Does anyone else us stream music to their mogul?

I used "pocket music" to stream music from Shoutcast and it works great. Even supports winamp skins.

Didn't know about the FM Transmitter for the phone. I use those (Monster version) for my Ipod and in big cities such as Chicago, it's hard to stay on one channel when driving any long distance. Radio stations are fighting for a signal and I'm always picking a new band width to transmit. If you do not live in a big city such as Chicago, New York, etc, this maybe the way to go because it is less clutter in your car, but I have found that the tape adaptor is consistent and does not get interrupted, unless you eject the adaptor from the tape deck.

I'd have to agree that an FM transmitter is never a real solution, you're always fighting interference and the quality of sound is usually quite bad. I use a similiar setup of the tape deck adapter but I'm trying to rig up something nutty for a while now. It's a bluetooth headset embedded inside a tape deck adapter. I want to wire the output of the headset to the induction coil of the tape adapter. Sorta like this thing http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/2005/02/23/abe-bt-80c-bluetooth-stereo-cassette-adapter/
which unfortunately never came out.

2 reasons i forwent the cassette adapter
1>the connection was getting flakey and i had to keep jiggling the connector.
2>i had to unplug the line every time i wanted to use the phone via bt. the old rom the calls would go to BT even if i had the audio plugged in.

so the motorokr t505 was the best solution for me, and no, i don't work for motorola and no i don't get a commission :P

FYI, after extensive googling, I found this http://www.uxcell.com/bluetooth-audi...e-p-11805.html

I don't know anything about the site or if it's reputable but you can add it to your shopping cart so I assume they have it in stock. Let me know if you decide to go this route. I'm debating between doing this and paying $99 for a new cd player from crutchfield that has bluetooth built in.

nice find bugsysiegals!
I remember looking like crazy for this type of devices a couple of months ago. It looks like you charge it seperately and then it sits in your tape deck accepting bt connections. I'm wondering however if its gonna support A2DP? Anyone brave enough to order this?

I use GSPlayer to stream playlists to my phone from my MythTV box. I had to do some fancy work with access rights, but I can use the web interface to make the playlists, then drop them on my phone and listen in the car.

Only problem is when I drive to the one spot on my way to work where I lose service.....other then that it works great.

calash maybe you can try to increase the buffering in GSplayer, often I'll hit dead spots but the evdo can pull so much data that I'll run off the buffer for a bit intil I'm back in the zone and never have my music cut off.

[kupo]

ok I tried GSplayer and that still won't let me stream with phone in hibernate. I'm definitely looking for a reg tweak to solve this still.

I use MortPlayer and am able to hit the power button and continue playing. Although, I'm not sure if I've ever used it for streaming feeds though. Give it a try and see if it works.
