where and how to start?

[steven-varga]

Cool project! -- my goal is to write a plugin to synergy variant barrier and looking for library that is suitable for this purpose. Can anyone confirm libblepp suitable to create a HID service or HID over GATT profile (HOGP) ?

Unfortunately after compiled the examples on a LinuxMint 20.3 Lenovo X1 and running the examples with sudo I am getting:

ivarga@ivargalinux:~/src/libblepp/examples$ sudo ./lescan
warn  1686933312.244332: Received I/O error while setting scan parameters.
warn  1686933312.244353: Switching off HCI scanner

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'BLEPP::HCIScanner::IOError'
  what():  Error disabling scan:: Input/output error
Aborted

The bluez stack is bluetoothctl: 5.63; what could I be doing wrong?

Same issue here. Scan doesn't seem to work.
Environments:
