http://ubuntuforums.org – I have my laptop running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS connected via builtin wifi. I bought a USB bluetooth adaptor and reroute the audio to a bluetooth receiver for my computer speakers. But when I play streaming music from Youtube or Pandora, the bluetooth degrades the wifi bandwidth so much that streaming is impossible due to constant pausing to buffer the audio. Streaming music works perfectly if I either switch audio to the headphone jack (making bluetooth unnecessary although it's still enabled), or if I plug in a cat5 ethernet cable (making wifi unnecessary although still enabled). This pheneme (Hardware)

Hi everyone, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum (I'm new here). I had flashed my Samsung Focus 1.3 with the Clean Rom 3.05 (WP 7.8) yesterday without any issues. However, today when I tried streaming music to the car using Bluetooth, I noticed some sound distortion.

I've been looking at ways to wirelessly stream music from my laptop to my hifi amp. Many of the wifi solutions work out quite expensive. I came across this, which so far the seems the cheapest and easiest way, using bluetooth with a Belkin Bluetooth Music receiver.

Bluetooth Audio Streaming 34 weeks 3 days ago

Hello

I'm looking to upgrade my Droid Charge to a Galaxy Nexus, and the primary reason I want to do so is to get rid of one annoying problem from my Charge: skipping audio playback over bluetooth, when connected to my car stereo.

Looking for a bluetooth fm transmitter that will play music through my fm station, but also be able to play app sounds and be able to take phone call audio.

Any suggestions?

The iSimple Bluetooth enabled, application controlled, FM or analog audio transmitter For Android Devices. Is similar to what I am looking for, but it cannot transmit phone cal audio.

Link to example.

I turn on Bluetooth on both my devices and open up Music on my Android. I select a song to play, press the menu button, and tap "Via Bluetooth":

I tap on my computer in the "Bluetooth Device Picker":

Then it says, under the name of my computer:

Now I should technically be able to play music through my computer, since it "Just Worked" in Kubuntu with Blueman.

I have an Australian 2012 FG MK2 Falcon with integrated Bluetooth. I have paired my unrooted (v4.04) Samsung Galaxy 3 with the car and enabled audio streaming. When the car links to the phone I need to select bluetooth audio then it always starts the standard Music Player and displays the song titles as they are being played.

The problem with the standard Music Player is that it plays everyth

I recently installed an Alpine CDE 133BT deck into my car so that I could stream music over bluetooth and charge my phone via the USB port on the front of the deck.
