Hi, I just started using this project. With Gamescope enabled, I've got it running very well and is the best game streaming I've ever used.

The problem however is I notice extreme latency with my Xbox Elite 2 Controller. I don't have exact numbers but it feels like at least 10ms. It's unplayable.

This latency exists regardless of it running under localhost (Flatpak) or LAN (Apple TV and iPhone), or USB or Bluetooth.

This is the only controller I have so I can't say whether it's just this specific type of controller or if it's more generic.

Does anyone have any idea on why I could be experiencing high latency using wolf?

The server is using Fedora and Nvidia.

Thank you in advance for any responses, and thanks to the community for providing this project.

I have the same issue with Xbox One Series X/S Controller over Bluetooth to my Nvidia Shield, seems to get worse the longer I play. I also have USB set to compatibility mode to avoid USB 3.0 interference.
