nRF5340 Audio DK with android device as Gateway

[Din87]

Hi,

any sample source code available for Android to set a device up as a gateway to broadcast to nRF5340 over AuraCast?

Hello, 

Not from Nordic, no. The Auracast functionality is up to the Android phone vendors to implement. The functionality could be available through the Bluetooth settings, for example. 

By default the Broadcask sink configuration for the nRF5340 Audio application looks for a broadcast named NRF5340_BROADCASTER. To make the sample compatible with broadcasts with other names, some code modification is required. Let me know if you want details, and I'll provide them. Note that it is common for broadcasts to require password verification to sync to the broadcast. This is not supported by the nRF5340 Audio application by default and will need to be implemented if your broadcast requires a password. 

Best regards,

Maria
