Support Sony Link Buds for Head Tracking
emassey0135 opened this issue · comments
Will this app be able to support the Sony Link Buds for head tracking, or does this require a proprietary component from Sony? Soundscape is listed as a supported service in the Headphones Connect app, so I am not sure if that means that Sony must approve an app in order for it to work with its headphones, or if any app can use the API and it just works.
Also, sorry for creating a blank issue and then fixing it; I accidentally pressed my security key twice instead of once so after it logged me in it created a blank issue with a random title.
The code as released by Microsoft does include some support for headphones that provide head tracking, but it might be limited to AirPods and others with native iOS support. In any case, I'm not sure any of the current Openscape contributors have LinkBuds to test with, so we'd be relying on contributors to confirm or re-implement this functionality.
If you post the question in the microsoft/soundscape repo, the original developers may be able to confirm whether any relevant code was omitted. Since I don't see any references to "sony" or "linkbuds" in the codebase, I suspect it was.
