How do I remap the controls of a DirectInput controller? I'm trying to configure my USB Sega Saturn controller but the normal option in Big Picture mode seems to be removed.
[QUOTE=Combine 177;52413878]I am going to recommend trying doing the most basic trick, running as administrator, it has done the trick for me at least ever since I started having problems with launching Steam.[/QUOTE]
I thought i would somehow fix the issue when it was running only for ten minutes before crashing.

Pretty sure the only directinput device that works is the PS4 controller. All Xinput controllers work though.
Does steam not let you buy bundles as gifts anymore? What's up with that?

I had a super cheap DirectInput controller work
[QUOTE=Scratch.;52413668]I, and some of my friends have had a number of issues regarding steam starting up recently.
A common factor we have is that we run windows 10
Steam will say it can't connect (and does after a retry)
or it's stuck on the connecting as %username%
and even... this, on this screen for twenty minutes maybe

anyone else had these issues?
just getting some data[/QUOTE]
Fixed it,
running steam with [b]-dev[/b] (previously -developer) has a 100% rate not properly finishing the login process.
The account will login, set steamID and all, but not progress to the steam client window. but that's if steam had an update. It will also update games in the background.
If there's no steam update, it will just crash.
removing the dev parameter allows the client to run properly, this would be why stream browser protocols work fine, since they launch steam without developer params
So apparently you get a badge on your profile if you get all the stickers
Well, right now, i can't launch steam at all, like it crash everytime it get to the client menu and then, steamerrorreporter.exe show up on the task manager.
I tried the
-Steam in Admin
-Steam Win 7/8 compatibility
-Steam dev mode
But none of them work anymore.
Edit: Got it working by going offline and then installing the beta update !

If you upload an archive of the logs folder in your Steam directory, I could take a quick look at it. The next time it crashes, write down the exact time from your machine's clock. But because the logs probably contain some form of sensitive information, make sure to delete the old ones, and let fresh ones generate with a dummy steam account first. Also, as recommended above a steam reinstall might be a good idea, might just fix the problem.
So I bought a Steam Link because thanks to a longstanding russian Valve partner, official distribution of Steam accessories have the same sales applied, so, it was 70% off.
I didn't really need one, because I had a great thing going with my Linux HTPC as a streaming client, but I did have some issues that I thought Steam Link would resolve.
I have to say, I'm [B]really[/B] disappointed. The Steam Link performs the same way my HTPC would, sometimes worse. My HTPC is running an AMD A6 APU (Richland), no GPU, VDPAU (hardware video decoding) works and I'm running Ubuntu with quite a lot of services running in the background (it's like a home media server). With this setup I had around 20-38ms of delay and some compression artifacts like extreme [url=https://i.imgur.com/n6ap0Lg.jpg]color banding[/url] in gradients (actually, it's in the game itself, but encoding/decoding it into a video only makes it worse). With the Steam Link the delay is always at least 2ms bigger and the color banding is still there.
The Link is connected using gigabit ethernet, just as the HTPC.
I know it's an ARM chip and all that, but I kind of expected a system built specifically to decode video to, you know, decode video better.
P.S: Also, I'm pretty sure there's no way to enable full range RGB, and when I'm looking at my native monitor, I can see that server's range is still full, so the Link is just clipping the existing signal? What the fuck?
[B]EDIT:[/B] Just tried testing GTA 5 benchmark (the encodes will be basically the same, so no margin of error here) 18-22ms with Steam Link, 8-21ms with my HTPC (mostly around 14ms)
I can’t believe Valve used Steam-tier quality assurance on a hardware product.
Some slides from a recent Valve presentation:

Hopefully that mockup of a new UI months ago wasn't just an effort of like three guys that never led to anything and they're really completely overhauling Steam's UI and not just more "look we made it blue and moved some shit around"

From what we've seen leak through in betas so far is that there's pointers it'll be based on web technologies (like Big Picture, but even closer to the web). It uses some Chromium stuff in functions that leaked through already. Nothing interesting yet, though.

We're both well aware that steam's interface relies a lot already on a embedded chromium framework. Panorama really is interesting. And easy to hack

Since it's all just css stored locally, making changes to override is about as simple as it is with modern web extensions that do the same thing. Of which current steam skin developers are doing with steam's webkit
I hope this simple macro I made will help getting rid of all the crap in my recommendations.

I'm not entirely sure I understand the point of this. Can't you just ignore the recommended section in the store page? It's still going to show up, even when empty, right?
Yeah, you're right. I'm just a bit angry Valve won't let us users see what we want (allowing more tags to filter out would be a start). I heard they are currently reworking the discovery system but it I'm sure it will be quantity over quality again. I mostly stopped hoarding mediocre games through buying bundles and try to focus on the games which I will actually play. Steam could help in this regard if it didn't decide to stand in my way and shove shit in my face. This caused me to lose interest in buying new games completely.
I thought your macro was a way of clicking it faster, but you're still looking at the few that aren't garbage. Because there's a userscript that blows through the whole discovery queue in a few seconds.

Is anyone else here completely unable to open Steam?
Every time I try, it flashes the "updating" window, then freezes at "Connecting Steam account". This just started happening yesterday.
[editline]16th July 2017[/editline]
I've tried restarting my computer, running Steam as administrator, and attempting to make it open in offline mode. Haven't tried re-installing Steam yet but going off of what I've read on the steam help & tips forum, that won't help either.

Are you running steam with -dev or other parameters? According to Scratch -dev was causing it.

Where exactly do I go to find these parameters?
[editline]16th July 2017[/editline]
Okay, wow, nevermind, i found a fix that worked. That was suprisingly simple.
All I had to do was rename the "sourcemods" folder to "sourcemod".
Whats with the steam groups as of recent? I had to report and block like 5 bots spammng me with invites to fake csgo raffle groups for like 3-4 days straight, and it doesn't seem like its about to end

You are probably in some big CSGO group.

Steam beta also seems to have some fixes I think
[QUOTE=Starscre4M;52475635]You are probably in some big CSGO group.[/QUOTE]
the thing is... I am not... I think. Hell, I haven't have played CSGO in few months.
today I had to block another two.. eugh
I have a bit weird "problem" for almost a month.
In detailed view the DLC grid always showed me a store image of last bought DLC.
But now it looks like this for ~4s
[IMG]https://my.mixtape.moe/euqywy.png[/IMG]
and then goes to this
[IMG]https://my.mixtape.moe/fefqtk.png[/IMG]
Funny thing is it actually shows me the image for a split second.
