Bluetooth USB dongle for Raspberry Pi 2 Model B

Wed Mar 06, 2019 11:09 pm

Hello,

I am running Libreelec on a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. I would like to buy a Bluetooth USB dongle with data and audio transmission in order to connect my bluetooth headphones and keyboard. Could anyone advise me about a suitable dongle for my Raspberry Pi?

Thanks your help.

Most USB dongles work well with a Pi. Super-cheap knockoffs don't always. I've found CSR chipsets to work well, other reliable manufacturers will also. Expect to pay $7 to $10 for a reliable solution.

I have no experience with Libreelec, and can't comment on it's Bluetooth support.
