Looking to route the sound coming from video files through bluetooth, i have sound from music going through just fine, but i can have it playing music then open a video file in the same program and it'll stop playing through the headphones and play through the speaker, the program i use doesn't matter, does this for everything, i've searched the forums and just the internet in general on a way to get this working and all i can find it things on how to route music, does anyone know a way to get this working? thank you
Been awhile, does anyone have any ideas on this?
Just use TCPMP (freeware media player). I'm watching Red Dwarf with it and the audio's going right to my bluetooth headphones. You'll want to get the codec pack so it'll be able to play many more formats than it already can.
I had problems with skipping when watching videos in tcpmp while using a2dp. I tried coreplayer, and it worked perfectly - well worth splashing out for!
I'll give it a try tonight, not sure if i tried that one yet or not, thanks for the suggestion
Yeah same situation, i have no idea why why it refuses to run sound from video through bluetooth, when music will work fine
did you do anything special to get this working, or was it just working already?
I didnt do anything special. I'm using sony DR-BT30Q headphones, and I just paired them, press play on the headphones to activate the a2dp service, and the headphone symbol appears on the screen. Its all operational from that point.

Nuts, what happens on mine is i'll set it up to play through the headphones, sometimes play a song or something to verify the sound is going through the headphones, then i'll load up a video, and there will be a click in my headphones and then sound starts coming through the phone speaker, and for everything until i pair them up again.
maybe i need to get some new headphones or something!
Is it possible its just a problem with my rom?
i use pdacorner version..6 i think due to my crazy battery drain problems with any newer ones than that, maybe i'll try swapping out a new rom and see if it helps at all, honestly have never tried it.
I have never had any problem on any rom, and have tried about 5 or 6 over the last year. At the moment I am very happy with crc's stable roms, and have no a2dp problems with it.

I have the Softbank X01HT and I am trying to get my bluetoot headset working.
I have the i-PHONO PLUS BT450Rx Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.
It skips a little, and I think it may be because of how much it lags the PPC.
As soon as music is playing in media player through the bluetooth the ppc suffers heavy lag if I try doing anything else the music will highly skip and you can tell everything is very slow.
If i stop the audio from playing by clicking pause the lag is gone. I don't remember my old Cingular 8125 lagging this bad when bluetooth was playing, and that had half this processor, so I'm guessing something is wrong?
Has anyone else had this problem?
I would appreciate help,
Thanks
yeah it lags abit when the A2DP is on.
Well I just installed the a2dp cab fix I found on these forums and It seemed to help alot and I think it even fixed my skipping problem!
Can't say for sure yet have only tested for about 15 minutes, but it was skipping every 15 seconds or so before now no skipping at all.
My media player dosent skip now which is good.
But still my skype skips if I try using the headset with skype.
I'm guessing because skype takes more resources than media player.
Have you had any luck using a bluetooth headset with skype marktang?
no lol i have never used skype yet. and for the skipping problem i never had that. the only problem i have is that when im using stereo bluetooth the phone will lag abit.
Well I'm pretty sure that A2DP cab fixed the skipping on media player.
But I really want to use the headset for skype too, but I think because a2dp takes up resources and skype takes a lot of resources it is laggy.
Do you know of any way to free up resources? What programs I can close or something, or is there a way yet to overclock the cpu on the X01HT?
I don't know if this is the right section but.............
I have a bluetooth earpiece paired with my device (elfin) wich works great for calls but i would also hear music with it but can only get it to work with a stereo one. Is there any way to get music through my "mono" bt headset???

Thanks

well you can use music over bt software.. do a googling nd u can find the same....
Thanks, found something will try it out
alright
The way I solved the same problem was by installing Conduits Pocket Player. I installed to my card, just to save space, but can be installed to the device, not too hungry memory-wise. It is actually a very nice player overall with finger scrolling and full selection and browsing features. I use it instead of WMP and wish someone would integrate it into a ROM and remove the blasted WMP altogether. It has an option of sending your music to your bluetooth mono headset. In fact, I installed it on all of my WM devices for that very purpose.
But the question I have is whether someone knows of Java software that will send music to a mono bluetooth set on my LG Prada. Or... a working java mp3 player with the same function. Anyone?
works great, best solution so far thank you very much
Glad to be of assistance
I switched from a Blackberry to an HTC TD2 and now am not able to walk around stores with music running through my Bluetooth. Is this a known problem with HTC or am I missing a setting. I looked everywhere and didn't see a setting that changes. Also I'd like to be able to watch Coreplayer with a Bluetooth but, just like music, I hit the button to activate Bluetooth, I hear the sound, and 3 seconds later it reverts back to speaker.
is there a fix that would help me?
FTR: I know Bluetooth Headset is not optimal for listening to TV or music but I would like to do it anyway.
I have multiple Bluetooth and none of them work for this purpose.

Working so far tyvm
I have the problem that I can listen to music with my A2DP BT Headset (Philips SHB9001), but if I start Youtube, a game or the internal video player the phone fails and plays the sound over the speaker.
Is there any posibility to "hack" the phone (or something like that) in order to get that working?
I deeply hope that one of you a solution
look here
You made my day ...did't find that. Guess I searched with the wrong search terms. THANK YOU! I'll try it asap
this is useful for me too thanks
a bit buggy
FYI: Playing YouTube videos it's a bit buggy (BT Headset makes some kind of squeaky sound, it's stuttering ... don't know how discribe it better), guess that's why MS disabled it by default.
But I'am happy to have it . If someone knows this bug, and even better how to fix it, I would be glad to know .
Maybe it's wifi that is interfering with bluetooth. At least I have the same behavior on HD2 with wifi on.
Hi
First i have to say is SORRY about my english. I'm learning and i don't want to use a translator.
I have a Nexus One connected to my handsfree on my car. I have a Ford Focus. Well when i try to listen some music on it, stock music player star to play and stop, start and stop anbd i don't know why.
I have flashed many times OxygenN1 mod and for all other things the rom is perfect but i don't know why do this.
I have to say to, if i try to play music with another app it starts to play normaly while stock player is playing on the buttom so this is imposible to listen anything.
Thanks for all.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks
All I can contribute is that I am having the same problem.
I am using a Bluetooth headset to listen to podcasts - this is one of those headsets that supports the A2DP profile for playing music etc., as well as the normal headset profile for phone calls. I don't have the problem when taking calls, just when listening to music/podasts so I suspect a problem with the A2DP profile implementation.
You are probably using that same profile in your car.
I wasn't sure if it was the phone or the headset that had the issue - sounds like it is probably the phone if you are having the same issue.
For the record, i have the AT&T/Rogers Canada version of the N1, with 2.3.6.
A couple things to begin troubleshooting:
1. Try using your phone with a different vehicle. It would be helpful to try pairing your phone with a different car's Bluetooth stereo, and see if it works properly (maybe a friend with a recent car?). If that works, then the problem is with the car stereo.
2. If you have a friends with other smartphones, try having them pair with and play music through your car stereo. Hopefully a pattern would emerge: maybe your exact ROM doesn't work, maybe it's a hardware quirk in your phone itself.
3. What media players do you have installed? I occasionally have conflicts between players fighting over the Bluetooth connection; Pandora and the stock player used to fight, but now they play nice. Notably Pandora has a section in its settings that tells it whether or not to take over Bluetooth controls. This sounds like it might be the reason for your second problem (if I understand you correctly).
4. You might also want to try a different firmware, maybe one that's either closer to stock or further. Maybe try the stock firmware first, then maybe MIUI.
5. What year and model is your Focus? Sometimes (rarely) there's a firmware update for the car stereo.
If the stock player is starting and stopping by itself: first try uninstalling all other media players and see if it still happens. If it does, it might be that the car stereo is sending pause keypresses, which it shouldn't. There might be a defective button on the stereo, or maybe a quirk in the stereo firmware.
Hopefully some of this helps narrow down the problem. Let us know if you get any results, hopefully we can help find the problem!

Are you using the headset for both podcasts/music and taking calls? Or using the headset for part of it, and another Bluetooth device for the other?
I just ask because I once tried leaving my voice-only earpiece for handsfree talking while listening to music over the car stereo. I had them "working" configuration-wise (the earpiece took only calls, music went only to the stereo), but after a little bit the phone would sort of melt down and lock up. It was probably running turn-by-turn Nav at the same time that did it, still it was cool while it worked
There are certainly bugs in the A2DP and AVRCP profiles, but I understand the implementation is kind of complex and there's a lot of corner case problems. Personally, our stereo displays the artist & album names, but always says "Paused", and the title and time info and just random numbers.
About the best you can do is try to isolate your specific problem, then try to find where to file a bug report. CM is probably the most responsive but most resource-strapped for fixing corner case problems, Google is at the other extreme and never really replies to bug reports. The stack itself is written by the BlueZ group (which I can't link, you'll have to Google); I've never tried submitting a bug report there, as I suspect they wouldn't be interested in hearing from a 3rd-party Android ROM user.
This might sounds odd, but try turning wifi off and see if that solves the problem.

try downloading ES Explorer (this has a player built in) browse to the audio files and select play in ES media/audio, I could get music to play through this but not the stock player because it would keep stoppping after a second or two.
