For some reason, you sounded like a tech genius. I really really need to expand my tech in the year 2024. I came across one of these links that were in the video description, I clicked on it, and look, Amazon still has it in stock. Now, all I need to find is a CD player that has anti-Skip that buffers the data for at least a minute or 60 seconds, even in the slightest jolts and bumpy roads, not just when we’re walking or running, but also for driving.

I got a transceiver and hooked it up to my portable CD player as you directed. It pairs with my 2021 Honda OK, but the car acts like it's cell phone. It displays "incoming call" and won't do anything until I hit answer. When I do, the audio does not come through - instead, it hear only my own voice echoed. Any ideas?

@justinnaramor6050 3 года назад

A bluetooth transmitter like the one talked about here could also be very useful if you have wireless headphones that do not have an auxiliary audio input but yet you want to use them with an MP3 player that doesn't have bluetooth. Let's talk about the Apple Airpods Max headphones, for instance. There's no auxiliary input on those headphones. So a bluetooth transmitter like this could be a nice workaround if you wanted to use them with your mp3 player. I, for example, have a device called the "Plextalk Pocket", and this device has no bluetooth capabilities. So a bluetooth transmitter would allow me to turn the Plextalk Pocket into a bluetooth-compatible device! This is rather exciting for me, because I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to buy a bluetooth speaker or headphones to use with the Plextalk device only to discover that the speaker or headphones have no audio input jack! I've always had to make sure that the wireless headphones or speakers I buy also have an audio jack so I can use it with my non-bluetooth devices, but if I get a transmitter like the one shown here, I won't have to worry about that anymore!

@kcgrandpatech 3 года назад

@justinnaramor6050 3 года назад

@@kcgrandpatech You're welcome :) I actually intentionally looked for videos like this to see if bluetooth transmitters were a thing; I'm aware of bluetooth receivers, which allow you to essentially turn wired headphones into wireless ones, but I've thought it could be cool to do the opposite (turn a non-bluetooth audio player into a bluetooth-compatable one). So videos like this one make me even more excited to know that this kind of thing does in fact exist!

@justinnaramor6050 2 года назад

@@jenningswest79 I'm sure you could absolutely find a transmitter like this on Amazon. My goodness, I'd forgotten I even wrote any kind of comment on this video, it seams so long ago! Actually, I'm not really looking for a bluetooth transmitter at the moment, because I already have headphones that are wired, and I can also use them with bluetooth if I want. But I always end up connecting them to my IPhone or something like that if I want to use them in bluetooth mode. I may still get a transmitter though, just in case I decide I want to use my Plextalk Pocket with bluetooth because I don't want to use the wire (for whatever reason). In fact, Christmas is coming up soon, so I may even decide to get a bluetooth transmitter for Christmas!

@suelaine77 2 года назад

I tried two other similar bluetooth transmitter/receivers and they did NOT work (would not connect with my car's bluetooth). They would connect with other devices in my home so I know there was nothing technically wrong with them. So my specific question is, is the Trond any different? Are there any that are tested to work with the news cars with only a usb media port and Carplay/Android Auto? It seems these newer car bluetooth compatibility is limited to devices like phones or Ipod/Ipads. I read other similar comments below. Just because this works in some cars, do NOT assume it works in all cars or that we are not following directions. Some of us babyboomers are QUITE determined to find a solution. Unfortunately, and I see no reason for it, some newer cars are not compatible with these types of transmitters.

@noeljosephdelacruz7451 4 месяца назад

@@kcgrandpatech So, first, set the transceiver to transmit, either before or after you power it on. Second, plug one end to the USB socket and the other end of it to the said device. The third and last step is pretty much a big one to look closely. What I know is that this Bluetooth transceiver comes with a 3.5 mm audio Jack and cable. I guess that’s when you will connect whatever player you have on hand, like an MP3 player, a CD player, an iPod, etc. to that transceiver. I’m splitting the last step into a separate step, which will be step 4 and is also the final one. I’m thinking that’s when you’re going to have to go to source and Bluetooth on your car’s computer system. That’s when mom and dad will have to see if the system sees the said device, and once tapped on it, I’m good to go. I hope that’s my best explanation of the process. I’m sure I’ll come back and say thank you once it has succeeded.
