a built in fps counter you can use for that. Your hardware should handle the game just fine, so I woulnd't worry about finetuning settings, unless there is a problem.

 

You can still use your PS4 controller on Pc if you didn't know. I believe you don't even need any extra software to run it in steam, though if you do run into some problems I would recomend getting DS4Windows. This software combined with a bluetooth dongle like this one even allows you to use it without any wire connection via bluetooth, though you might get some input lag.

 


Getting a 144hz monitor was one of the best purchases I did in the past years, so I'm sure you will be happy with yours, too.

u/mistrzuszabli · 2 pointsr/WindowsMR

> If your laptop has an internal bluetooth, we also recommend you to disable it and only use an external dongle. My personal setup also has a wireless keyboard/mouse with a separate receiver, and the two


I bought USB-BT400 and disabled internal bluetooth. Controllers work great now! Thanks! I also connected it as far as possible from my thunderbolt.


I'm glad I've asked around as I thought it's just how motion tracking works with headset driven tracking.

u/Santro12 · 2 pointsr/Skullcandy

Thanks for answering!
I asked skullcandy support through email about that and this is the answer. So as I saw before there is no any drivers from their website and it is entirely about drivers for the bluetooth adapter and here is a problem. I bought one on friday but it didn't work, and I couldn't find any drivers for that adapter either besides the ones that downloaded after plugging. About those 3 drivers that they suggested. Broadcom doesn't seem to work anymore as on their site it says that you can't download any software. Toshiba seems like it's for laptops because I couldn't get through the installation and Qualcomm looks dead.


So I feel like I need a right bluetooth adapter with right drivers for them to work, if someone has them and use them on PC with adapter, I would love to hear how they got them to work and which adapter they have and if they downloaded any drivers specifically for it or not. Thinking about buying that ASUS one but would love to hear any suggesting from the users first.

u/murphs33 · 2 pointsr/pcgaming

I have an an ASUS Bluetooth adapter similar to this one (I think it's the same one). And nope, no lag.

u/computix · 2 pointsr/techsupport

So, does a BT icon appear? Transmitter/receiver devices I've seen are for connecting analog audio devices through BT. If you want to connect a BT device to a (desktop) PC you should add a USB BT adapter. Like this for example, but many other similar devices exist.

u/Storm3ye · 2 pointsr/ffxiv

Have you tried any third party bluetooth receivers for wireless connection with DS4?

ASUS USB-BT400 USB Adapter

Its probably the best one to be used with DS4 with PC. It allows you to have 1ms connection between DS4 and PC (so essentially same as high polling rate wired connection).

u/iTriggz · 2 pointsr/buildapcsales

This one, and the controller(s) are probably fine, just the adapter has short range? Or do all bluetooth devices have low range?

u/b4ux1t3 · 2 pointsr/raspberry_pi

A good choice for controllers would be either some USB Super Nintendo controllers (they have more than enough buttons for most pre-N64 systems) or a Wiimote, which your friend might already have. There are a few good tutorials out there for getting Wiimotes to work over bluetooth, and I think this is the USB SNES controller my buddy got. (Alternatively, he could build his own)

u/Tommythecat42 · 2 pointsr/pcmasterrace

I have this one, https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Receiver-Keyboards-Controllers-USB-BT400/dp/B00DJ83070. I've had 2 ds4 controllers connected at once, and I'm pretty sure 4 would work.

u/NadoNate · 2 pointsr/SteamController

I've used an Asus BT-400 adapter to connect my DS4's. It's been solid for years, & only $12!

u/llamacek · 2 pointsr/OSVR

Really nice find! I'm assuming your computer is already bluetooth compatible?

If not, at least for me and others on the PSMoveService Google group, (Great place to ask questions and get help with troubleshooting) you have to have a bluetooth adapter to get the PSMove controllers to pair to your computer.

(I suggest this bluetooth adapter which is used by myself and others for the PSMove controllers)

(Don't forget that first time setup requires a micro USB cable for first time paring)

If so, just be aware that the Playstation Eye takes up a lot of USB bandwidth and you have to plan out where you plug in your devices very carefully for them to all track at the full 60fps.

I'd suggest downloading something like USBTreeView before starting as this will allow you to check your USB root hubs when plugging in your cameras and possibly bluetooth adapter.

Some things to keep in mind when setting this up are:

Try to isolate your cameras away from other high bandwidth devices on the same USB root hub, considering we're using an HMD with an IR camera that also takes up a lot of bandwidth so remember that too.

(This is what my USBTreeView looks like, make sure that your cameras are on USBs with the little H next to them meaning their high-speed.

("USB Composite Device - Camera" is the IR camera)

("ASUS USB-BT400" Is the bluetooth adapter)

"USB Composite Device - Audio, Camera" Is the Playstation Eye)

Most of the time the most cameras you'll be able to get away with are 2 cameras on one motherboard and the front panel USB connections included, unless you buy a PCI/PCI-E USB expansion card for more USBs and root hubs.

(PSMoveService reccomends the Inateck PCI-E to USB 3.0 5-Port

Most likely the controllers you bought were part of the older batches which were manufactured around 5-6 years ago when they first came out, so be sure to check the batteries and you can buy replacements here. (Although you have to open the controller up to access them)

Some of the newer controllers which were released with PSVR have their magnetometers disabled which are used for orientation in PSMoveService so be weary of that if their from the latest batch.

In conclusion, just follow videos like these (This and this) (You can just follow the PSMoveService portion of it) and for troubleshooting either resort to the comments of those videos, the offical Github documentation, post back here and I can try to help, or post in the Google group for help.

Aside from everything else good luck on setting it up and please excuse any grammatical errors you see in this post, it's over 3160 letters long.

u/moises_327 · 2 pointsr/buildapc

Windows 10 supports Bluetooth, but it doesn't necessarily come with it, in most cases you will need an adapter like this to be able to use it.

You can check if there's already an adapter on the Device Manager, looking at the USB ports to see if there's already an external one, or by looking at the motherboard specs to see if it has it.

Do you have a model number for the pre-built?

u/r-grijalva · 2 pointsr/linuxquestions

I use this one with SHB7150 Philips bluetooth headphones, they work OK. Check the guide on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_headset if you need to do some troubleshooting.

I just got this Asus dongle and it is working great with my Windows 7 PC. Connected right away, hasn't dropped out, and has decent range at my office.

I also remember reading something about Bluetooth power settings about a month back, might want to look into that as well.

u/monokhrome · 1 pointr/patientgamers

Are you using DS4Windows? I don't have any experience with DS4 controllers, but my DS3 works flawlessly on Windows 10 with SCPToolkit, which supports DS4 if I am not mistaken. I did run into an issue recently with my Gamecube Mayflash adapter when Windows 10 decided it was time for the Creators Update, but reinstalling the drivers resolved the issue I was having with Dolphin not recognizing the adapter.

My only complaint is limited range due to the bluetooth adapter I am using, which leads to blackouts / missed inputs if I exceed an 8-10ft range. If you're ever in the market for an adapter, I can say that the following works reliably, but the limited range leaves a lot to be desired.

My previous Mac was the same, so I researched it as well. The tool is available on this site and for you requires a dongle based on the Broadcom BCM20702 chip. The ones they recommend are below:

u/sk9592 · 1 pointr/buildapc

If I had to pick one, I would go with the Asus adaptor linked below since it's a well known company. It's also the most expensive adaptor though:

I personally own an older Kinivo Bluetooth 2.1 adaptor. It's worked fine for me, so I would assume the bluetooth 4.0 version will be fine as well:

u/LoneKrafayis · 1 pointr/buildapcforme

They should both be good cards, the 1660 Ti and Souper use much faster video memory. The Gigabyte you linked to is a 1660 plain card, with slower memory.

GTX 1660 Souper review


Did you consider the RX5700? It is considered the best deal in new video cards. You can see that it beats the 1660 Souper in most tests.

The lists have a really nice gaming monitor. Let me know if you have any questions

Micro ATX


It does not have Wifi/bluetooth. You can add an Asus USB bluetooth adapter.

For Bluetooth:

BT400

For WiFi:

There are some options here on this thread

I don't think you'll find a USB one with both WiFi/BT. If you feel like getting rid of one of your 980Ti's (preferably to me ;) ), then OSXWiFi makes great PCIe adapters

Good luck!

u/Sacredchilzz · 1 pointr/RocketLeague

I use ps4 controller on PC> you can play it plugged in OR if you have a bluetooth adapter.

or buy a bluetooth adapter I USE THIS ONE

Simple, if using bluetooth adapter -- plugin to USB. if using Windows 10. go to bluetooth settings. and set your controller on find mode(hold Share button + PS button until light starts flashing fast). connect to PC and done..

You can use DS4 on pc for extra features but it's not needed if you do not wish.

u/SkullLeader · 1 pointr/bose

Yes, these dongles exist, they're usually tiny too - like this one: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-USB-Adapter-Bluetooth-USB-BT400/dp/B00DJ83070/ref=sr_1_10?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1482950030&sr=1-10&keywords=bluetooth+adapter

No idea about PS4 compatibility. Main issues are if your work is just going to let you install hardware on your work computer and/or the necessary drivers for it, and also depending on your operating system it may not be possible to do what you want - i.e. its usually possible to play sound from the PC to a bluetooth speaker, but not always easy or possible to play sound from a bluetooth audio source and have it come through the PC's headphones or speakers.

Cool thanks a bunch!
I have looked around online as well as ask around a bit and after a bit of research it seems you definitely need a bluetooth 4.0 dongle. All the people I've read about that had working ones seemed to have that in common. That would explain why my cheap on from König did not work as it was 2.0 and why yours works perfectly.

I bought this one.
I'll post the results once I've given it a test run to see if my 4.0 theory is roughly correct.

It seems like you are getting some kind of interference like cordless phones??

u/jazetod · 1 pointr/techsupport

It sounds like the one you got is just having some issues. I would suggest this one from ASUS I have it myself and have had no issues with it. Amazon's customer support is usually pretty good you shouldn't have any issues returning it.

Edit: Side note I've had my phone, headphones, and too controllers connected to it all at once without any issues.

u/Preblegorillaman · 1 pointr/buildapcforme

Built in bluetooth is pretty rare, but bluetooth is super easy to add. If I were you I'd double check the compatibility with your devices, but you can probably use a USB stick like this:

If you set your options like this in DS3 tool it should work.

If you use Better DS3 tool (which is mentioned in that post you linked), if you create a new profile and select the XInput option, then autofill for Xbox 360 controls, it should work.

u/PM_ME_FUTA_PEACH · 1 pointr/MonsterHunterWorld

When you're looking for a bluetooth adapter, it'll say the version name either in name or in description. For example this one you can see it says " Bluetooth 4.0 USB Adapter ", that's what you want to look for.

u/riiskyy · 1 pointr/buildapcforme

This build will easily handle both of the games you listed at 1080p 60fps on high-ultra settings as well as any others for the next few years. Bluetooth USB dongles can be had on amazon for around $15. Tried to keep everything to the red and black theme.

If you wanted to save some money you could opt for a 120GB SSD instead however you will notice it fill up quite quickly once you install some programs etc on top of windows.

Well, I've sold hundreds of the ASUS USB-BT400 with no complaints so far. You could get some no-name one and save $5, but with the ASUS at least you'll be able to get support if you ever need it.

yes you can, I play 4 player co-op games on my pc all the time with friends (I use my old ps3 controllers). Also don't buy the Sony dongle since its $25 and only allows 1 controller per dongle. Just buy a Bluetooth 4.0 usb dongle and the free software will over ride the Bluetooth and allow wireless connections. One another note the new xbox 1s controller is now Bluetooth and requires no special software to work with pc use a run of the mill Bluetooth dongle. I use this Bluetooth adapater and its constantly on sale, great range as well.

Thank you for having a thread like this. I have done quite a bit of reading here, including a lot of the links and suggested polls on this subreddit and to be honest I am very overwhelmed.

Short version, here is what I need:

Tactile but not noisy, I want to feel the keys but I don't want a noisy typewriter. A little noise is ok.

Bluetooth, I ditched my desk about a year ago and won't go back, I use the computer from my LayzBoy arm chair with the keyboard in my lap, I no longer have a desk to run wires across.

Size need to be at least 75%, to full size (No 10key)... 60% is way too small for me. Weight doesn't really matter and neither does footprint, I wont be traveling with it.

Budget is a max of 160$ right now, and I prefer to purchase on Amazon.

I don't need fancy lights, I really just need something that works. When I am writing if I get too much input lag I don't always look at what I am writing for upto an hour, if the keyboard is crap I look up and find gibberish on the screen and loads of wasted time and creativity.

I originally purchased this keyboard, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FZVCH4H/ and this bluetooth dongle, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DJ83070/ and while it seemed like quality I just couldn't get it to work, everything connected but the keyboard wouldn't function. It was too small for me anyway, but I guess I got what I paid for at $44. I guess I will go with something 'name brand'?

Has to be simple setup, I am not an engineer or a programmer. Keyboard will be mostly used for writing, reddit, and light gaming like WoW.

I currently use a MS Wireless Comfort 5050 https://www.amazon.com//dp/B014W20C90/ keyboard/mouse combo, and the thing is junk, it has never worked right (Windows 8.1) spotty/odd input lag and most of the time it just stops working at all, It's going in the trash as soon as I replace it.

Thank you everyone for your help and guidance, I really appreciate it.

Hi, I'm currently experiencing an issue with a wireless controller where it randomly is unresponsive for a few seconds. I'm on Windows 10 and the Controller I have is the SteelSeries Stratus XL. The bluetooth adapter I am using for my PC is an Asus. I am using this controller for GTA 5 on Steam
