Unfortunately we cannot comment on future releases at Apple, so I cannot say whether we are or are not working on SCO. What I can tell you is what is missing from the current implementation. Currently the Apple HCI controller driver does not open any of the SCO pipes to the USB device, so this is the major missing piece. Additionally, there is a hardware question to answer before you know if support will be possible with a given dongle. Some Bluetooth silicon will support SCO with the audio being piped across some external HW codecs and ports, which are not available on the USB bus, where others will provide access to incoming and outgoing audio data over the USB interface. So what is needed from the Bluetooth perspective is the addition of code to open and read/write the isochronous USB pipes on the Bluetooth dongle married with a USB dongle which can support the audio data piped over the USB interface. On top of the Bluetooth pieces that are missing is the code needed to pipe data into and out of the Mac OS X audio system. I am not very familiar with the audio system, and how to write drivers in that world, however that information can be found at: http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Darwin/IOKit/DeviceDrivers/ Audio/WritingAudioDrivers/index.html -larson On Thursday, April 24, 2003, at 07:36 AM, Michael A.

If all the hardware is there and no-one is about to release the missing software, maybe I can get to work on it. I've implemented protocols before, from OSI layer 2 on up. _______________________________________________ bluetooth-dev mailing list | bluetooth-dev@lists.apple.com Help/Unsubscribe/Archives: http://www.lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/bluetooth-dev Do not post admin requests to the list.
