Since v17, the [[Advancedsettings.xml#controllerdeadzone|<controllerdeadzone>]] advanced settings has been removed. Deadzones can now be configured by plugging in the controller and selecting in at Settings -> System settings -> Input -> Peripherals.
Since Kodi v17 (Krypton), Kodi now features an entirely new controller support system. Basic configuration can now be done from within the Kodi interface, without leaving the Kodi GUI.
 
Currently, you can only configure the physical layout of your controller in Kodi. If you want to modify the actions that each button performs, see [[HOW-TO:Modify joystick.xml]].
 
Kodi v17.0 has a bug where analog sticks can get "stuck" when they are first moved. This is fixed in v17.1. If this happens to you, see [[HOW-TO:Fix stuck analog sticks on v17.0]].
