Greetings I try playing music via the Itech bluetooth capable headphone, (not headset) I have successfully paired it and all, i also had set it to stereo mode, here comes the problem, when i try to play via the player all i would hear is the start of the music maybe for 1.5 seconds then... nothing, music continues to play on the phone but there is no sound coming from the phone nor the headphones. I already tried different ROMS but to no avail same result so i am thinking it is not the ROMS I tried the tomal and lucathebig ROMS, I am stuck i don't know how I could do this help please? thanks.
I am quite sure that my bluetooth is not broken since I could pair with the pc and also the headphones
ok, I tried to switch off the bluetooth headphones while the music was playing and the music continues to play on the uni's speakers, so it means that the music is playing only it is not streaming to the headphones. Any help or idea will be appreciated
When I start my car the bluetooth connects to the stereo for phone audio but it won't remember my setting to connect to media audio. I have to manually go into the settings every time and check the media audio button. I am using a rooted stock rom and have an i9500 and I also had the problem before rooting. I know it isn't my stereo because my previous phone (Galaxy Nexus) worked just fine. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be done to fix this other than Samsung putting out a fix for it?
Hi,
Since upgrading to version 4.3 i'm unable to stream audio via bluetooth to my car headset using youtube and other music apps, the only one thats able to stream music to my car stereo is "google music", phone speaker through the car stereo works, and handsfree buttons as well.
The problem occurred only after upgrading from 4.2.2, it's not working on my wife N4 as well, so it's not just my phone having this problem.
using stock 4.3 and also tried CM 10.2 but that didn't help as well,
hope some one can give me a hint on how to fix this.... thanks!
Hi!!
I recently upgraded to CM11 with my defy and I noticed some audio stutters using Bluetooth audio. It's like random stutters with Bluetooth and it's like losing its connection. I tried other ROms like slimkat and it's still the same. I'm currently using poweramp with DVC disabled also the stock audio player still having this issue. I tried playing with different governors and IO and I still can't get rid of the Bluetooth issue.
Is there any workarounds for the Bluetooth? I'm using a rapoo bt headset and a sony mw600 headset. Both of them have the same issue.
Thanks in advanced,
Does the Nexus Player support Bluetooth audio? I'm designing an HTPC for my folks and I'd like to go as cordless as possible. The speakers are across the room and are Bluetooth-capable.
Has anyone tried BT audio with the Player?

I tried Some headphones jabra revo and could not get them to show up when discovering
I tried with the Vamp and could not get that to show up when discovering either. I was hoping to do something similar, really hope this can be added with a firmware update or custom rom.
Couldn't get my bt skullcandys to connect either
Same here, cant find my logitech bluetooth audio receiver. This is huge disapointment but i hope google hears us and can fix this with an update.
Pairing Successful!
I found a workaround to pair my LG HBS-830 since doing a regular bluetooth search in the nexus player doesn't detect any headphones.. However, I'm now looking for another workaround to actually route the audio to the headphones!
To pair your headphones, just install ES File Explorer, and when you open it, there is an option to use bluetooth to connect to other devices in order to transfer files. However, when you do a scan for devices, the headphones actually show up (when set in pairing mode), and by clicking on it, it will automatically pair and appear in the nexus player's list of paired bluetooth devices.
By switching your headphones off/on, it automatically connects to your nexus player and even shows connected under the list of bluetooth devices, however no audio is routed to the headphones by default.. it is still routed to TV speakers.
So here you go, pairing is done.. let's now try to route audio to those headphones!
Hope this helps!

There is an app I use on my phone which may fix this problem. It's called Sound About Pro. It allows you to route your audio to different places... Like blue tooth or Handset Speakers or Headphones.

I just installed SoundAbout on my nexus player.. I tried routing the media audio to my connected A2DP Bluetooth headset, but unfortunately I'm not getting any sound
Besides, the application is throwing some exception every time it's started.. maybe this is the reason..
I literally just hooked my player up for the first time and the very first thing I tried to do was connect my jaybird x headphones to it and they won't connect. I just assumed since the box had bluetooth and was an android device that it would support bluetooth audio. My quick search just now has revealed there is no bluetooth audio function enabled :crying: I got this explicitly for this function, so this is useless until someone finds a work around or google enables it. Anyone want to buy a brand new N player from me?
I'd try this trick from the FireTV forum but don't have the time right now.

Sideloaded and tried it. It opens and appears to show normal settings, but crashes when I click anything. I'll keep trying things but so far I haven't been able to get this or ES File Explorer method to work :/

ES File Explorer can only pair your A2DP bluetooth headphones with the nexus player.. Make sure you set your headphones in pairing mode before you do a scan for bluetooth devices.. Once found, just click on it and that's it, pairing will be made immediately.

Okay so, I found out that the current SoundAbout released on the Google Play Store is still not compatible with Android 5.0. However, they added the support for that in the latest beta version. I'm unable to post the link, so just search for "SoundAbout beta" and you will get it from their official user board.
I tried sideloading the beta app on the nexus player.. Good thing: no more exceptions showing up.. Bad thing, still unable to route audio to headphones even when forcing media audio to use A2DP bluetooth.. plus, playing videos like youtube simply fails!
I tried that SoundAbout app too - but no luck.
I can't believe they don't support Bluetooth headphones. The only reason I was still using the Roku 3 is because the remote has a audio jack. I thought I could use the Nexus Player with Bluetooth headphones :/
Android M has got native support for A2DP Bluetooth streaming. You can flash the developer preview right now or wait for the release version in October/November. I wish Lollipop had this feature for AndroidTV to start with.
Yeah, same here, bought this device to be used with bt soundbar and projector ... all wireless ... can't believe this isn't working. Any tweaks ?

Just updated my Nexus Player to Android M (Preview), and it works perfectly with my Jabra Move Wireless headset now ^^
So realistically I could just send the audio to my phone and use regular jack headphones

And how would you do that?
EDIT: Updating to the Preview of Android M now. I need to use Bluetooth audio...
EDIT2: Bluetooth audio works on the Preview but still too buggy. The apps I use crash. I guess I'll have to wait for the final stable release.
Nexus player control volume from external remote
What about to control the volume with external remote control that have the volume buttons?
