Bluetooth transmitters?
Hello List,
Is anyone using a Bluetooth transmitter with the VR Stream or other device without Bluetooth?? I ask as I am so pained and generally peed off with BBC local radio stream being denied to us while the olympics is still on.? I can get some of the local radio streams on an internet radio in my kitchen but I would like to be able to? get that radio/s output fed into a Bluetooth transmitter so I can listen on my Bose Mini Soundlink in other rooms, hence my question. A model of Bluetooth transmitter and where you got it would be much appreciated. I only hope the forthcoming replacement for the Trek will enable us to play the high quality BBC local radio stream which are bypassing the olympics blocking of lower quality local radio stream compatible with the VR Stream and Trek so I can have my local radio back again! Ray. |

Ok unfortunately the bluetooth transmitter receiver I got is no longer available on amazon, but if you just hang fire, I'll see what I can find for you. There are loads out there and most will work on the stream as long as they have a 3.5 mm jack plug. I use mind to listen to my stream with a small soundbar I got. I think you want to stream to other devices in the house, I don't know the bows gadgets, is it speakers or what? Regards Adrien -----Original Message-----

Hi Adrian,? Yes, I am familiar with how these little Bluetooth transmitters work and I did have one a long time ago which I gave away.

It would be good to get one that can be transmit while it is being charged.? I think some of them do not work while they are being charged. Ray. On 08/08/2021 01:32 pm, adrien collins wrote:

The one I have you can plug it in to charge it, I keep it plugged in all the time, it cann connect to my stream for example, I think there is a second 3.5 mm jack socket, but it isn't available now. I have put a link below, that looks ok, I don't know what you want to spend, I don't go below 4 out of 5, you only get what you pay for. apter/dp/B094QR2X94/ref=sr_1_10?dchild=1&keywords=bluetooth+transmitter&qid= 1628425663&sr=8-10 Regards Adrien -----Original Message-----

Hi Ray,
Yes, I've used a blue tooth transmitter with my Stream and it works very well indeed. It's a Taotronics model which cost about thirty pounds from Amazon. Sorry but I can't remember the actual model number but it has a 24 hour battery life so that might help you to find it. Let me know if I can be of any more help. Cheers, Sandra. |
Thanks for responses to my question so far.

Sandra, can you tell me if the one you mention can charge and transmit at the same time?? Obviously the long running time is good as you may well be using something like the Stream away from home and want a long life from the battery. On 08/08/2021 04:04 pm, Sandra Henshall via groups.io wrote:
