PS3 controllers on 7.2.2 and 8.0 issue

[Kentril 0]

Hi everyone, I spent 2 days experimenting with 2 PS3 controllers connecting via Bluetooth. Somehow I was able to connect one, but after connecting the other I was unable to connect the first one. Even on fresh burn 32GB image from Wolfanoz. I tried everything.

I looked through these threads:

I have RaPi 4
and PS3 controllers:

Tomorrow I will try Emulation station 1TB from Wolfanoz - I think it was working there.

If you have any idea please let me know or at least try to post a controller version that is 100% compatible - I will order from eBay or 2nd hand.

Thank you
