Difference between passthrough & real wiimote? - TNU2002 - 06-09-2020

In controller settings, there are two options for Wiimotes:
1. Passthrough a Bluetooth adapter
2. Real Wiimote (Emulate the Wii's Bluetooth adapter)

Which one do I pick and how are they different? I have a Wiimote, usb sensor bar, and usb bluetooth dongle (for the wiimote).
Thx Smile

Bluetooth passthrough has better support for things like Wii Remote audio and third-party Wii Remotes, but it's trickier to set up, and some Bluetooth adapters don't work properly with Bluetooth passthrough.
