Is there a way to set Windows Mobile Media Player v10 to play through my  
bluetooth earpiece? I have an Audiovox SMT5600

Unless you have something other than a standard bluetooth earpiece I think  
you find the music quality to be somewhere between "poor" and "unbearable",  
given the typically low audio rates for these devices. The exception to this  
is the A2DP bluetooth high-performance profile, which actually sounds quite  
nice.
 
With that stated, you need to install the correct BT profile for your  
headset for it to work properly.  This should be available from the earpiece  
manufacturer.   Note that some profiles will not support music (perhaps due  
to the low bitrate) and will not work in this way.  If you do have the  
bluetooth earpiece working and this is the case then there is little that  
can be done short of a different headset.  There are some more generic  
profiles for BT headsets that may work fine, but these are not always  
functional on the various equipment.

In contrast to xTenns comments, it doesn't seem like what you want is  
possible. For whatever reason it appears that not all sound is routed to the  
headset when you pair it with a smartphone. It seems to only route audio to  
the BT connection once a call is in progress. That's how it works on both my  
MPX220 and my SMT5600. By contrast, if I pair a BT headset with my PPC  
(x50v) and connect, everything that would have gone to the speaker goes to  
the headset.

True, I was speaking in relation to PPC, not smartphone.   Good catch, I  
should have deeper.

Interestingly enough I ran across a thing called BlueTune 1.0 on the Modaco  
downloads listings. It is supposed to add the ability to hear media player  
output off of a smartphone through a BT headset. Some post said it didn't  
work on an MPX220, but I don't know what it does work on and haven't tried  
it myself. Maybe someone is breaking the code. After 5 years someone finally  
is providing the ability to use the memory slots in a PPC as a USB reader  
without AS, and they said it couldn't be done.

Hey peeps:
It's called bluetunes and is indeed avail. on modaco.com. I'm using it on an  
Orange SPV550. After activating bluetunes on your phone, you may still have  
to press your "take call" button on your headset. If the voice response  
screen pops up, deactivate then reactiveate bluetunes. Then it should work  
fine.
 
Also, the sound quality is really fine. I had no quality problems! Look for  
a full review on http://www.HomeGear.com
 
ciao
