    Hi All,

    I am new to the game so i don’t know if this is possible but can a Bluetooth media remote, like the one found here , be connected to M2P?

    I have a raspberry pi zero w with a JustBoom Amp Zero pHAT and i mostly use Squeeze Player on the M2P, would be great if i could Play/Pause control volume etc with a Bluetooth remote like the one in the ink.

    Does anyone know if this is currently possible?

    Thanks

    Hi roscoe,

    Some users are already utilizing Bluetooth keyboards for control, so it should be possible: https://www.max2play.com/en/forums/topic/bleutooth-keyboards/

    But we cannot guarantee any support for hardware we do not sell or have tested ourselves.

    Hi Heiner,

    I finally bought one of these things, it connects fine over Bluetooth however, doesn’t work out of the box to control Squeeze Player. Is there any advice you can offer to look into getting it working? I think it sees it as a keyboard, so I guess my question is how do I get keyboard commands to play/pause volume up/down? Anything greatly appreciated.

    Copy of the log when it paired…
