I am trying to resist the temptation of getting a video iPod or even the new SE990i, since my BA (Orange M2000) is well capable of playing videos and MP3. And I am quite happy with it as an organizer and its communication capabilities. I was wondering for those that have turned your BA into a portable multimedia machine, if you could give me some pointers on:
1) What software you use to convert videos into a capable format for playing on the BA.
2) I have researched the bluetooth wireless stereo headsets for the PDA2k, and hacen't found any satisfactory solution. I have upgraded my BA with the latest bluetooth stack, which now supports A2DP. Do you own any headset that you would recommend?

Has anyone figured out how to get audio to play on bluetooth headsets like when using voice command or media player the way you can on HP 6315.
Without this capability, it makes hands free almost useless.
Is this a broadcomm/wincomm situation or Windows 2003 vs 2003SE
I own a Bluetooth Motorola headset HS810.
I also own:
- a MDA compact
- a MDA III and
- a XDA II
I see that recently someone was able to USE BLUETOOTH NOT ONLY for receiving phone calls, but also for listening to MP3 and other sounds or musics (via Windows Media Player).
My GOAL IS TO USE my BT headset and HAVE THE SAME QUALITY THAT I CURRENTLY HAVE USING STANDARD HEADPHONES.
Now what about quality? I heard about ADSP, a new bluetooth stack which allow much higher sound quality, quasi-stereo quality.
My questions are:
1. can somebody please summarize what is the current development status? Can somebody clarify this subject to unprofessional and amateur users like me who are eager to use BT headsets and listen to MP3 (not only pick up phone calls)?
2. If this new BT stack (widcomm or toshiba or microsoft ?) is already available, then in which units can be implemented? MDA compact? XDA II? MDA III?
3. Supposing this new BT stack already exists and it enables Windows Media (or similar applications) to stream sound for BT heeadsets, THEN can I get “quasi Hi-Fi” sound quality with my current Bluetooth Motorola headset HS810 or shall I need a replacement, a better BT headset a new generation one?
Thanks for your kind suggestions

Hi,
I followed all the instructions on adding a2dp to my ppc, I upgraded the rom,etc and ran the tornado thing. My 8125 sees the headphones and has the wireless stereo service, however, it does not actually connect to them as they even after I find the headphones theyt are still in discovery mode. Any ideas anyone.
I have exactly the same problem. I'll post the solution when I figure it out. I phoned iogear and they told me to set my 8125 to send the audio to the headphones instead of the speaker. Not helpful.
solution found
upgrade to the latest beta rom 225 and it should fix it
Sending all audio over bluetooth
Had similar problem when trying to send music from phone to the headphones. Found the tool, see attached, that has three small programs. There is a bit that has to be changed to tell the device to send all audio to the headphones, otherwise it just does it for phone calls.
The BTAudioOn forces the bit on. BTAudioOff forces the bit off. Just put them onto your device and run them directly. There is a also a toggle program, but it isn't intelligent. It does not query the system and toggle, but instead has its own tracker which gets out of synch.
Hope this helps. My apologies for not crediting the creator of the program, but I believe I found it at Microsoft's site.
Audio quality was very poor due to bluetooth on device. I tested with very old Cingular ROM. Have not tested with the latest 2.25 Cingular ROM to see if there is any improvement. Used Motorola's Stereo Bluetooth headset and also iPhone Stereo Headset with similar results.
Hello,
I just got an AT&T 8525 for about two weeks. Thanks to the contributors of this community I have my phone setup such that it can do almost anything my laptop can do (other than CAD...).
Anyway, I have been running orb live tv or videos smoothly but when I tried to use my bluetooth A2DP headphones while running orb, the video is very choppy...
I already done some search on this forum but nothing came up. I don't have audio stuttering issue, just video stuttering.
Does anyone know any special setting on TCPMP or bluetooth that can help me out with this issue?
I'm running VP3G's v3.0 WM6 and the bitpool on A2DP is set to 48 (but I'd tried all other setting already)...
Thanks,
I realize that the demand for this may not be too high since the audio quality of HFP is of very low quality compared to A2DP, but I still want to do it!
As I understand it, the UConnect (Dodge Magnum) system will only accept HFP (Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile 0.96 or higher) as a source. My phone (Sprint HTC Touch Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro) can do just about every Bluetooth standard needed to transmit audio. It is already paired with the UC system and works flawlessly - even displaying battery and signal levels.
I have been scouring Google looking for a "HFP Emulator" or something that will allow my Windows Mobile phone transmit audio from WMP or TCPMP (streaming Internet radio or Orb broadcasts from my PC) using the HFP flag so that UConnect will think that it is a phone call I'm listening to. It doesn't seem as though this should be so difficult...
I don't have a physical audio input in my car or anything. I'm really just curious if there is a Windows Mobile hack/application that will do this or any other method you know of?
