I just purchased a Sonos Move to use in my bedroom and want to connect it via bluetooth 5.0 transmitter from Amazon that is plugged into my projector:

How do I get the move to connect automatically to the bluetooth transmitter?

The blue flashing lights on both the move and transmitter just keep flashing blue...

UPDATE: I got it working after looking at the instruction manual for the bluetooth adapter. Having the Sonos Move as a projector speaker is incredible!!!

Hi @epiic.

Welcome to the Sonos community and thanks for reaching out to us. I understand that you wanted to connect your Sonos Move via Bluetooth to your projector using a Bluetooth transmitter. Let me help you out with that.

The Sonos Move’s Bluetooth feature and capability were made for the sole purpose of connecting a mobile controller with Bluetooth function to be able to play music. Pairing the Sonos Move via Bluetooth is a manual procedure that is done the same way as connecting a mobile phone to any Bluetooth device. The Sonos Move is not capable of connecting automatically to a Bluetooth transmitter as the situation needs to be the other way around, The Bluetooth capable controller should be the one connecting to the Sonos Move. 

I hope this helps out in providing some clarifications.

Please let us know if you still have further questions or concerns. We are always here to help.

Thanks,

Also, when i switch to wifi mode and back to bluetooth, it automatically reconnects to my projector without doing anything. These devices are a match made in heaven. :)

eppic:  What BT transmittor device did you use?  Looking to do the same.

 

EDIT:  I went back to the original and saw the brand.  Going with their Pro edition, and I’ll keep you posted.
