Gyro support

[tapafon]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Gyro in DualShock 4 works while directly connected to PC (both wired & Bluetooth). But it doesn't work in IHSplay, as well as in official Steam Link app (Android 12).

Describe the solution you'd like
Gyro via IHSplay should simply work (if enabled in Steam Input or game itself).

Describe alternatives you've considered
Sending gyro input to emulate right stick or mouse.

On next release gyro and touchpad support might be added. But there's a catch, because SDL2 webOS shipped is not up-to-date.

Gamepad gyro & touchpad support is available from SDL 2.0.14, but it only available on webOS 7+, and currently no way to backport.

Even on rooted WebOS 4.x, which my TV has?

@tapafon It doesn't matter if it's rooted or not. But I didn't give up on that, there is another way for the app to control gamepads directly without SDL, which might be added in the future.

No. It's pretty complicated so it needs more time.

what about with sunshine + moonlight? Is that any easier since sunshine already implemented it but not the moonlight-tv itself

@AE-GM Gyro and SDL touchpad support is steam link built-in. It's not IHSplay can't send the event, but on webOS you can't receive gyro input without a ton of extra work.
