Controller is always disconnecting randomly when using Bluetooth.

See original GitHub issue

Log: DS4Windows Error 1167.txt

I get this Error 1167 every time I play using Bluetooth. I’m forced to always play through USB connection because of this. The error doesn’t occur if I turn off Enable Output data to DS4, so I know it’s not a problem with my Bluetooth connection. I had this problem with version 2.1.3 as well, but I didn’t try other versions before that.

@Newtype14 The BlueYeti device is shown as “gamepad” only in debug version because the debug version tries to use all devices with usageFlag=0x05 value. The vanilla version doesn’t try to use it as gamepad because the VID/PID is not registered as DS4 gamepad.

Do you still have those old ScpToolkit/ScarletCrush drivers installed? Those are known to cause problems in BT connections when some other “driver” tries to use the same BT host with gamepads. ScpTookit and ScarletCrush drivers hijack the BT stack and does all kind of nasty tricks (not recommended by Windows kernel driver docs).

Uninstall and traces of those old Scp drivers and apps (ie. literally remove those drivers using DriveStore Explorer app even when you no longer have apps using those drivers). https://forums.vigem.org/topic/250/scptoolkit-removal-guide
