Able to play on Ps5 using DS4?
« on: December 06, 2020, 07:41:07 PM »
Hello, I recently bought this product, and it is quite good.
I also own a Xim Apex.

Right now, we are able to use the xim Apex on the Xb0x series X, and the Ps5 (using a work around).

On the ps5,we can play ps4 games by connecting the xim apex to the ps5 using the DS4 controller.

To play ps5 games using the new ps5 controller, You will need to connect the xim to your pc, then  use remote play, and that way you can play ps5 games.

But this is not the case with the S1.

Is it possible to get an update for the S1 so we can use the ds4 to play ps4 games on our Ps5?

Note...: I'm currently running the latest beta firmware that has xbox S/X support

But with a DS4(Pro or Slim), ReaSnow S1 can do exactly the same on PS5 as our competitors.

But in my situation, the S1 doesnt even come on when connected to my Ps5. I have communication method set to USB.

It works perfectly on my Xbox series X.

Update: The S1 is working with my ps5 using the Ds4 controller to play ps4 games.

All I had to do was connect the S1 to the USB ports at the back.
It doesn't even come on when I plug it into the front port.

thanks for sharing your experience!

yes, we did get some reports on the front USB port,
all are solved by connecting ReaSnow S1 to the back USB ports.

and currently, we thought the front USB port might be a bit different from the back ones,
and this issue exists only on some first batch PS5s.

for most of the other PS5s, the front USB port is OK to be used with our products.
