Hi,

I'm still trying to have the sound of my Nintendo Switch trough my HiFiBerry Amp2 : Bluetooth audio receiver with HiFiBerry AMP2 + RPi4 + Nintendo Switch

This time, I'm trying with an USB Sound Card, the Sound Blaster PLAY! 3, but I have no idea how to tell LibreElec to route the analog input of the usb card to the audio ouput ( the AMP2) .

The usb card is well recognized :

Code

ViELEC:~ # aplay -l

Hi !

I'm trying to use a HifiBerry AMP2 with a Nintendo Switch trough a Rapsberry Pi 4 that's working on LibreElec.

I followed this topic, and I got my computer and smartphone to connect via bluetooth to LibreElec.

Thread

LibreELEC Kodi as a BLuetooth audio receiver??

I can connected my Raspberry Pi 3B+ to bluetooth devices like a keyboard, Harmony Smart Hub remote, and my Android Smartphone. But I have not figured out how to get my smartphone to play music and have the RP3B+ receive that and send it to the speaker system I have connected to the RP3B+ via 3.5mm audio out jack.

Is that possible and if so, how do I configure it?

But, when I try to connect my Nintendo Switch, it doesn't appears in the Bluetooth menu in the LibreElec settings.

I tried to add it by the CLI, with several commands

Code

discoverable on
advertise on
trust xxx
pair xxx
connect xxx

I got to see the LibreElec device onto the Switch but in the end I also got an error :

Code

[CHG] Device xxx Connected: yes
[CHG] Device xxx Connected: no

[bluetooth]# connect xxx

Attempting to connect to xxx
Failed to connect: org.bluez.Error.Failed br-connection-refused

Any advice to make it work ?

Thanks for your help and the good work on LibreElec

Am I the only one with this issue ?

Hi !

I'm having the same problem with the latest build from Kodi 18 and Multimedia Tools 9.0.108 :

LibreELEC Testbuilds for RaspberryPi (Kodi 18.0)

Any solutions ?

Thanks !

I'm running a v8.1.6 still on mine on the internal memory, what's the easiest way to update to the newest version.

I guess it's the same method, check the FAQ : [HOWTO + FAQ] Install community builds on S905/S905X/S912 device

Quote from Forage

No Android is needed, nor used, to run LibreELEC. The complete Linux based OS is on the SD card.

I know it's running on the SD Card, but some installation starts directly on a sd card if present and there is some option to reboot from one to another.

Hello !

I've got a Beelink GT1.

Which version of Android do you recommend to be running with LibreElec ? That by default will be running LibreElec if the sd card is inserted.

Thanks for your good work !

I've tried to make Kodi works with MySQL, it doesn't work with LibreElec on my Beelink GT1 (this distribution). But it works with libreelec on my raspberry 1 (same configuration file, no restriction on ip,...).

Any ideas ?
