The A2DP bluetooth profile allows high quality audio to be transferred from the phone.
This page describes how to setup A2DP on the Freerunner.
This information is mostly taken from this mail thread. It has been tested on FDOM, but should also work on 2008.12. I have not been able to get it working with FSO milestone 5.
First check that you have the correct package versions installed with grep blue. The versions should be these:
bluez-audio - 3.33-r3 bluez-utils - 3.33-r3 bluez-utils-alsa - 3.33-r3 bluez-utils-compat - 3.33-r3 libbluetooth2 - 3.33-r0
Your /etc/asound.conf should contain these:
pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "dmix" } ctl.mixer0 { type hw card 0 } pcm.bluetooth { type bluetooth device "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX" profile "auto" }
XX:XX:XX should be replaced with your device ID.
Turn on bluetooth in the GUI and then do
export DEVICE=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX /etc/init.d/bluetooth stop /etc/init.d/bluetooth start passkey-agent --default 0000 & dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez/hci0 org.bluez.Adapter.CreateBonding string:$DEVICE dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez org.bluez.Manager.ActivateService string:audio dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.bluez /org/bluez/audio org.bluez.audio.Manager.CreateDevice string:$DEVICE dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=org.bluez "/org/bluez/audio/device0" org.bluez.audio.Sink.Connect
If the last step fails, see to it that the device returned in the step before is device0 - otherwise use the other number.
To play a file with mplayer use the following command:
mplayer -ao alsa:device=bluetooth /path/to/file.ogg
