Gamepad not recognised

Hello. I’m following this course and connected my bluetooth gamepad (an 8bitdo SN30 Pro, but I tried with another one too) and followed all instructions in the video, but when I output the horizontal throw in the console, it remains at 0. When I use the keyboard though, it works and I can go from -1 to 1.
Is there something I missed to activate my gamepad in Unity? I test it in in a game and it works.
Should I use the new Input System Package instead, like Unity is suggesting?

Hi Guillaume,

Maybe Unity does not support your gamepad. I’d suggest to close Unity, unplug your gamepad, plug it in again and start Unity again. Restarting after step 2 might also be an idea.
