Hey,
I'm just curious, what Bluetooth stack the majority of the dolphin users are using to connect their wiimotes.
I'm pretty sure it's Microsofts own Bluetooth stack, however I still want to know it for sure due some coding stuff I'm up to.
Thanks in advance.

What is a bluetooth stack?

im using windows' stack with widcomm drivers(for the adaptor).
yes that was a pain to config (basicly, the required widcomm stack for my adaptor didn't support to skip the pair password stuff >_> )

Microsoft's bluetooth stack doesn't seem to work with my adapter and dolphin, so instead I use Toshiba Bluetooth stack.

Funny thing, there's a glitch in Toshiba's Bluetooth stack.
Non-toshiba hardware is limited to a 30 day trial, fully functional.
Once the trial ends, you can't use the bluetooth software.
However, if you uninstall the bluetooth stack, delete the settings whilst uninstalling, and then reinstall it, it resets your 30 days.

I've been doing this for months, using my Wiimote with Dolphin.
Saves me from having to pay for something like Bluesoleil, for a cheap bluetooth adapter I bought at tescos.

incompatibile with ur stick in general? no way of pairing up your wiimote? or just not functional ingame .
Im working on a socketlike approach under msstack, that might fix your problem then if u were able to pair up your wiimote under ms stack.

@Daco you know you dont have to skip the password pair. the password for all non password bluetooth devices is "0000"

widcomm/broadcom, works like a charm, never any bandwidth issues even with 4 players.
M$ stack on other PC works fine too.
