GNOME Bluetooth remote control is an efficient and effective software solution designed specifically for the GNOME Desktop, aimed at providing users with a quick and functional remote control experience.
GBTcr offers real-time control through plugins for various media players, including beep-media-player, xmms, mplayer, totem, xine, ooimpress, magic point, gthumb, and gqview. It also supports mouse and keyboard events and features a user-friendly GTK+ based interface that is both nice and HIGgy. Additionally, it provides a Notification Area support with a tray icon.
To use GBTcr, you need to have the bluez-dev, xmms-dev, and libbtctl.dev packages installed on your computer. The latest version of the software comes with several improvements, including icons for signal strength, battery status, and phone model, enhanced HIG compliance, and faster performance. It also adds discovery routines for searching remote Bluetooth devices through libbtctl and command line options for launching the program with --verbose and --debug flags. Lastly, Notification Area support has been added with a descriptive image of actions.
