Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 3.5.0

2020-05-14 Thread byKnight


I see plenty there's been a maturing capability to stream Bluetooth
audio *from* the piCorePlayer. But I would love the ability to stream
Bluetooth *to* the piCorePlayer from my phone.

I have several piCorePlayers in my home, and I'm adding one to the back
yard, wired to a couple of self-powered speakers. I would love the
ability to occasionally pair my phone to the piCorePlayer and stream
audio from my phone through the piCorePlayer.

Any chance this could be added to piCorePlayer?



Really, it was like that when I got here.

Thanks! I didn't realize that. 

Running pCP 6 on a RPi3B+, I've the enabled the onboard Bluetooth,
installed and started up the pCP Bluetooth support, and enabled Streamer
for Audio Input under Tweaks.

I set the pCP to be discoverable on the Bluetooth page. I paired my
phone with it. Both the phone and the Bluetooth page on the pCP indicate
they're successfully paired.

But nothing I play on my phone can be heard through the pCP.

Oh, I will definitely drop some more in the tip jar when that becomes
available! :)

Tried that. Still no sound.

But I did find while searching through the threads here find reference
to a pCP Patch Update. Applied that. 

Now I've got my phone streaming directly to the player without having to
use the stream in LMS. Cool!
