Randy,
Do you recommend I make the changes as described in the discussion to
Or….
Use the files contained in the zip file?
Currently, I’ve made the changes to the first two files per the discussion.

Randy,
I could not get the BT to connect to the Pi in a repeatable manner. So I replaced the version 3 Bluetooth files with the ones offered by Marcel in Picochess.zip (Version 2
Bluetooth files)
Now, I get a repeatable connection at bootup (takes about 42 seconds) and no issues playing multiple games on the Pi.
Here’s a YouTube video link showing the retime connection speed and some notes I made on the file replacement process.
That's great news, Mark!
One issue that was mentioned was whether the Pi would reconnect to the board if the board was powered OFF and later powered back ON while leaving the Pi running. I'm wondering about how this was accomplished (maybe Marcel can provide some insight)? If you shut OFF the board, what happens with the picochess web display (or DGTPi display)? Will picochess resume once/if the board is detected? If not, does stopping/starting the picochess service do it? I'm not sure I'd be leaving my Pi turned ON once I'm finished playing chess but others might.

I received the Bluetooth board this morning. No issues connecting to Bluetooth with the Pi after making the suggested edits to the startup files (i.e., I didn't use the file replacements in the zip file).
Thanks for the link to the discussion where these edits were discussed.

Yes, it will… I shut off the BT, verified the Pi would not recognize a move and turned the BT on the board back on and it connected in about 5 seconds.

Randy,
If you provide me with a link to the Bullseye image that contains Picochess, I’ll test the BT.

I should add… that I was working on a clean version of Picochess and not the previous one I modified. So I’m fairly certain, the isolation is sound.

I isolated it... I only had to change the file: bluetoothctl in one location /bin with the version 2 file bluetoothctl, and I get a repeatable connection at boot in about 20 seconds. If I cycle the BT on and off on the board, it will reconnect to the Pi.
