BT pairing issue.

Hello,

Just installed LibreELEC release: Generic.x86_64-9.97.1 on a IntelNuc10i7. previously i was running some nightly rel from 9.2. Last week i decided to reinstall the latest official rel. Everything went smooth except for this strange issue with my BT keyboard. Every time i pair it from the libreelec gui i get a prompt with the pairing code, problem there are no numbers just a little square bottom left.

Intel nuc is the lasts bios rel. Strange thing had no problem at all with previous version pairing always been super straight forward.

any idea?

thanks for the help!

I'm not sure what the cause/problem is but I've seen this at some point recently too. You can SSH into the box and use "bluetoothctl" to perform the pairing as a workaround. Same basic process (as the settings add-on drives the same API) but no GUI to go wrong.
