Hello, I am afraid that BT NG failed to be accepted in time in Tizen Common and so will not be present in Tizen IVI M 14.4. In the time many issues have been corrected in the olf BT FW in order to get M 14.4 features at the required level. Please note that BT NG will have to be accepted in Common before having chance to be introduced in IVI.
In previous chat on this mailing list I express my strong disagreement with a concept of dual stack. Either BT NG is required to get a unified solution and we should have a plan to move to it for all profile by default or the Old BT FW has been changed so much in the last 12 months that it is fit for the job and then the move to BT NG is not required any more. I guess that Samsung TV team has done even more changes in the BT FW in order to release their TV profile than IVI has done to release M 14.4. Would it be possible to get the status (full source and license) of that recent code and its feature level in order to make an up to date comparison in order to be in position to make a good decision.
