[Q] Bluetooth playback control - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I connect my stereo BT headset to my Android 4.2.2 phone (SGS4 if it makes any difference). Is there a way to control which media player is being controlled by my headset? E.g.: how can I control which media player starts playback when pressing the headset play button?
Thanks!

Volume Control for HBH-IS800

hi
i just bougth a bluetooth stereo headset hbh-is800. it works great in handsfree mode to call, but if i use it as stereo headset to listen to music i am unable to change the volume. it always keeps at a very silent level. is there a way to change the bt audio volume on windows mobile?
i also tried coreplayer, but it is still very silent.
thanks
Does it do the same thing on a wired headset? Also, have you checked in HD Tweak or Advanced Config to see if the volume / dB limit is raised to 100?
no, it the wired headset works perfectly. the bluetooth stereo headset has no volume control, it depends on the mobile to adjust the volume. but the bluetooth volume is not changed if i change the volume on the mobile. it always keeps very low. i will check on the two tools you recommend.
thanks
david
any information on this???

Podcast/media players and headset controls

I listen to alot of podcasts (using either BeyondPod or Pocket Casts), and would like to control playback using headset remote controls - e.g. the play/pause button on a Sony MW-600 bluetooth remote, or the same on a Klipsch S4A headset. The problem is that headset controls like these usually fire up the default media player (PlayerPro in my case), rather than controlling the Podcast player (e.g. BeyondPod).
I could theoretically configure BeyondPod to use the standard Android media player instead of its built-in media player, but then I would lose the enormous benefit of it remembering where I left off when I pause a Podcast at the end of a journey.
Has anyone here worked out a good way of controlling a Podcast player using a headset remote?
Doesn't have PlayerPro an option to disable headset interaction?
In PowerAMP for example you can toggle if you want to handle handset commands or not, giving the chance to be handled by another app.

Yes I've discovered the option in PlayerPro to disable the headset control. Now I can control the volume using the headset controls in BeyondPod, but none of the other buttons are functional (on either the Sony MW-600 or the Klipsch S4A).
Has anyone here managed to get headset playback controls with BeyondPod?
Disconnecting audio controls from default music app
Hi,
I use my bluetooth headset mostly for listening to Audible and Google Listen.
Media controls automatically invoke default music player, and control it. Only volume controls work in other players.
Is there a way to associate a different player with the bluetooth media controls (stop/start/skip)?
I am using hydrog3n ICS on a Galaxy Sii, but I believe this is a generic issue.

[Q] Bluetooth media audio disable?

Every time I turn on my bluetooth headset, both the phone audio and the media audio get routed to the headset. I want to keep the phone audio through the headset, and the music through the aux-out to the car stereo.
Every time I disable the profile for media audio on bluetooth, it reverts back when I re-enable it.
Any ideas?

I got a bluetooth jabra headset, but i can't control the media player from it, how?

How can i make it to control the media player? Is there any solution? Thank you!
