Restrictions and missing features

  • Number of BT connections / devices is restricted to 1 by default. Multiple Bluetooth LE connections can be enabled under "Settings, Development: Preview features".
  • The Bluetooth controller is put to sleep in system standby and re-initialized at wakeup.
    • Some devices will show a disconnect & connect message or popup when the remote wakes up.
    • Different sleep behaviour can only be configured with the REST Core-API at the moment. Instructions will be published.
  • Dock Bluetooth setup is not yet implemented with the new Bluetooth stack.
  • Only US-ASCII character map (other languages will likely have KEY_Z / KEY_Y switched and non-letter & digit keys mapped to something else).
  • Entity state handling is not yet fully implemented, only UNAVAILABLE (if not connected) and UNKNOWN (when connected) are currently used.
  • Power state handling is not yet implemented if the device supports dedicated power on & off commands. Command mapping is prepared in the BT device profile files.
  • Native key repeat is not yet implemented. Pressing & holding a button will send individual key presses.
    • BT remote-entity send_cmd command parameters repeat, delay, hold are ignored.
  • Web-configurator requires manual refresh:
    • after the pairing confirmation, otherwise it still shows as not paired.
    • after deleting a paired device, otherwise it still shows paired.
  • Pairing information is not included in backup archive.

See known device issues for more information.

Fixed in v1.9.0 beta:

  • Entity command validation issue in send_cmd & send_key commands with negative mouse movement values.
