Can you try to reproduce this with the irmc-development branch? Also with=20
enabled OSYNC_TRACE to get more detailed information.=20

export OSYNC_TRACE=3D/tmp/osync_trace;
mkdir /tmp/osync_trace;

In the trace log files are information stored about the used encoding which=

<connectionmedium>bluetooth</connectionmedium>
<btunit>FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF</btunid>
<btchannel>5</btchannel>

so far as i know siefs works also with obex like the irmc-sync plugin.
