RPI 4 Bluetooth & "now playing"

  • Hi all,

    now I've a mobile media center with 1 Rpi4, 2 SSD (and another nerd option.. :) ).

    RPI actual is connected to my car entertainment system by Bluetooth...

    I'm looking a way to see "now playing" information on car display (like a connection with my android phone)

    there is a solution with LE (or another tricks?)

    TNKs in advance...

    Ciao

  • Is LE or the head-unit the playback device? (where is media read, what is controlling playback) .. What's the OS/capabilities of the (factory, aftermarket?) head unit in the car?

    Hi,

    The situation is:

    First: usb SSD --> LE rpi4 usb --> Bluetooth dongle ---> (only audio) --->car entrainment

    Second: internet --> android phone --> Bluetooth --> car entrainment

    in both situation car entrainment is like a Bluetooth speaker.

    but.. if I use a android phone on the car display I can se: Title, artist, cover, remaining time, etc... (now playng information)

    I like to see all information even with LE.
