Bluetooth_Headset_Battery_Level

Bluetooth_Headset_Battery_Level copied to clipboard

I've got this working on an old Win10 machine and that's all good. But on a new Win10 machine (same Win10 build 1909) with the same Python version (3.7.2), I can't seem to get this to run.

When running this: bluetooth_battery cc:98:8b:56:8c:ad

I get this:

PS C:\Users\Ricky\pybluez-0.23> bluetooth_battery cc:98:8b:56:8c:ad                                                                                           Traceback (most recent call last):

At first, I thought maybe it's to do with Pybluez. So I've tried installing v0.23 as well as v0.3. Both Pybluez versions installed fine and I was able to install bluetooth_battery OK as well. But whenever I run it, I get the same error message regardless of which Pybluez version I'm using.

This issue is more related to PyBluez than to this repository. Try running:

import bluetooth

in a Python shell and if it gives you an error, open a new issue in https://github.com/pybluez/pybluez/ repository and ask them for help. They might know what is wrong.

Also there is a discussion in this issue that might help you: https://github.com/pybluez/pybluez/issues/180

this might be the same issue as pybluez/pybluez#369
