Checklist

I have searched for a similar issue in this repository and did not find one.
I am using an official build obtained from releases or updated one of those builds using its in-app updater.

Describe the Bug

I am currently using a dualshock 4 controller (PS4) and I am having input lag / input delay. I used both with DS4windows and without it, and the lag is still there. I have tried using the controller both wireless and with wire. I know that it isn't my controller's problem because it works perfectly normally on steam. I also have steam fully closed when I am using the ShadPS4. The input lag / input delay is < 0.5 seconds, which matters when playing games like Bloodborne. The game runs at a smooth 60FPS so it isn't a performance issue.

Reproduction Steps

N/A

Expected Behavior

Work with minimal input delay (unnoticeable)

Specify OS Version

Windows 11
