Some of the HID consumer codes are not working as expected using the ble_hid_device_demo example (PlayPause(0xCD) AC Home (0xDF)) (IDFGH-13227)

What is the expected behavior?

What I am trying to do is to emulate an STB Remote Controller that uses the BLE connection to control a STB, when I connect the original remote control to my Android Phone I can detect the commands, and I can control i.e. the youtube player; Using the BLE example now I am able to use most of the commands defined there, but for _HID_CONSUMER_PLAYPAUSE that is defined in hid_dev.h file, it is not working as expected, neither in the STB or in the Youtube player, and the same is happening with the _HID_CONSUMER_ACHOME but this last one is not defined in hid_dev.h but I guess the code is the rigth one.

Most of the commands are working as expected using the HID, and HID consumer codes, exept for codes:

#define HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE 205 // Play/Pause and one more code not defined but acoording to some search should be : #define HID_CONSUMER_AC_HOME 223 // AC Home

What is the actual behavior?

When I connect the BLE device to an application that identifies the keypressed, this is doing nothing, Is like the user is sending anything.

Steps to reproduce.

Basically I just modified the example to hardcode the commands:

I am sending the keycode in true,
Then I wait small period of time to simulate the keypress
Then I sent the keycode in false to release the key

            esp_hidd_send_consumer_value(hid_conn_id, HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE, true);
            vTaskDelay(100 / portTICK_PERIOD_MS);
            esp_hidd_send_consumer_value(hid_conn_id, HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE, false);

Build or installation Logs.

No response

More Information.

I have tried all the codes from 0x00 to 0xFF in both HID and HID Consumer codes and none of them are doing what is expected. I did it to discard that maybe there is another code expected.
I have tried adding the 0x09, 0xCD, // Usage (Play/Pause)to the descriptor _hid_device_leprf.c file
Also I noticed that the case to build the buffer when calling the function: _hid_consumer_buildreport has all the cases exept for the commands that I was looking for, so I have tried adding the case like:

case HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE:
            HID_CC_RPT_SET_BUTTON(buffer, HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE);
            break;

but none of the above solutions are working as what I was expecting.

Any help or advice is really apreciated

@rleython Thanks for choosing Espressif product! May I know which chip do you use?

Thanks for your reply @weiyuhannnn , I am using the ESP32-WROOM-32D

I have the same issue.

esp_hidd_send_consumer_value(hid_conn_id, HID_CONSUMER_PLAY_PAUSE, true);

has no effect
