pl Ogólnie mówiąc, jest to dobrze zrobione rozszerzenie i zwiększa przyjemność czytania zawartości stron internetowych dzięki obsłudze kontrolera do gier. Niestety, powoduje konflikt z aplikacją Dokumenty Google. Podczas otwierania plików tekstowych wyskakuje błąd STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION, przez co plik się nie otwiera. Gdy już uda się otworzyć plik, okazuje się, że nie reaguje na klawiaturę. Dlatego ode mnie ocena 4/5. Być może to nie wina tego rozszerzenia, tylko aplikacji Dokumenty, nie znam się na tym.

en It does work, if it could also work when the browser is not focused it would be fantastic!

en works! I think the problem with those who say it doesn't has to do with seeing what is being selected. Make sure you set "Fix Focus" on in the set up. I really wish I could control individual letter keys with particular bottoms, and maybe I can but just don't know how to set it up. That leads me to my critiques: setup is arcane, customization is... there, and now my page is drifting down for no reason. Nonetheless, I was looking for someway to use a controller for youtube vids (for language learning) and it's mostly working. if you think this is going to be plug and play, you deluded. But if you fiddle with it it well work.

Does not work at all. Can't even detect my controller plugged in via USB. Absolute garbage.

I love this project, it would be much more robust if we could set our own custom keybinds rather than using preset custom keybinds. I tried to alter the github in a forked project to acheive this goal but havent worked out how to accomplish this yet
