[4.1-unstable] Need testers for a bluetooth major improvement

[jimmirehman]

one issues, not related to BT, but whenever i scrape either via the scrape menu or editing the games metadata, the description and images do not save. I scraped all my nes titles using screen scraper (which is way faster than all other methods btw) but after getting the data for all 63 games, the system said it was successful but when i went to the NES section, none of the titles had the metadata. not sure if this is a bug in this particular release, but previously in the release version of 4.0 scraping worked fine.

@jimmirehman this is off topic

And thank you for your feedback, i'm really glad it's working that good for everyone

[jimmirehman]

@Substring i'm sorry, i wasn't sure if the scraping was broken in this release

[Substring]

@jimmirehman make a separate topic for your scraping issue, let's stick to bluetooth here please

@Substring This is amazing! This is how I expected the controller to pair and function with recalbox. It was such a crap shoot turning on the RB and hoping my controller would pair with it everyday, often taking 5-10 minutes of power cycling the controller.

Now it is FLAWLESS! Thank you thank you thank you

Thank you everyone for yoyr feedback this will be added in the next ynstabke release

Just bought a nes30pro, got it to pair initially but it won't reconnect. I hold the power button to turn it on, I think that's all I have to do on this model for it to reconnect but the blue LEDs just keep blinking. Any suggestions?

@jimmirehman haven't you tried simply pairing it again?

[jimmirehman]

@paradadf yeah I did and it would just immediately say paired. I just deleted all controllers and repaired them both. All is wellmow

I paired a Wii U Pro Controller and a Wii Remote Plus. The Wii U Pro Controller has a delay (around 1s) when pressing any button. On the Wii Remote it was impossible to map the joypad, only up and down worked, no left or right. I juse the internal bluethooth on the ri3.

@badges3000 We know the wiimote is buggy, we need to patch its kernel driver. But regarding the lag ... This can happen in a "noisy" environment (in the bluetooth band i mean). But taht's something i may not be able to fix

I'm closing this thread since the changes have been merged in the main unstable. Please comment further bugs in the main 4.1 unstable thread.

Thank you everyone for your contribution !
