Hi!

After so many years being fine with the occasional use of bluetooth headphones, they have now become mandatory as alternatives (2.4GHz) have died out.
The sound quality has always been really bad but now I wanted to solve this issue.

I have searched and installed CSR-Bluetooth stack as well as Toshiba-Bluetooth stack and updated the Intel BT driver, was happy to find one fairly recent (2020!!!) from Access Denied

As far as I understood what was missing in Win7 is the A2DP Protocol, which is the prerequisite to using good quality newer Audio-codecs.
Checking in various bluetooth-headphones I can now see "Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (Sink)" under the Hardware-tab.

Unfortunately the audio quality is still abysmal as before.

Has anyone ever managed to get this running? I found people who apparantly did with USB-BT adaptors. But I'd like to keep using the internal card since it is a laptop.
