Hello Lemmy,

This release contains some major bugfixes, which include:

  • Correctly resolving adapter-device relationships (👀)
  • Fixing OBEX transfers
  • Properly syncing media player with the connected device during playback

And much more.

For Windows/MacOS users, libhbluetooth needs to be installed. Follow the download instructions and place the libhbluetooth dynamic library file next to the bluetuith binary, and then launch bluetuith.

Bluetuith is a TUI based bluetooth manager, that aims to be an alternative to most bluetooth managers, and can perform bluetooth based operations like:

  • Connection to and general management of bluetooth devices, with device information like battery percentage, RSSI etc. displayed, if the information is available. More detailed information about a device can be viewed by selecting the 'Info' option in the menu or by clicking the 'i' key.

  • Bluetooth adapter management, with toggleable power, discoverability, pairablilty and scanning modes.

  • Transfer and receive files via the OBEX protocol, with an interactive file picker to choose and select multiple files.

  • Handle both PANU and DUN based networking for each bluetooth device (Linux only)

  • Control media playback on the currently connected device, with a media player popup that displays playback information and controls. (Linux only)

I hope you enjoy this release, and any feedback is appreciated.

Personally, ricing. I want as much as i can get in the terminal, cause it looks cool, and works 99% with no kinks and slowdown due to fancy graphics (which tbh just looks worse in the end with a specialized setup)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
