I want to stream from my phone to a raspi 3 (using the integrated bluetooth of the raspi 3, without using an external dongle). The raspi runs osmc with confluence skin with up-to-date versions.
I could install successfully these commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install a2dp-app-osmc
What is the next step?
I’ve expected to find some new entry en confluence to configure/pair the bluetooth but I couldn’t. Are there such menus available? If yes, where?
Or should I configure the bluetooth using linux shell commands? If yes, how?
Thanks @fzinken! I could pair my phone with “My Osmc” add-on!!!
I have still a problem: I can stream audio to the TV set but the sound doesn’t go to the analog audio output of the raspi. The audio output is properly configured, if I play music or videos, the audio goes to both, TV and audio output. My goal is to hear music without using the TV.
I took some time to read this thread and at least 15 persons have the same problem, but none of the answers helped me
I’ve tried to configure ALSA settings as proposed by @Alistair_Richardson without success: amixer -c 0 cset numid=3 1
The interesting thing is that when playing music over BT, changing any setting in audio output (only analog, only HDMI, both, alsa) makes no effect, the sound goes always to HDMI. Tests were done with these versions:
Yes that works fine, no issues there. The crash occurs only when kodi is running immediately when playback starts from the audio source. I’ve tried re-pairing already.
Hello, have a problem with BT … Have bought the osmc dongle. Connection is wonderful, but when I run music, it stutters unfortunately when playing … My setup, Rasp 3B + with Kodi 17 in the BMW E39 … Tested with P10 and P30 Pro best regards
I’m using this and my phone is connected and if I play music phone doesn’t give any sound and that means that it sends sound to RPi through bluetooth. The problem is that I don’t know how to make RPi play it. Sometimes it just does, sometimes it just don’t.
Is there already addon or builtin BT function to see what’s playing and so on? To control BT?
I’ve installed A2DP as per these instructions on my Vero 4K.
After a restart, the Settings/System/Audio is set to playback through PulseAudio server. I’ve enabled bluetooth in MyOSMC/Network, which expands the option to “Start/Stop Discovery”. But no devices ever show up. The “Start/Stop Discovery” button blinks briefly and nothing else happens.
Through SSH (putty):
“bluetoothctl” triggers an endless “waiting to connect to bluetoothd”
“systemctl status bluetooth” returns:
bluetooth.service - Bluetooth service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/bluetooth.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Drop-In: /etc/systemd/system/bluetooth.service.d
