I tried the pairing with Windows 8.1 x64, without success

Here is the program output:

==== Looking for Bluetooth radios ==== (0) xxxx PC

Using the only available Bluetooth radio. Making radio accept incoming connections. Making radio discoverable.

==== Connecting new controllers ==== (0) yyyy Motion Controller CoD: 0x00002508, CON: 0, REM: 0, AUTH: 0

device #0: Move Motion Controller detected (0) yyyy Motion Controller CoD: 0x00002508, CON: 1, REM: 0, AUTH: 0

device #0: Move Motion Controller detected

(0) yyyy Motion Controller CoD: 0x00002508, CON: 0, REM: 1, AUTH: 0

After that the led of the motion controller continoues blinking and goes off.

I tried it several times

Do You know a working connection procedure for Windows 8.1 x64?

I do not have Windows 8 available for testing, but there was some successful registry hacking described on the PS Move API mailing list for that version of Windows:

The procedure from the mailing list along with some more tweaks went into the branch win8-support. It seems to work pretty well on Windows 8.1.
