Reply-To: BlueZ development List-Id: BlueZ development List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: bluez-devel-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net Errors-To: bluez-devel-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net TLDR Summary: BTSCO works fine, but I only have AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and Loopback options in alsamixer. There's no way I can mute the microphone, which I want to do when I press the headset button. Is this because my headset doesn't support muting, or are these extra features all software based? Long story version. So, I've gotten a bluetooth headset, it works fine. I can talk and hear people fine over Skype. What I want to do, however, is use it for things like Ventrilo and Teamspeak. These programs are different in that you don't want everything you say to go through the mic. People generally use a key to switch voice-transmit on and off. What I wanted to was use the button on the headset to do this. I can set the program to continuously transmit, and then just mute/unmute the microphone via alsa. This works on regular headsets connected to my soundcard. But alsamixer doesn't let me mute the microphone (and changing volume settings does nothing). Is this because my headset doesn't support these features, or is all of this done in software. BTSCO v0.42, using a Nextlink AX2 (review @ http://www.engadget.com/2005/11/07/nextlink-bluespoon-ax2-reviewed-4-5-stars/ and a google search lists many more reviews). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
