Postby pinkbecca12 » 08 May 2018 15:39

now VLC doesn't recognize any button I use with my Bluetooth headset to play/pause or next/previous hotkeys with the latest Windows update 1803, please I hope you can fix this.

yes audio Bluetooth is working, but it won't recognize when I press the buttons on my headset to play or pause or to register new hotkeys

Unfortunately, this is not VLC managing that.
