Anyone else try this change and not see skipping in WMP with the built in speaker (not BT)?

I did a little more experimentation with these reg values. I set the BlockTransferSize value to the 256 suggested by iamred. Didn't observe any skipping of WMP in standard speaker playback. However, the stereo bluetooth skipped worse than ever. The best setting for least skipping with BT occurs when saridnour's A2DP key value (see first post) is set low. However, WMP still skips at those low settings, and frankly there isn't a whole lot of difference between high and low values for that A2DP key. Does the effect of these key values differ from person to person because of the different headphones being used? Looks like a few seconds of skipping in the first song is something we have to live with. On my BT headphones, I can hit the "previous track" button and re-play the first song from the beginning. Then there is no skipping. I wish WMP had a buffer adjustment. Perhaps that would solve this problem?

Hi Guys... So I'm going to take back what I said earlier about those changes I made helping the skipping problem. I've been playing with a lot of different values and it doesn't seem to be having the same effect I was seeing when I made my original post.
Actually, it seems like A2DP works better on some days than others. I noticed that there is a 'channel' registry key for the A2DP device. I remember reading somewhere that manipulating this channel improved someones Bluetooth Headset problems. So maybe the day-to-day nature of my problem is that it randomly selects a different channel every time I connect and some channels are better than others.
Also regarding A2DP: Everytime i want to enable A2DP, i have to manually turn it on by going to the 'blue tooth settings' page. It requires something like 5 button presses. Does anyone know of an application that could automate this? My guess is that it just makes some registry change and runs an application from the windows directory.
