Hi eveyone,

I am trying to stream a video file throught bluetooth.
I am new to bluetooth. I tried to run the BTdiscovery example program in Symbian OS7.0s. When i say Start discover from this application(from emulator) it ask the near bye bluetooth enabled mobile for authentication when i authenticate from that mobile then the BTdiscovery application crashed.

Then i noticed that in bt.esk file the pornumber which is  mentioned only represends outgoing port number for BT. But where as for incoming the system (Widnows) uses adifferent port number.

Where i am missing? is thre any other file that i have to metion incoming port number?

Kindly help me..

Huh

Re: Streaming through Bluetooth
Where do u want to specify the incoming port number? If you are using any of the SDK examples, there is no need to change any port number anywhere unless you test them on the Nokia Connectivity framework.

Re: Streaming through Bluetooth
You are missing the fact that the port number in bt.esk has nothing to do with outgoing or incomming port numbers on your WINDOWS bluetooth stack.

The emulator has it's own bluetooth stack, and the port number in bt.esk refers to the physcial port that this hardware is connected to (-1 as EPOC port numbers start at 0, so 0 => com1 on the PC)

You need something that supports the HCI that your emulator is using (like a casira end point).  A off the shelf bluetooth adaptor with the widcomm Bluetooth stack installed wont cut it.

Unless you buy a "conversion" driver to enable the emulators BT stack to use the off the shelf dongle.  See http://www.cyberabi.com/
