[Bluez-users] Streaming xmms to a bluetooth headset

[Parakram Khandpur]

Dear all
This ones for personal use. I want to stream xmms output via a usb 
bluetooth dongle to a bluetooth headset.
Kindly let me know what do i need to do to get this to work on a 2.6 
series linux kernel and also are there any headsets with which such 
stuff is known to work w/o much trouble.

My experience with bluez: I have used bluetooth devices  that use bluez 
stack for providing basic network connectivity. For example, I took two 
machines which had usb bluetooth dongles attached to them and I could 
run the regular client-server apps between them like ssh'ing from one to 
the other etc. But i dont have any experience with the profiles.

Kindly cc ur response to parakram AT gmail DOT com as i am not 
subscribed to this list.

Thanks

Parakram,

Do you want it to sound good? You'll need an a2dp stereo headset like 
the hp or the itech clip s.

xmms can currently play voice quality to most mono headsets but the 
software to make any sound app work with stereo is not finished.
