Media control over bluetooth - Android Software Development

I want to develope ( or manipulate if available an open source) media player for android with the bluetooth avrcp profile feature support, so that playing commands can be sent from another bluetooth enabled cell phone. When I pair such a phone to my laptop via bluetooth, several services are displayed such as: object push, desktop control, mouse and media player, that is my aim to have the media player service when it is connected to android mobile. But the only available service it displays after pairing is the object push. What is wrong? Is avrcp the correct profile to work with? How to enable it? And how to access the controlling commands in my application? If not, then what is the alternative? My phone type is nexus one with rooted android2.2.1 stock rom.
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

No idea? How to write a program to catch instructions via bluetooth then?

This application runs in background of your pc,and using the client like a windows mediaplayer on pocket pc you can control your Windows Mediaplayer remotely with mp3's,divx,etc..!
I find it really great,and it is free.

"Support for A2DP & AVRCP profiles."
This are the two bluetooth additions in cupcake..
Please explain me this two terms and does they mean that i can transfer files with other phones via bluetooth?
Don't post wikipedia links i dint understood any thing from there...
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP)
allows you to transfer audio files to another device over bluetooth
Audio/Video Remote Control (AVRCP)
allows you to control audio/video on a device such as a computer or tv over bluetooth, as long as they support it.
there you go.
does any of these things allow me to transfer data(files not supported or apk files) over bluetooth?
or even images pictures?

Last.fm Desktop app and Android Remote

Has anybody thought about creating an Android app that would allow the user to control their desktop Last.fm application remotely via wi-fi? I know the obvious question, why not just use the android last.fm app on your phone? I have wireless speakers connected to my computer throughout my house and I would like to be able to control Last.fm through my phone. Similar apps exist for Songbird (SongbirdRemote) and Spotify(Remotify), just wondering why there isn't one for Last.fm.
PS - I would be willing to help test such an app if anyone knows how to create it. I'm using a Motorola Droid and Linux Ubuntu 10.04.
up. anybody have more elegant solution than RDP into desktop? or maybe audio re-direct from the phone to server over wifi?
I use fm transmitter in the car, and going to buy bluetooth receiver for home audio. Can use phone app for last.fm control then.

[Q] Remote control of music?

Is there any kind of app that will let me see and control the music on my PC from my mytouch 4g? Like with winamp or windows media player?
awaremote works with winamp. been using the free version and its pretty sweet.
Thanks. I guess WiFi is the only way and by setting up a server. I just thought there might be a way via remote server access.
theres one called pc remote. it show your actual desktop and you can control everything. only thing is i have tried to use it with out wifi and just get a connection timed out error. and similar with any of the others i have tried without wifi.
Great. Thanks. Have you tried Winamp's remote options?

Play music on computer from Tablet?

Hi,
I saw people doing this with their Ipad via Icloud and I was wondering if someone could tell me how do you control music from your computer with your tablet.
The 2 things I want to do are:
1) Be able to control the music that is on my computer from my tablet so it plays on the computer speakers
2) Be able to play the music from my tablet on my computer speakers. For example: I am in the kitchen and want to use the AUPEO! apps from my tablet but want it to play on my computer speakers
Thanks to anyone who can help
I am rooted and I use Thor V14.2
Maybe Gmote?
Gmote would be the way to go for your #1 comment. For #2, you could enable the Clear Fi on the tablet (not sure if Thor ROM kept it on there), which turns your tablet into a media server, and then your computer should be able to pick it up, and start playing whatever shared media is on the tablet (this is using DLNA). If the ROM doesn't have Clear Fi installed, you can find quite a few DLNA server apps in the market.
I personally use this foobar remote. Lets me control foobar over Wifi LAN/Internet and basically play music on my PC speakers.
I also use ES File explorer to play files from my PC on the tablet. Works over Wifi LAN or you could setup an FTP or remote login.
PS: As a side note, if you guys are a sucker for stats, this particular (Remote System Monitor) app monitors everything about your pc...hdd usage, cpu usage and temp, gpu stats, network stats etc. Pretty neat....yea and probably off topic
Hope this helps
I use "Media Center Control" (on the market, not free). Can play audio and video on TV from A500. Works perfectly. Supports WOL.

You might want to check out XBMC. I have replaced my Windows Media Center with it and have not looked back.
Over Wifi I can see my entire video/music library and control what is playing on the PC. It also has a neat remote control feature for pausing and the like.
You will need the client on the PC and the android client is free on the market.
VLC works great. Try that out
Unified remote (http://unifiedremote.com/) is awesome as it will do what you are looking to do in #1 and #2, it has built in remotes that control mouse, keyboard, winamp, vlc, wmp, file browser, and a myriad of others. I especially like that I can power off my PC with it.
