I was pretty disappointed by the Raspberry Pi's internal Bluetooth module but none of the Bluetooth USB dongles I had was working with piCorePlayer because of missing firmware:
[ 26.545192] Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: firmware file rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_fw.bin not found Hence, I created a f*irmware extension adding support for Realtek-powered devices* in piCorePlayer. You can find it here: https://www.dl6er.de/pCP/firmware-bluetooth-rtl.tcz The firmware has been taken from 'git.kernel.org' (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/rtl_bt). I'd like to ask for inclusion in the piCorePlayer repository for simplicity reasons as other users might find this useful, too. With this extension loaded at boot time, I succeeded in testing seven out of seven different Bluetooth 4.0, 5.0 and 5.1 dongles. I particularly enjoy being able to stream to my piCorePlayer from everywhere in the house to my EDUP 100M USB Bluetooth Dongle.
