Send audio from my laptop to my iPhone over Bluetooth
I have an iPhone 4, and Philips dock speakers which I use with the phone.
The dock doesn't have any aux input, and I would like to use the dock as a speaker for my laptop.
I know I can achieve it through Wi-Fi, but my laptop doesn't have one. Is there any Bluetooth alternative to send laptop audio to my iPhone?
According to your comment, you would be happy with a Ubuntu solution where WiFi works. Therefore, follow this thread at askubuntu.com.
What they basically suggest, is:
- Create a webserver with IceCast under Ubuntu und stream your audio from there (Here is a Howto)
- Connect your iPhone via an IceCast compatible app.
- Now you can connect your iPhone to your IceCast server and stream audio
If this doesn't work for you because of complexity, follow the lead of:
- creating your own local streaming server on Ubuntu, or just create a "normal server"
- and then access the files from there on your iPhone with a app which can connect to that server.
A Bluetooth solution for a Windows environment is over here.
