Remote Play complains about "low controller battery", and sometimes DualShock4-Emulator closes on its own, at which point Remote Play tells me to "charge my controller" before continuing.

I've tested with a Generic (Logitech) Gamepad with a wireless USB dongle, and a Steam Controller on the wireless USB dongle, Bluetooth and fully wired using microUSB, with and without batteries inside the controller. Steam Controller reports its charge correctly through Bluetooth and Steam(using the wireless dongle), and the Generic Gamepad doesn't report its charge at all, but it seems like this is disregarded anyways, as in both cases Remote Play claims the same thing.

Please look into it, as the warning is a bit annoying. Thank you for your work.

Hi, I'm using the Vigem driver to run the program, there doesn't seem to be any battery information, but I'll try to look it up.

Hello, thank you for looking into the issue! Unfortunately, the behavior is exactly the same as in version 1.7.7.
Immediately upon connecting, there is no battery bar nor warning anywhere. However, after a few frames, a battery icon appears, although it's shown as full. After a single frame, the low battery warning appears and the icon instantly swaps to the low battery one.

I have recorded it happening, the battery icon appears in the bottom right corner and the warning is in the top middle:

Maybe that will work?

Issue persists, sadly. I also tried to use the "ActivateInAnyWindow=1" option, thinking the bad battery reading was because of Sony changing PS4 Remote Play to just PS Remote Play, but the same thing happened.(Using keyboard and mouse)
