Audio Out Redirection for Bluetooth Headphones

[observer_11]

I have to restart PVRX2 whenever I want to use my bluetooth headphones to redirect the audio from my receiver to the headphones and similarly restart again when I am done with the headphones. I wish my HTPC would just auto-magically redirect audio whenever I turn the bluetooth headphones on or off. I know this is not a GBPVR specific issue, but I was not sure where on the net to look for a solution, any suggestions? I am using the BlueSoleil bluetooth software btw.

that software might be the problem...it's really buggy...
there's actually a MS stack for bluetooth that works on almost every card i've tried it on...
it just adds your device to the built-in bluetooth stack driver as it doesn't include many devices, but i believe that's just cuz it was made a long time ago..

here's a link to the installer for generic bt adapters, it modifies ms stack to enable your hardware for it...just adds the device id to it really..

it really is more stable than blue soliel...

i'm not sure what os's it'll work on, but i've tested on xp..
seems they are actively developing and updating it..

Thanks for the info and link, I'm going to give it a try.

Just to follow-up with what happened. The MS bluetooth stack would not recognize my cheap-@ss bluetooth adapter , so no-go on the built-in bluetooth stack (but was worth a try - thanx for the suggestion). Ultimately I did resolve the issue with a more recent version of BlueSoleil, however the jury is still out on whether bluetooth technology is good enough in general for audio from my PC. Audio still seems to cut out intermittently,the range is not the best, and the biggest issue is AV sync (too laggy!).
