Hello people, I'm wondering if there is a software similar to
evtest for Mac to capture keycodes from a cheap bluetooth page turner device. (Got from Aliexpress. Image below.)
I go this device out of curiosity and with my config (based on educated guess) all the buttons just turn the page back. Without evtest I'm at a disadvantage here.
Things I've tested and confirmed working:
1. The bt remote works on my mac and Android phone flawlessly
2. My BT mouse works perfectly on my Kobo
Interestingly, I did see a post on this thread that led me to a
blog post with the exact device as mine but it's a couple years old and the config no longer works.
The device appears as "Beauty-R1". I have a raspberrypi but I could never get the BT device connect with it. (Connection drops soon after it's paired.) So I want to give it one more shot before I buy a 8bitdo Micro.
My current config (which turns the page back for all the buttons)

I'm not well versed with the BT lore in Kobo parlance, but is there any hope for me?
