I just wanted to make a remote control out of my gamepad, but for some reason it doesn't work correctly in some video players, and keyboard testing websites show that the 4862 keys are being pressed instead of the regular arrow keys. I also can't find documentation for all the keys in the input library.
from inputs import devices
from inputs import get_gamepad
import keyboard
left = 0
right = 0
up = 0
down = 0

while 1:
events = get_gamepad()
for event in events:
print(event.ev_type, event.code, event.state)
if event.ev_type == 'Absolute' and event.state == -1 and event.code == 'ABS_HAT0X' and left == 0:
keyboard.press('left arrow')
left = 1
if event.ev_type == 'Absolute' and event.state == 0 and event.code == 'ABS_HAT0X' and left == 1:
keyboard.release('left arrow')
left = 0

keyboard.press('right')
