How To Use Winamp With Bluetooth Headphones?

rag-2-riches · 26th July 2020, 00:18

Anybody ever figure out how to use bluetooth headphones with Winamp? Because my wireless headphones work fine everywhere except with Winamp. I've see other very old posts in the forum about this, but with no resolutions. I don't see anything showing up in Output or Input Plugins that I would select to get the headphones to work. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Well, if anyone else ever needs to know. Winamp does not switch to headphones automatically. You got to do it manually. Go into Options. Then Preferences. Select "Output". Click on "Nullsoft DirectSound Output". Click "Configure" at bottom of screen. Then change the "Device" field to the Headphones. It's probably on "Primary Sound Card" by default.
