Dolphin fails to boot games with Passthrough Bluetooth

barat · 10-20-2016, 06:51 AM #1

Hi,

I downloaded dolphin 5.0-1103 and wanted to check this new feature (wasn't playing wii games for few weeks).
Unfortunately game immediately stops after starting it ... window just closes ...
Funny thing is that if I switch to emulated wii Bluetooth - game starts as normal ...

My setup is Windows 10 (with Anniversary update) and Asus BT-400.

I'm installing WinUSB like in wiki:
https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Bluetooth_Passthrough
I select BCM20702A0 from the list, and click to install WinUSB (v6.1.7600.16385).

From logs I see:
"IPC_HLE\WII_IPC_HLE_Device_usb_bt_real.cpp:91 E[WII_IPC_WIIMOTE]: Failed to get config descriptor for device 8086:8ca6: LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND"

For log file I started Dolphin, enabled logs, cleared them, started Wii Mi Channel and got the error.
Log file attached.

Can someone help, or I should to make a ticket on redmine?

8086:8ca6 is not your Bluetooth adapter, so you can ignore these error messages. It just looks like Dolphin is not detecting your adapter at all. At least one Asus adapter is detected and known to work (albeit a bit poorly), but I'm not sure if that's the BT-211 or BT-400.

So I assume, that I'll need to buy Wii One, and play a little with soldering station ...

Was hoping, that my BT will be working (since there is no info in wiki yet)

Well, it may simply be something we are doing wrong in Dolphin. Having a lsusb -v output would probably help (not sure what's the equivalent under Windows).

But I suggest getting a Wii Bluetooth module, as it works best/perfectly.

This guide for adopting wii module is best "in the internets" or maybe there is something better? Someone was saying there about antenna or so ...
And even with wii original one I steel need to install WinUSB from Zadig?

Yeah, I think you won't find a lot of other guides (or no other guide at all).

Yes, you need the WinUSB driver, otherwise Dolphin can't communicate with the adapter at all. (That's just the way this has to be done on Windows)
