Bluetooth channels in config file

[GoogleCodeExporter]

   When bluetooth channel is set to zero, channel one is assigned to the mediaplayer that started first, channel 2 to the player started second an so on. 
But channel one is giving errors.To avoid that i manually set it to 2 but now 
only one player works at a time (the mediaplayer started second is not seen 
when sdptools was run) and also library feature on the client is not working.
   Is there any way to set thr bluetooth channel vaue to zero and still avoid channel one. 
   Also i feel if there is a way to input channels as a range of numbers in config file (instead of a single no.) , it will be helpful for users with such problems with specific ports to avoid those channels and still use multiple channels.

I'm afraid the Bluetooth API does not provide this feature. Either one can 
choose a specific channel or let the system decide completely on its own, 
without ranges or blacklists.

Still, you can use multiple players simultaneously: you need to set an 
*individual* channel for each player in ~/.config/remuco/remuco.cfg.

I guess it works now (no news are good news).

How to set individual channel for each player?
I tried x- bluetooth-channel = 2 under [rhythmbox] but sdptool shows that 
rhythmbox is using channel which was specified under [Default].

Remove the `x-`. Options starting with `x-` are only valid for certain players. 
For instance the MPD player adapter has options to connect to a remote MPD. In 
contrast, the Bluetooth channel is an option which may be set for every player. 
When set in a player-specific section, it *overwrites* the value given in 
section 'default'. So do it like that:

    [rhythmbox]
    bluetooth-channel = 2
