[Bluez-users] support for a2dp device

[Ottavio Campana]

I'd like to buy this headphone

http://www.heliumdigital.com/shopping/shopexd.asp?id=65

I read this page

http://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/build.html

and I wasn't able to understand how good the support of Linux is.

Can I use both the speakers and microphone? I'd like to use it with
twinkle, a voip client, and therefore I need bidirectional audio.

Does anyone of you have experience with this kind of devices?

Thank you.

PS: can you CC: me, please?

they look nice. Some people have had problems with the solid
around-the-back design cracking in the middle. The set ends up being
more durable if they have a folding point in the middle. The bluespoon
spider has that but the mic is not very sensitive so it only works in
quiet environments.

I improved the docs for this question. Yes, you can use sco mode to do
mono sound with speaker/mic. We are still working on nice integration
with the voip apps though so answering, redial, etc are not working from
the headset.
