Recommend good Bluetooth Stack

Nirth · 09-08-2010, 02:45 AM #1

OK, I got the wii mote & nunchuck but this bluetooth business is some annoying fiddling. Anyway, I got this bluetooth dongle atm: http://www.elec-intro.com/EX/05-14-06/billionton520.jpg

I bought two of these as well but they haven't arrived yet: http://www.geekalerts.com/u/usb-bluetooth-dongle.jpg

I couldn't find any info on the second if it was support according to that list in some guide but the first should work with M$ drivers which it kind of does, it finds it but I can't calibrate anything.

Any help would be appreciated. Smile

OK I got Toshiba trial bluetooth software atm, will do.

Why doesn't the emu recognize my Wii mote? It does work during Metroid Other M but not the nunchuck (I know it's not needed but using only Wiimote didn't really do it for me).

As the Auto-Pairup feature of the Wiimote plugin now works very well, try the Windows stack.

It doesn't seem to work, the dolphin starts up but then I lose Wiimote connection or the game freezes. Sad

Is there no good software for this that's freeware? I almost regret buying the Wiimote due to how unstable bluetooth is (wireless really suck).

EDIT: A problem I seem to have I don't get is the WiinRemote or whatever, is that suppose to be on during Dolphin? Because I can't use it due to the Dolphin using 99% of my CPU power. It seems that aside from the unstable bluetooth connection I lack some sort of calibration program for the Wiimote (and Nunchuck) that I need along with running the emulator.

I have no problems using bluesoliel.

Increade the Timeout in the Wiimote settings. I am using a value of 200ms. With 30ms I also got disconects one after another.

I bought a couple cheap dongles juste like the second image you posted. None of them support more than one data connection... I can only seem to be able to connect one controller to them...

Can you tell me if yours work with multiple data connection?

Thanks!

I can check as soon as I find something else than Windows crap stack.

The alternatives are Bluesoleil or Toshiba. Both you have to pay for, if it was not shipped as oem with the dongle.

And MS stack is not that bad (ok. Know only the one of windows 7). Had to roll back to it, as the Toshiba stack wasn't able to connect to my phone.
