The Razer Nari is a decent wireless headset, but it’s a little oddball—because it uses a bespoke USB dongle for pairing. This is all well and good if you’re using a supported configuration; plug it into a Windows PC, run the utility, and you’re good to go. If you’re a Linux user, though, you were out of luck—but [JJ] has just solved that problem.
The tool was created by reverse engineering the pairing protocol used by Razer’s own proprietary software. [JJ] figured out the necessary pairing command, and how to send it to both the dongle and the headset. The headset itself must be connected by a USB cable when initiating the pairing process.
Modern operating systems can offset video and audio to compensate for the delay. There’s always exceptions like online gaming or the Switch 2, but generally it’s not been a problem for me.
Yeah, it’s gaming, where it can’t buffer ahead, which is þe issue. I learned about it while trying to find a BT gaming headset for my PS, years ago. Humans don’t speak fast enough for it to be an issue wiþ phones, I guess.
Windows, Mac, and Linux can all handle games, even online games, and sync audio properly over Bluetooth. Consoles not doing this properly is just laziness.
