I didn't have to rush out, I just did it sitting on my butt on my computer. Ah the dangers of online impulse buying, you sounded pretty definitive and I was eager. ? But I've requested a refund and I'll sit tight for the moment and hope someone can enlighten me about this.

You told me above I needed this application to solve my problem? Just looking for some help here, folks. If I start streaming through SL, start VirtualHere through SL, then start Big Box, I still don't get any controller input. I've enabled VirtualHere for my controllers through the Steam Link settings and it still doesn't seem to do anything.

OK, just paid $13.99 for VirtualHere on Steam. If it's running, the Steam Link now believes that there is a "game in progress" on my computer, so when I start streaming from SL I get my desktop mirrored and it's difficult/impossible to start anything else. Obviously I am missing something about how to use this?

I see. Is this a relatively recent problem? I was watching this guide video from ETA Prime where he makes it sound like the Xbox One controller works smoothly with no reference to Virtual Here. I'm still puzzled by why it would work initially and then stop. I can't think of any setting I would have changed that would make a difference. Should I reinstall LB/BB from scratch just to see?

I know there have been many past threads about issues like this, and I think I have read them all, but I haven't found a solution. I have Big Box added to Steam as a non-Steam game/shortcut. I can launch Big Box through my Steam Link just fine. However, once Big Box has started, my controllers (Xbox One controller connected to the SL via Bluetooth or Xbox 360 controller with official Microsoft wireless adapter) are not recognized by Big Box for input. I should note that if I start Big Box on my PC in Big Picture mode (rather than through the Steam Link), the controller works. It's only when BB is started through SL that it stops recognizing the controller. The really frustrating part was that it DID work when I first installed Big Box last night and then stopped for no reason I can discern. Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can provide.
