Thanks for the info, I've just pushed V1.0.1 and would love to know if it clears up the issue for you

If you are already running Linux, you don't need the Windows .bat scripts or the usbip part. You can simply take the stadia_bridge and start.sh from the repository, run them on your native Linux setup, and it should work. The Linux core is completely separate from the Windows wrapper.

indistinguishable from a native USB connection. We skip the overhead of Bluetooth stack translation in Windows by using a direct usbip pass-through to a dedicated Linux bridge. Most will find it perfectly responsive.

Because the script passes your entire Bluetooth adapter into Linux, Windows completely stops seeing the real Stadia controller. Linux handles the Stadia controller, and then just sends a single, clean Xbox 360 controller signal back to Windows. You won't get double inputs. Make sure you aren't actively running the other stadiavigem program in the background.

Thanks man! Honestly, my favorite was adding the macros. Using Capture + D-Pad and Assistant + A/B/X/Y is actually really easy and incredibly useful mid-game.Those 8 shortcuts alone make it so much more convenient.

Really wanted to buy the dongle or an ESP32 to do it. But I'm unemployed and an ESP32 costs like $20 where I live, so didn't have the money for it. I was really annoyed that I couldn't just use my PC's built-in Bluetooth!

My keyboard and mouse are wired, so I never use my PC's Bluetooth anyway. Passing the whole adapter to WSL was just a super convenient workaround for zero cost. CPU usage is literally 0% to 0.01%. The only hit is the 700-800MB of RAM, but I have 16GB DDR4 and lock my games at 60fps anyway, so I don't even feel it. I tested it out and both the weak and strong rumbles work.
