I don't know where I can report a bug, so I post here, I guess.
Basically, the Xbox One controller support on Windows 10 is bugged. In the Kodi menu, the app will scroll very quickly from one side to another, which is uncontrollable and requires me to disconnect the controller to take control again.
I tried a fix which involved uninstalling the Xbox One controller driver which comes preinstalled with Windows 10 (labeled just "Xbox Controller"), downloading the official driver package from Microsoft website, installing it and selecting a different one from the list in Device Manager labeled "Microsoft Xbox One Controller". It fixes Kodi but breaks other apps including Steam BPM, so it's effectively useless.
How can this be fixed? Games I've tested work just fine, so it's a Kodi issue. It works flawless with the Xbox 360 controller, too.
I'm running latest Isengard RC2.
EDIT: I've done a search and it seems other people have already reported this a while ago... Why hasn't there been a dev reply commenting on the issue yet? It's frustrating because I bought an Xbox One controller in anticipation for the release of the wireless dongle and, with the addition of Controller Companion app to control the Windows desktop with the controller and virtual keyboard support in older games, the Xbox One controller could be the perfect remote for a Windows 10 machine.
