BlueZ D-Bus Control API description *********************************** Copyright (C) 2004-2010 Marcel Holtmann Copyright (C) 2007-2008 David Stockwell Control hierarchy ================= Service org.bluez Interface org.bluez.Control Object path [variable prefix]/{hci0,hci1,...}/dev_XX_XX_XX_XX_XX_XX Methods void Connect() Connect to remote device (CT or TG). void Disconnect() Disconnect remote device. dict GetProperties() Returns all properties for the interface. See the properties section for available properties. void VolumeUp() Adjust remote volume one step up void VolumeDown() Adjust remote volume one step down boolean SendPassthrough(avc_operation_id key, boolean state, string op_data) Called to send Passthrough commands. ONLY valid if BlueZ device is in CT role. boolean SendVendorDependent(string op_data) Called to send VendorDependent commands, other than Metadata or Events defined in the AVRCP+Metadata specification. void ChangePlayback(string status, uint32 elapsed) The status can be "playing", "stopped", "paused", "forward-seek", "reverse-seek" or "error". Elapsed is the position within the track in milliseconds. void ChangeTrack(dict metadata) Called to send the mandated TrackChange event and potential metadata information. Current defined metadata information are represented with the following keys: Title string (mandatory) Artist string Album string Genre string NumberOfTracks uint32 TrackNumber uint32 TrackDuration uint32 (in milliseconds) void ChangeSetting(string setting, variant value) Called to transmit Application Settings, CT Status and the like. Currenet defined settings are represented with the following keys: Equalizer off, on Repeat off, singletrack, alltracks, group Shuffle off, alltracks, group Scan off, alltracks, group Battery normal, warning, critical, external, fullcharge System powered, unpowered, unplugged Volume uint8 Signals Connected() Sent when a successful AVRCP connection has been made to the remote device. Disconnected() Sent when the AVRCP connection to the remote device has been disconnected. Passthrough(uint8 key, boolean state, int32 company_id, string op_data) Called when Passthrough command is received from connected device. NOTE: according to the AV/C Subpanel Spec, company_id and op_data are passed ONLY when the key is "Vendor_Unique", or 0x7E. When the key is NOT 0x7E, the signal returns company_id=-1, and zero-length op_data. VendorDependentReceived(string op_data) Called when VendorDependent message is received from connected device (except for Metadata defined in Bluetooth SIG AVRCP+Metadata spec). TrackChanged(dict metadata) Called when Metadata is received from connected device. May be multiple meta attribute/element pairs. PlaybackChanged(string status, uint32 elapsed) SettingChanged(string setting, variant value) Properties uint8 SubUnitID [readonly] The three-bit Subunit ID from the connected device. uint8 SubUnitType [readonly] The five-bit Subunit Type from the connected device. boolean Connected [readonly] array{uint32} CompanyIDs [readonly] List of three-byte Company IDs (OUI) supported by the connected device. Note that Bluetooth SIG Company ID (0x001958) is always included. array{string} Capabilities [readonly] List of Capabilities provided by the connected device.
