Well I've got Win11 to work on one PCP! But it was an arduous journey and I still can't get it to work on the other PCP. :-( To be fair I've had similar symptoms with Win10 but on a different laptop so I can't completely blame Win11.
It's working on a rPi 4B and piCorePlayer v8.2.0 | www v00017 | linux 5.15.35-pcpCore-v7l (32) | piCore v13.2 | Squeezelite v1.9.9-1392-pCP. It's not working thus far on a 3B+ and the same PCP s/w. It seems that keeping PCP's "Discoverable" = Yes helps. Also the behaviour seems random after the Windows scans for BT devices and tries to pair. Sometimes it pairs and allows one to connect, other times Windows says after a delay that the other device "would like to pair to this Windows device"! Sometimes devices take ages to appear in the Windows BT scan list, sometimes not. Another gotcha was that the PCP "Paired Devices" entry somehow changed from Type = Player to Speaker. I think the symptom of this was that the PC's paired device connected and then disconnected immediately afterwards. I've no idea how that config change happpened but I certainly didn't change it. I've seen that twice now on different PCPs but can't reproduce it. Once I changed that back to Type = Player it remained connected. Another issue appears to be signal strength. Both laptops and PCPs seem to be quite different in this. I suspect my PCP's metal case doesn't exactly help in this regard. I might try one of the USB dongles that others report as working e.g. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maxesla-Bluetooth-Wireless-Transmitter-Controller/dp/B0126XU9CM/ref=sr_1_16?dchild=1&keywords=Maxesla&qid=1626034484&sr=8-16 Maybe a wizard to step through might help eradicate issues and make sure every value is set correctly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mr-b's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10044 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114834 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
