I want to use my deck as a console in my living room, and to do this I need to be able to wake it up from my controller. The closest I’ve seen someone do it online is here, but it uses the dangle which I don’t have. There was also this tutorial on the same post for PS controllers via Bluetooth but it seems messy and tedious (I have to manually enable each device to test whether it is the controller or not). Is there a way to do this or do I have to get up from the couch each time I want to wake my deck up?
If you have Ethernet to the dock, you can use wake-on-lan to wake the deck up from your phone, and then connect the controller.
If you have an adapter for the xbox controller, it should be a pretty simple setup.
If you haven’t, it doesn’t look like bluetooth is a fully working option.
The adapter discussed, specifically its the second version that works (8bitdo adapter 2). It’s priced at 20$/£12
I would really like to see the Bluetooth option work someday.
The problem is that the dongle I am using to connect the deck to my TV doesn’t have a USB port
Then you probably need a dock, too.
