Switch input between Controllers
Garikoitz Cordón
Parsec has an option to reset the controllers, so that after people press a button on the controller, Parsec detects it.
If we are 4 person for example, using a hotkey we could send the order to Parsec to reset the controls and then people could be pressing the button of the controller, in the order in which they want to be the players of the game.
If there was a graphical interface where we could see the controller icon and the icon of each parsec user while each one is pressing the button so that the command will be detected, it would be incredible. This would solve the problem of managing players for any emulator / PC game etc.
I have a group of 4 people where we play many fighting games together and this would help us enormously to go changing the controls to when we lose the combats

Garikoitz Cordón: is this the best way that you know of to hotseat a controller too? I am looking for how to allow two players to control the same controller through parsec for turn based games and this sounds like a decent option.

I was looking for a tool to do what you propose, so it's only natural that I'm upvote the subject.

This is exactly what I want from this program. First of all I think it would be great to have an easy way to "hand off" the controller to a friend like you would in real-life or on PS4 SharePlay. But it would also help because I recently ran into a glitch where a virtual Xbox controller was still connected as Player 1 after I ended a Parsec session, so I couldn't use my real gamepad for anything until I reset my computer.

also it would be useful to share a controller too

Essentially setting which player belongs to which controller.
