Hi folks,
lately I wanted to listen to some music while trimming the grass in my garden. I know, it's silly, but I am sick, so... let me do it ;-)
I wanted to connect a "4smarts" BT device to moOde (it can be switched to work as either a sender or a receiver; I'd use it as a receiver/sink, plugging ordinary 3.5mm-jack headphones to it)
1. enable BT in Settings => System => Startup options => Bluetooth, then reboot as suggested
2. enable both Controller and Pairing agent (in this order) in Settings => Renderers => Bluetooth
3. go through the discover => pair => connect process
At this point I can see the device, I can pair it (then it becomes trusted I think, cannot remember all the details), but when I try to connect it, it fails.
I tried it 3/4 times, then it was late at night so I just gave up...
What / where do I look for in the logs (have I better enable verbosity also?) to try to get the little bastard to work, or at least understand why it refuses to?
(of course, before you ask, it is configured to be a sink... and yes, I was successful in connecting it to my Linux Mint box, in both configurations)
One thing maybe worth mentioning, it is a BT 5.0 device, and can offer both low and high quality connections, such as might be relevant for using it at "hi-fi" or "speakerphone/handsfree" level.
