  • Bluetooth controller issues 3 chipsets 3 devices tested

    My bluetooth controller isnt working with libreelec on the rockpro64 rk3399. I have tried 3 different chipsets rtl8761bu rtl8821cu and the broadcom BCM20702A0 I'm getting the same behavior across all 3 chipsets. Im starting to think it's not the bluetooth or the controller, but something to do with inputs to the menus in kodi itself.

    The controller does the same things, pairs connects and identifies in all 4 modes. I can see the hci traffic with btmon just fine. The only one that looks to be having issues is the sony profile on the controller. Sometimes however, when I pair the controller, the session crashes to tty until I reboot. That particular crash has persisted across mutliple SD cards and EMMC cards, does not happen with anything else. Its something specific to libreelec and not kodi. It does not happen with kodi on coreelec. Controller tested working with all chipsets in all modes on my arch desktop.

    I also tested with a bluetooth mouse, and a bluetooth speaker, which seem to work, so this is controller input related and specifically on libreelec

  • Rock Pi 4 C+ Kodi 11.0 Wi-Fi and Bluetooth not working

    I ran into this as well

    Its the same behavior on two different bt modules

    One has an issue in taht its a 8821cu, which loads the 8821c firmware which half works. The wifi may or may not work, but the bluetooth seems semi-stable with the wrong firmware. I've seen this issue on at least half a dozen distros though.

    The other is an 8761bu.

    It both cases the bluetooth pairs and correctly identifies the controller in dmesg.
    btmon shows the controller inputs are making it across, but I cant actually control anything iwth the controller, its like the inputs are beind disregarded.

    I have 4 different modes on the controller and they all pair and identify correctly, but I cant actually control anything
