Alsa headset with MPlayer

Hi All,
I've got workin' fine the BT headset with the last kernel 2.6.23 patched with sco-flowcontrol-v4.3.diff included in the plugz bluetooth alsa cvs repository and aplay/arecord, xmms, Rhythmbox and Skype too works fine. The problem now is mplayer.

As I give the command " mplayer -ao alsa:device=headset " it stucks as here:

Starting playback...
A: 0.0 (00.0) of 226.0 (03:46.0) ??,?% 98%

and it doesn't start to play.

The headset string is the one I used in my $HOME/.asoundrc file as the following:

pcm.headset {
        type plug
        slave {
                pcm "headsetBT"
                rate 8000
                format S16_LE
                channels 1
        }
}

pcm.headsetBT {
@args [BDADDR TIMEOUT]

# The Bluetooth device address for target headset, used for
Audio Gateway (PC) initiated connections
# Please note that this value is ignored when the connection is
Headset initiated

        @args.BDADDR {
                type string
                default "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX"
        }

        # This value represents how long we will try to reach the
headset, until we give up.
        # Value is in milliseconds
        @args.TIMEOUT {
                type integer
                default 6000
        }

        type        sco
        bdaddr      $BDADDR
        timeout     $TIMEOUT
}

ctl.headset {
type sco
}

Do anyone know anything about it ? MPlayer could work with the bt alsa headset, right? Maybe I wrong something?

Let me know please.

Thanks.

Advhertz.

Hi

The patch is still valid, but you should be trying the audio service in the current bluez-utils, especially if you have bugs to report, suggestions, etc. http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/AudioDevices
