Enigma2 Vu+ Bluetooth remore

[tcox]

Does anyone have this working please?

I have;
Vu+ Ultimo 4k
Vu+ official bluetooth remote

The remote will pair with my phone, so I think it's ok

The Ultimo, after ChatGPT installed some packages, offers a Bluetooth menu. But when I ask it to pair, it cannot find the remote. Experiments with some old USB BT dongles were also fruitless.

Anything I should try please? The Enigma2 box is in an equipment closet, without line of sight. I could go down the IR repeater route, but that's less fun

do you have the bluetooth version off the ultimo ?

"The Ultimo, after ChatGPT installed some packages, offers a Bluetooth menu" - why would you do this??

 

[tcox]

it's my understanding that all ultimo 4k boxes have bluetooth

is this not true?

 

[bellejt]

the first specs on vu website did not mention it. Googled and found several problems with it

"after ChatGPT installed some packages" - what has ChatGPT" to do with this?? Vu+ has its own plugins

i'm beginning to believe that there are problems with it

this evening: i will try some bluetooth headphones on it

it's a pity if it has bluetooth, but can't work with the (maybe later generation?) remote control

what I find is that the bluetooth is ment for coupling soundbars and headphones but VU+ service says a dongle from VU+ for remote

 

[tcox]

if i can find their dongle, i'll buy one. but it claims you don't need it for the ultimo 4k

but maybe this just doesn't work

if I google : vu+ ultimo installation bluetooth remote I find several manuals with images how to
