can i use mw600 with laptops bluetoooth?

i.e all the music i play on my laptop..is streamed to mw600..which outputs it to connected headset.


so i can walk around and listen to music from my laptop in my room

Yes, all you have to do is pair it, and Windows should automatically connect and send audio through it. If it doesn't, just right click on the Bluetooth Devic and select "Control" - you should get a dialogue window where you can click "Connect." I use it all the time at work... fantastic!

Notice you won't get track names in the MW600 when playing songs from Windows, as it happens with X10.

It does that at all?
It doesn't for me, yet I'm using mediascape and this headset.
It never showed me anything else than the SE logo and volume level.

EDIT:
After googling around on this, I've found out that the ID3 tags via Bluetooth are not supported by Android OS at the time being.

Quote from SE Team's Facebook:

Sony Ericsson Hi All,

Here is the update:

1. ID3 information requires the AVRCP 1.4 in order to be displayed on the MW600. Therefore the ID3 tags will not appear on the MW600 when paired with an X10.

2. X10 doesn’t support FF/RW function.

All other functions should be as normal. The "start playback" issue experienced by Stefan shouldn't occur, this may be specific with your headset, can you test with another X10 at a store location?

As for you Tord, are you pressing and holding the power button until the pairing indicator appears? You should then be able to search for the headset via your phone. Let me know.

I am using ubuntu to connect to mw600. It connects without hitch.
but is giving mono output.
can someone using windows please tell me if they can hear stereo sound?

I use my MW600 with multiple computers (my work laptop HP 8540W and my home computer) and stereo bluetooth works just fine. As does using it as a headset for skype.

For ubuntu you may have to find a different driver for bluetooth or make sure your device/drivers support AD2P.

I have it is nicee

Unable to play songs on MW600 from my laptop

Hello Folks,

I have been trying to stream music from my laptop onto MW600 headset, but for some reason the music always escapes through the laptop speakers..!

I think I am already in love with this device, only that I am not able to use it to its fullest.

Also, if anyone can guide if this may work with Skype ? what is it differently that I may have to do to configure my MW600 to it ?

OS Platform : Windows XP Pro.

PS : I am not being able to figure out where the control option on the Bluetooth in the PC comes on.

Appreciating your help.

Regards
