BBC Radio 1

Play and Pause on BBC Sounds from Bluetooth Headset

I love BBC Radio 1 and I listen to it on the BBC Sounds website. But I noticed something weird. This web player is able to respond to my play/pause command from my Bluetooth headset!

This is quite weird, since not even popular websites like YouTube supported this kind of controls from a Bluetooth headset.

So I started researching.

Radio

14 February 2018

I have an obsession with radio, especially BBC Radio 1.

I’ve started listening to BBC Radio 1 since 2011. I’m listening from UTC+7 and UTC+8 time zones. Because of that, I can only listen to daytime radio shows. Greg James is my favorite, as he has more similar music taste to me. Some other shows that are okay: Alice Levine. Danny Howard’s Dance Anthems were great too. This show plays song remixes only, and for first hour or two, it was usually good, but after a while, you kinda sick of remixes. …

It’s the end of April. It’s the end of my 5-paper-in-3-day suffering.

*: studying + other stuffs like checking Facebook, e-mail, WhatsApp, playing game, some coding, wild project ideas appearing.
#: yeah, I took rest now and then although sometimes rest time can extend so much that finally I decided not to study.

First week of October 2012

In the first week of October 2012, I’ve been very busy preparing for school exam, 1st National Training Camp (Pelatnas 1 TOKI 2013), the first TWoS, and also the legalisation of my documents needed to apply to universities.

The week started normally. My game for TWoS have been finished and the network testing have been done on the Saturday before that day. All I need was just bug finding. On Saturday, 6 October 2012, my school’s extracurricular club, SSEC (Sutomo 1 Science Exploration Club) held a science fair called “The Wonder of Science” a.k.a. TWoS. In this fair, like the fair before, was divided into some divisions, I got a part on computing. In computing, there was two game played, one is mine which is available at http://bit.ly/twos12A . This is a very basic implementation of binary search. The first time I solve a problem like this, I don’t even know that I used Binary-Search Algorithm. The other one was made by Charlie, it was a quiz program called “Who Wants to be a Millionaire”.

This week, our group on biology also presented for the third unit: genetic matters. Well, ours was the most time-consuming one, and so far, always become the first to present.

This week also, my documents were successfully submitted for legislation after one time rejected. They called me to take back the legalised copies on Monday.

Today, 7 October 2012, in the morning I had Physics-First Try Out. Well, I think I can do good there. At 10, I attended the class of Physics talking about Current of Electricity. Around 11.30 if I’m not mistaken, the teacher, Johan, started to talk about his experience of meeting Tsunami back in December 2004. My eyes unintendedly became red and watery. His story somewhat made us realize that sometimes money can’t buy things that are on sale: because the owner didn’t sell it any more (because the owner needed the goods for his/her survival, not for money any more)

After the class was over, I went back home and had lunch. Then my father fetched me to the other house. In the way there, we stopped at Clover Bakeshoppe to buy my birthday cake. Around 3, it started to rain. the rain was chasing cats and dogs. The electricity went out; the wind was also heavy. I played RA2:YR once, and BF2 once. In the evening, we went out to Cambridge City Square to have a dinner at The Grand Duck King. We ordered Beijing Duck, tofu, char-siew, siew-mays, siao-lung-paos. They were very nice. We went to Brastagi Supermarket and then went back to home. Luckily I’m close enough to have the opportunity to listen to some of the live stream of BBC Radio 1’s Teen Awards performance. There were Taylor Swift, 1D, Fun., etc. Following the programme was the Official Chart. Well, I can’t follow them all cause I had to sleep. Bye.
