[How To] RPi Bluetooth Audio Receiver on latest Xbian [30/05/2016]
Hi All,
After A LOT of trial and error, I have simplified the process of getting RPi to work as a Bluetooth Audio receiver on the latest release of Xbian with Raspberry Pi 3 using the built-in bluetooth module. I hope this can be helpful to someone. Open up ssh/terminal and run the following commands: Install Packages Terminal sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-module-bluetooth bluez-tools Add users to groups Terminal sudo gpasswd -a xbian pulse sudo gpasswd -a xbian lp sudo gpasswd -a pulse lp sudo gpasswd -a xbian audio sudo gpasswd -a pulse audio Setup PulseAudio & Bluetooth Device Terminal sudo sh -c "echo 'extra-arguments = --exit-idle-time=-1 --log-target=syslog' >> /etc/pulse/client.conf" sudo hciconfig hci0 up sudo hciconfig hci0 class 0x200420 sudo reboot Add Bluetooth Device Terminal sudo bluetoothctl Terminal agent KeyboardOnly default-agent Terminal scan on pair xx:xx:xx:... trust xx:xx:xx:... exit After exiting bluetoothctl, initiate the connection from the paired phone/tablet, and play some music Let me know if this works out for you. |

Just upgraded to Pi3 and I have more ideas I will be working on over weekends. Will post them as they get completed and simplified |

@abdulmueid
Yeah, it's really good having more inputs. I'm already working with bluetooth (still in learning phase) but I'm missing one command in your sequence: Terminal connect xx:xx:xx:... is not there |
