Bluetooth Reg. tweak?

[robquick]

Hi,

I found this reg tweak which looks good however, I have a couple of questions before I go ahead with it.


I already have a "bitpool" value of 30. Can I just change this too say 48? Or do I have to add another dword?

What exactly does this tweak improve.....is it the quality of sound that I will hear from my handfree in my car???


Improve BT A2DP sound quality

[HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings]
Add new dword, Value name=BitPool; Value data=48 (Decimal)
Modify, Value name=UseJointStereo; Value data=0 (Decimal, Originally 1)

For BitPool:
Microsoft suggests the following bitpool values for optimal buffer sizes.
30 - Low audio quality
40 - Medium audio quality
48 - High audio quality
58 - Excellent audio quality
Chose one you like. I think 48 is good enough.

For UseJointStereo: use 0 instead of 1, then you got the real stereo.

you change the current dword. it willl assign more memory / processing power to the application... why are you changing it?

in music apps there is a buffer size which is a happy medium between quality of sound vs latency...

you can probably push it to the max, but you may find that your phone degrades in usability / the amount of time it actually takes to hear / respond.

change it, soft reset and test... if you notice no problems then great, if you get glitches then change it back. i doubt you will get any problems you cant get out of, but its good practice to run a backup of the registry before you do any changes just in case!

better to be safe than sorry!!!
