[PS4] WaitForSingleObject Failed: timeout expired

Hi,

my pastebin: http://pastebin.com/7hNR97kN

First of all, I am aware the PL2303 is not officially supported. I am waiting on the delivery of a CP2102 but it could be a while before I will get them (china shipping and stuff :) ).
Since I saw a few people saying that they got it working using the PL2303 and I had one laying around I thought I would give it a try.

I first tested the serial adapter by using the method described in the FAQ (arduino IDE) and I receive the messages.
On the Teensy I have loaded the 4.3 EMUPS4 atmega32u4.hex firmware and have connected the TX to D2 and the RX to D3 and GND to GND.
Also connected a PS4 controller via USB to pc and replaced the usb driver with the libusbk using zandig.

However, no mather what I do, I always get the following message when trying to run GIMX:


C:\Program Files\GIMX>gimx -p COM3 -c Dualshock4.xml
option -p with value `COM3'
option -c with value `Dualshock4.xml'
WaitForSingleObject failed: timeout expired.
can't read packet header
No controller detected.
connector_init failed

Since PL2303 isn't supported I would totally understand it if this would get closed, but any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Christof

Hi,
The PL2303 is not 5V tolerant and it can't operate at 500kbps.
