Creating a controller playlist.


JereBear

Recommended Posts

Hey! 
My kid wants to use BB to play his Steam games on their tv. We need to get a playlist created that includes only games from his Steam Library that have controller support. Is there any easy way to do this? 
I feel like it should be possible but I cannot figure it out. 
Thanks

Create an auto-populated playlist with the filters set up to look like:

Controller Support - Fully Supports - Gamepad

That sort of works. Maybe LB not pull in the controller support metadata from steam?
When I sort in Steam by controller supported I get 461 games. 
When I do a playlist in LB like you suggest it only comes up with 176 games.

We've had some reported issues of Steam controller data not always coming in correctly but I haven't had a chance to look into. They probably changed something in their API return that we need to compensate for. You can edit the games (or bulk edit) them to add the information in the meantime. It's definitely more manual and time consuming than we'd like, but gives you a work around while you wait for a fix.
