Hello,
since a week i am owner of the following bluetooth-devices:
ovislink bt-201usb (dongle)
ovislink stereo receiver bt-120ar
ovislink transmitter bt-120aj
I use slackware linux with a 2.4.26 kernel. All the modules for the
bluetooth where compiled.
I have installed the latest bluez-libs and -utils. Also is installed the
latest alsa-libs.
I start the bluetooth-system by a sehll-script:
#!/bin/bash
modprobe hci_usb
hcid
modprobe l2cap
modprobe bnep
modprobe sco
sdpd
hciconfig -a
The commands hcitool dev and hcitool scan detectt the dongle and the
stereo-receiver.
The output of
hcitools info 00:4F:62:05:53:8A
looks like this:

I have downloaded the btsco-0.4 package. The progs a2play, sbcenc rcfplay
compile correctly, also btsco and btsco2.
If i do a make in the /kernel directory, it appears a errormessage /lib/
modules/2.4.26/source cannot find such file. I can not find a kernelmodule
btsco.
The command
mpg123 --au - musik.mp3 | a2play 00:4F:62:05:53:8A -
produces no sound output only error message.
The command
mpg123 --au - musik.mp3 | sbcenc - | a2play 00:4F:62:05:53:8A -
produces sound, but it plays to fast.
I will be happy, if you can help me.
another question ist: Can i send output of mplayer to the stereo-receiver?
Best regards.
Dietmar

Difficult to explain, it sounds as you can hear the frames and betwenn the
frames is a litte dropout or beep.
I have no videodriver running, i only use linux on the console, becuase i
am blind. Only in the kernel is speakup integrated, so that i can use my
dolphin apollo hardwaresynthesizer, also i use brltty with a tieman voyger
braille display.

Can i compile a 2.6.x kernel, when a 2.4.x kernel works?

does it drop out for a second or so and come back? i was noticing that a
lot on a machine using nvidia drivers. i suspect they turn off
interrupts in their driver.

hcitool/sdptool is not how you make the mic work and it won't help with
dropouts.
your headset runs in two modes: 2-way mono and 1-way stereo. the btsco
app is for 2-way mono and a2play is for 1-way stereo. you can't run both
the mic and stereo simultaneously on any of the headsets out there.

Hello Brad,
hello list,
i have downloaded and installed btsco-0.41. I also have installed the rtc
module of the 2.4.26 kernel.
mpg123 --au - musik.mp3 | ./a2play -p 00:4F:62:05:53:8A
works, but after some seconds i can hear a dropout.
Wiht the 2.4.32 kernel the dropouts are also to hear.
Can or must i configure the headphone-profile with hcitool/sdptool, the
bt-120ar has an integrated microphon.
Regards.
Dietmar

Hello List,
hello Brad,
thanks for your infos. I have downloaded the btsco-04.41 release
./configure --enable-alsaplugin
make
and the package will compile.
mpg123 --au - musik.mp3 | ./a2play 00:4F:62:05:53:8A -
starts the connection and after a double-beep i can hear the music. But it
is not a continous stream. it sounds as the music stops and begins.
If i use the -p parameter for a2play, it comes a errormessage:
/dev/rtc open: no such device
and i can not hear anything.
Regards.
Dietmar

I released a 0.41 package today so we have a more modern baseline.

The kernel module isn't required for stereo/a2dp audio.

we may need to put your headset in the a2play list of noncompliant
devices. Marcel coded that stuff.

there is a hack to create an alsa plugin that simply writes to standard
out. then the client can be run with its output piped to a2play. it's a
rather gross workaround for our nonworking alsa plugin.
