Responding to bt headset media buttons #333

Open pwatt01 opened 4 years ago

pwatt01 commented 4 years ago

ON most apps i can use my bt headset to play/pause/skip, however this does not work on Jellyfin. Is it possible to add that functionality??

I did find a cordova plugin or 2 (links below) that seems to allow this functionality, but have never used cordova so don't want to dive in too much :-)

You need to post more information.

Media buttons work fine with my Pixel 3a, Sennheiser BT headphones and Jellyfin-android 1.0.0

Samsung Galaxy Note 8, android 9, Senso Activebuds s-250 & s-270

I can confirm that the media buttons are not working on my setup also. I'm using Jellyfin android 1.0.2 and OnePlus7t + Oneplus Wireless Bullets BT headphones. Volume controls work but pause&play button is not doing anything.

Normally all Bluetooth headphones should send the same play/pause command. Might be a random issue with the playback service. Could you maybe test this on the android-next client? Would be interested whether it's reproducible there as well. You'd need to build the APK yourself though, or download it from the CI pipeline artifacts.
