Stream music from computer to phone

Is there a program that I can use to stream music from my computer to my 8125 using GPRS and WiFi? I would like to listen to it everywhere without buying 15 cards.

http://www.orb.com/

i have even successfully streamed audio using Orb over gprs! lucky i have free gprs!

another vote for Orb.
It makes it simple to stream music and videos to your phone.

Mercora M has performed better for me. It costs, but if you go to Microsoft.com you can get a 6 month free trial. It includes internet radio too.

I'm going to try Mercora M because Orb wasn't letting me stream over GPRS for some reason.
I get the "session not valid" message.
I'ma try Mercora M and get back to ya.

I would totally say go with Orb. If your GPRS is not letting you connect, I would suggest trying with a different Mobile Browser (for example, Opera worked for me where Pocket IE did not).
Just a thought

i love orb... dont us GPRS b/c its not free for me.. but i use wifi and I even stream TV from my ati 550 pcie tuner cards in my media server..
i love watching baseball on my 8125

I could never get Orb to go over GPRS. I'm sure it works great on Wifi. I also had trouble getting it to fidn my removable hard drive (all my music is on that). I gave up, downloaded Mecora M and it works great. It's sad that it costs money but I'm hoping someone out there will help me with that...

For wi-fi i use resco explorer to stream music and video. All i do is share my folders and network map my drives in resco. Install tcmp and it will even play divx! Music is not a problem either works a dream. Next i will look into streaming over GPRS but not sure my t-mobile connection is reliable enough.

Using your PPC as a wireless headset for PC possible??

I've been scouring google trying to look for something that works like this:
1) ALL audio from your computer is streamed to your PPC.
AND
2) You can use your PPC as a wireless mic for your computer.
In essence it'll work as a wireless voice communicator with your laptop. Is there anyway to do this? I've tried using bluetooth, but the computer software I have wouldn't allow me to use my phone as a 'headset' only to transfer files and create a DUN. So if anyone know of any computer software or PPC software that would help me achieve this, it would be greatly appreciated. It could be through BT, WiFi or Data. I just need something that works.
My purpose for this is that I like to play games, listen to music, and even voice chat (ventrilo) and I would like to be able to still hear what's going on on my computer while I'm grabbing a glass of water or taking a bio-break.

Found a method that works, but it in very poor quality. First thing is to install Skype .18 beta onto your phone (only version that works on the Titan) and to install Skype on your computer also. You will need to create 2 accounts for both the phone Skype & PC Skype. Now configure your computer Skype to reroute all audio to go through the microphone input. Call either devices from the other device and initiate voice chat. You should be able to hear your computer from your phone, but in very low/poor quality. When you speak into the phone you can hear yourself on your computer. A headset is suggested.
This is what I found to work so far, still trying to search for a better way of doing this. I've been able to stream quality music from the computer and voice to the computer, but never both at the same time yet.
Here's link to Skype .18 beta:

I'd like to know if it's possible as well...for some reason my speakers arent being recognized by windows (i freaking hate MS!!) so it'd be nice to use BT to use my phone as speakers (that and so i could wander around the house)

if it support audio gateway it could work of cause
to enable it one would have to quit the game
and change pref'd device in audio settings in pc
control panel and restart the game

audio gateway would mean to go through BT. I'm sure the titan is able but its the bt software on the computer end that's crappy (got my bt adapter for $4). I'm looking for alternatives if possible.

i paid a few pretty pennies for my BT device (it wasn't overly expensive, it was a good deal at the time), and it came with a disc that had blue soleil on it. Well, it kept telling me i needed to register or somthing, but wouldnt let me. So i got rid of it. I bet B.Soleil would work though, maybe i'll dig it back up.
found all of my original documentation and disks with B.S. on it. They gave me a trial version. I paid for a usb dongle with blue tooth and B.S. gave me an eval copy. Okay, no wonder people hack/crack stuff. Idiots like that. I hope they die in a fire.

lol yea i think mine is blue soleil too, not sure if its a full copy or eval copy. all i know is its crap and won't let me do what i want.

yeah, i smashed my blue soliel disk out of anger. i tried it first, and it wouldnt let me stream music to my headset or my phone, so whatever. I dont even need that program to transfer files, i have BT drivers on my computer already.

well if you do manage to find a working BT software be sure to share ;D

Really?...

I'd made a thread about how I'd wanted to dev, or asking if anyone knew of a prog to do this. What s/w d'ya know of/recommend?

he's LOOKING for an app that does it.

I'm trying to look into a A2DP server solution, though I doubt it's possible for the PPC to 'serve' audio to the computer.

[Q] Is there a streaming radio app like Tune In on Android?

I am trying to connect my old Touch Pro 2 up to some computer speakers and just use it as an internet radio at my desk. Does anyone know a good WM app for that?

SPBradio, coreplayer streams too but you have to go threw a little trouble to set it up but SPB radio is your best bet

pandora
pandora is a fantastic music device..and thanks to all the awesome developers at xda we are able to have it...here it should be if i did it right.but if i didnt just search for pandora on the site.

+1 Pandora
I second Pandora radio. It is great! I use it pretty much everywhere, on my Tilt2, ipod touch, on work and home computers, blue ray player. Now if I could somehow get it on my car stereo!
Its got a couple limits, like only being able to listen for 40 hours a month (which you can use more if you purchase), but I've only reached that limit twice in the 8 months I've been using it, just remember to pause when not listening .

Pandora is Good , I even upgraded and got PANDORA one, then i found Slacker Radio and now use it more and upograded to Slacker Pro very very nice and you can make your stations or choose from many others.

Way Off Topic But Worth A Try

I figure if anyone knows, it will be someone here ... I grabbed a new laptop (broke screen on old one) It's an HP Envy m7 ... pretty nice rig with 17.3" touch screen, i7, 12g, beats audio ... I drive a truck and listen to my Detroit Tigers games through the phone via MLB At Bat ... I am trying to figure out how to stream the audio from the phone to the laptop via Bluetooth so I can listen to the games on the HP.
I come up empty on google searches. From what I've found in Media Player, I can stream out but not in with that... I go into sound properties where it shows the available devices; speakers, microphone and the phone when paired doesn't show up as a device in there. My Dell had an external microphone jack on the side and I was able to change the properties of that to 'line in' ... then I would plug the phone headphone jack into mic jack and listen to it that way. This rig only has an internal mic, no jack.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Edit: Running Windows 8.1 BTW ....

Sounds like you should just connect your pc to your phones tethering and stream from the pc.

The MLB app is device specific and I'd have to buy a new subscription for the lappy. Yeah I know, spend nearly a grand on a lap top but don't want to spend 20 bux on a subscription sounds kind of ironic !!

@Chopstix9 are there any radio stations local to you that broadcast the game when it's on? I kno iHeartRadio and RadioPup and some other apps stream those local stations to your phone and or PC or other device for free.. May be worth a little hunt to save some $$$

Of course there is ... and I listen to that local Detroit sports talk radio station almost all day via radio.com over the net on the laptop with the phone broadcasting the net signal for connection (I'm an over the road truck driver). But even though they broadcast the games on the radio, they are not permitted to over the internet. MLB couldn't get the $$ for their mobile apps / accounts if they allowed that. When the game starts. the internet version of the radio station switches over to the CBS sports talk feed. Only way to hear the game is through MLB.com

Didn't consider that. Sorry.

Android based HU that interfaces phone via BT or wireless?

I'm fairly new to this concept but I'm trying to get up to speed. Basically what I want to do is display waze, play pandora and other random things i do on my phone now. I would like to do it perhaps having the HU connect to my phone hotspot via wireless for data and perhaps even use the phones GPS data. If not I can always run a GPS antenna to the HU. But basically I just want to be able to use waze, pandora and maybe a select few other apps. Is there something out there like this? I know about app radio but It also appears the phone must be plugged in via HDMI to make this work. I currently have an AVIC-Z140BH which is ok but the navigation sucks and pretty much all i use it for is pandora and album art. Being that it's in a loud vert I rarely use the hands free part of it but that's a nice feature to retain if possible.
This Avin Avant-2 is the closest I found, opinions?
Thanks much guys.
