      I've tried to do some research, but a lot of the links lead to dead recalbox wiki links (I'm guessing it was redone/migrated leaving a lot of old links dead?)

      I have Recalbox installed on my XU4. I have the old, original bluetooth dongle installed on it (Module 2 here) but recalbox doesn't register any bluetooth controllers. Is it because the dongle is Bluetooth 2.0?

      There is another available (Module 5B here) which uses Bluetooth 2.1. However - it's quite expensive + wanted to check it works before buying it. Also, if there's a cheaper dongle I could buy, I would prefer that.

      Could someone please advise on the above? Thanks

          @alvin Thanks, Alvin. The page is a little unclear, though. Do they all work with the XU4, unless mentioned otherwise?

            I don't know if all these Dongles are compatible with the Odroid XU4 because I'm not an Expert on this System, I use a Raspberry Pi 3B+.

              @alvin Thanks. Yeah - I thought so. It's a shame they don't have a column regarding what hardware these are compatible with. Thus, it doesn't really answer my question, but thanks for trying.

                Is there really no answer to this one? Such a shame. I'm now stuck with Recalbox saying nothing and Odroid saying nothing (and the danger of one saying it's the other's responsibility)... Does anyone know who developed the XU4 build?
