💖 org.bluez.MediaAssistant — BlueZ D-Bus MediaAssistant API 💖

okay so bestie, this is the org.bluez...Assistant(5) page from the Linux System Administration corner of the manual world, and it's literally the BlueZ D-Bus MediaAssistant API documentation. no cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

org.bluez.MediaAssistant — BlueZ D-Bus MediaAssistant API documentation. that's the whole name moment. iconic. 👑

🎀 INTERFACE 🎀

here's the vibe check for where this interface lives:

• Service: org.bluez
• Interface: org.bluez.MediaAssistant1
• Object path: /org/bluez/{hci0,hci1,...}/dev_{BDADDR}/src_{BDADDR}/sid#/bis#
• Used by: bluetoothctl-assistant(1)

💅 METHODS 💅

🔥 void Push(dict properties) 🔥

Send stream information to the remote device. that's the main character move. ✨

If the assistant is in the "active" state, this method uses BASS_Modify_Source to update the existing source on the remote device instead of adding a new one with BASS_Add_Source. slay, efficient. 💅

dict properties — Indicate stream properties that will be sent to the peer.

Values:

• array{byte} Metadata [ISO only] — See Metadata property.
• dict QoS [ISO only] — See QoS property.
• object Device [ISO only, State=local only] — Push to a specific device. Device must be connected and with an active BASS session.

Examples:

bluetoothctl
> assistant.push <assistant>

• "local" — assistant object was created for a local stream

🎀 array{byte} Metadata [readwrite, ISO Only, experimental] 🎀
