Since {{revision|5.0-910}}, Dolphin has the ability to passthrough a Bluetooth adapter for emulated Wii software. This gives emulated Wii software full control of a Bluetooth adapter, which, provided a decent, working adapter, notably allows pairing Wii Remotes to Dolphin, third-party Wii Remote support, working Wii Remote audio and more accurate connectivity.

This gives emulated Wii software full control of a Bluetooth adapter, which, provided a decent, working adapter, notably allows pairing Wii Remotes to Dolphin, third-party Wii Remote support, working Wii Remote audio and more accurate connectivity.
== Limitations ==
* The functionality and quality of the connections heavily depend on the quality of the adapter.
* Even though most adapters work fine in passthrough mode, the only perfect adapter is the Wii's Bluetooth module (so far).
* Save states can be used with some limitations.
* Because Bluetooth Passthrough Mode skips Dolphin's emulated Bluetooth and Wii Remote code entirely, it is not possible to mix passthrough mode and emulated/real Wii Remote. This means that netplay, TAS input, input display, etc. cannot work.

Download and open [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig], then:


1. In the "Options" menu in Zadig, make sure "List All Devices" is enabled.
WARNING:  While a libusb driver is installed, other programs/devices will not be able to use your Bluetooth device. This can be easily reverted in Windows Device Manager and instructions are provided below.


2. Look through the devices for the device to passthrough.
Download and open [http://zadig.akeo.ie/ Zadig] as Administrator, then:
# In the "Options" menu in Zadig, make sure "List All Devices" is enabled.
# Look through the devices for the device to passthrough.
# On the right column, select "libusbk" or then click "Replace Driver". Select "Yes" to modify the system driver.


3. On the right column, select "libusbk" then click "Replace Driver". Select "Yes" to modify the system driver.
If you wish to return your Bluetooth back to normal, start "Device Manager" and locate "libusbK" devices in the list.  Right click the device you wish to restore and uninstall device.  Upon plugging it in next time, Windows will install the default Bluetooth driver and it will continue functioning per normal.  NOTE:  If you used the winUSB driver instead, it will be located under "Universal Serial Bus Devices." Same instructions apply otherwise.
 
If Dolphin is unable to use your Bluetooth device after doing this, it may not have the necessary hardware features. You can attempt to use the "winUSB" driver from zadig as a last ditch effort.
 
==== usbdk ====
 
As of {{revision|5.0-10617}} usbdk is no longer supported.
 
Some users who wish to maintain use of their Bluetooth Device and use it in Dolphin without swapping drivers have opted to use usbdk.  When Dolphin starts up, you will lose control of your Bluetooth Device and regain it when Dolphin is shutdown.  While this cuts down on the work if you need to use your Bluetooth device across many controllers, usbdk has many bugs.  The worst of which is that any ES_Launch will immediately crash freeze the game due to usbdk losing control of the Bluetooth.

It is possible to use the "Press Sync Button" hotkey as an alternative to the buttons in the controller configuration dialog.


You will need to map "Press Sync Button" to a key or combination of keys. This can be done within Dolphin by left clicking on the "Hotkey Settings" tab under "Options" to bring up the appropriate configuration menu. You must then left click on the "Wii and Wii Remote" tab and left click on the box for "Press Sync Button" to map this hotkey.

==== Forcing a specific adapter ====  
==== Forcing a specific adapter ====
If you need to use a specific adapter, instead of using the first Bluetooth adapter that is found, you can force Dolphin to use it by editing Dolphin's configuration file (Config/Dolphin.ini). In the BluetoothPassthrough section, set "VID" and "PID" to your adapter's vendor ID and product ID (that you previously converted from hex to decimal).

In the BluetoothPassthrough section, set "VID" and "PID" to your adapter's vendor ID and product ID. [http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/hex-to-decimal.htm These values should be converted from hex to decimal], for example a VID of "057E" should be inputted as "1406".
