[2009.07.01 Updated] - AutoA2DP - The smallest A2DP Toggle application

[xiaojin1985]

Hi all.
I found that when we connect a paired Bluetooth Headset with WM it will set as Handsfree by default,but not A2DP Wireless Stereo,we have to set it manually,that is a little annoying work,so I write this small application to do this.

-WM5/WM6 Supported.
-No TSR(terminate-and-stay-resident),no Background running process
-Developed in C,fast execute speed and small file size(5KB with signature)

Learn About "AutoA2DP.ini"
AutoA2DP.ini is a text file which used to point out an application that AutoA2DP will launch after A2DP Mode toggled.

This file must local in \Windows folder,it is an one-line text,for example:

wmplayer.exe

Means that AutoA2DP will launch wmplayer.exe after BTH Headset paired.

You can edit this line with other application,for example,to launch TCPMP,you can replace words with this line:
\Storage Card\TCPMP\PLAYER.EXE

If you want launch nothing,you can delete AutoA2DP.ini


Update log:
The "Semi-Auto" version released.
Download AutoA2DP_with_Confirm.zip if you want to confirm manual(After 30 seconds it will quit as "Cancel" in silent).
The another version will set to A2DP mode automaticlly.


Installation:
1.Copy AutoA2DP.exe to \Windows folder
2.If you want it launch application automaticlly,edit text file "AutoA2DP.ini" to write your application file name(e.g,wmplayer.exe) and copy it to \Windows folder.
3.Run it,or run install.lnk instead,it will install in silent,NO MSG SHOW,after that you will find [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Notifications\AutoA2DP_b y_xiaojin1985] entry in Registry.



Usage:
Open a paired Bluetooth Headset in range,it will toggle to A2DP mode automaticlly,you can see that musical icon appear in Titlebar.


Uninstallation:
Run AutoA2DP.exe with parameter "-u"(AutoA2DP.exe -u),or run uninstall.lnk instead.


Enjoy!

oops...I tested it with WM6.1,Cotulla's ROM,Magician.

Here are 2 debug app for you.

First pair your BTH headset and run CheckConnected.exe,a Message Box will show out to tell you current status,what it say?"Nothing"/"Handsfree Connected"/"A2DP Connected"?

Second,set your BTH headset as Wireless Stereo,run CheckConnected.exe again,what it say now?

Third,run ToggleA2DP.exe,can it switch your BTH headset between Wireless Stereo and Handsfree?

I don't have WM6.5 environment so I don't know whether the bth_sign is changed or not...

[Oweida]

how can I pair it to be wirless connected

Anyhow ,, I'm using BTaudio , it's a manual app to get stereo work !
But I need you to help me in making the sound voume loader i,e, how can I raise the sound volume for my BT headset ?!

First off thank you. This was a serious issue for me when using all WM's up to 6.1. Since I've used 6.5 my AD2P has connected automatically.
