Hi all,
I seem to remember having seen a mention of a little program that could sort
of talk to the Mediapad of the Logitech DiNovo Media Desktop set. Does anyone
have a copy of this code? I would love to take a look at it. Unfortunately I
do not have any access to hardware that can sniff the bluetooth packets from
a Microsoft Windows machine, but I think that stuff like that should already
be available somewhere?
Any pointers would help!
Thanks,
Rutger Hendriks

Hi Rutger
Marcel made a "proof of concept" program long time ago, but it seems
he didn't give a copy to anyone, and now it is lost. He does not have
time/interest to re-make it either. AFAIR, he described the protocol
as "a strange beast running on top of the HID protocol", but no more
technical info was available at the time I searched for it (Almost two
years ago).
If you have any reverse engineering skills, do you really depend on a
bluetooth sniffer? As far as I know, there is a program called "USB
Spy" for Windows that can capture the communication going to and from
the hub.
I wish you the best of luck. A generic command line tool would be
great for amaroK/Kopete/Kmail plugins. Maybe this tool is something
that can be achieved with a bounty, or something like elance.com. I
know that those few that own the diNovo are drooling for this feature,
probably enough to chip in a few bucks.
Kind regards
