Please add joystick support for push-to-talk

[DanielCeregatti]

Hi,

I thought I had posted this once before but I couldn't find any posts requesting this feature. I use a foot pedal as my PTT and it shows up as a "direct input" (joystick) device in windows, and a regular joystick in Linux. It's supported in every voice comm program out there (vent, TS, mumble, discord...but not curse) for PTT.

I know there's a program out there that can map joystick events to keyboard buttons, but I've found that this causes problems in the games I'm playing while streaming. I've never been able to get it to work properly. Hence my request for this feature.

Thank you for your attention.

What you're looking for is called XInput support. It's not on the roadmap, so I can't say when it'll be put in, but it is on the "to be added" list.

Thanks for the quick response. I'm going to look into what it'll take to get this added on my own. You may or may not see a pull request some time soon!
