Executive Summary
The goal of this project is to interface a simple android application with the BeagleBone. Songs will be able to be chosen and controlled from the Android App and played through a speaker connected to the bone either directly or through Bluetooth.

Packaging
If you have hardware, consider Small Build, Big Execuition for ideas on the final packaging.

Installation Instructions
Give step by step instructions on how to install your project.

possible instructions to turning on bluetooth: https://olsonetworks.wordpress.com/2014/01/03/enabling-bluetooth-on-your-beaglebone-black/
 * Include your github path as a link like this to the read-only git site: https://github.com/boxetham/EmbeddedLinuxMusicAppProject.
 * Be sure your README.md is includes an up-to-date and clear description of your project so that someone who comes across you git repository can quickly learn what you did and how they can reproduce it.
 * Include a Makefile for your code if using C.
 * Include any additional packages installed via apt. Include install.sh and setup.sh files.
 * Include kernel mods.
 * If there is extra hardware needed, include links to where it can be obtained.

Perhaps try adding the following to your $HOME/.mplayer/config file: lirc=no

if bluetoothctl gives you waiting to connect to bluetoothd: I had to load the kernel module btusb. To test if this will solve the problem for you, run :
 * sudo modprobe btusb
 * sudo systemctl start bluetooth

User Instructions
