Help Winamp not playing with my car bluetooth

At last I' ve replaced my iphone with S3. For me, the most important reason of buying a smart phone is listening music with bluetooth in my car. Quality of music is also very important. Iphone's stack player was awsome. I' ve never touched the EQ of it. The worse thing was the itunes. For this reason i' ve preferred user friendly Galaxy S3.

But now i am disappointed because of the sock player' s terrible music quality. The hi tones are horrible (a lot of buzzes and cracks) and also there is a cliping sound. Then i' ve loaded my old friend "Winap Pro app". But guess what? The bluetooth never plays it! I' ve tried nearly every advice through forums. But nothing changed. Please help me.



1.Is it possible to change the quality of stock player (don't tell me to change the EQ settings).

2. How can i use winamp with my car audios bluetooth.

Thank you
And sorry for my English.
 
hmm not tried winamp but I have tried poweramp and doubletwist (check them out, both have trial versions), both of which worked fine when connected via bluetooth, so I don't see why winamp would be any different.

As far as the pops/cracks etc you shouldn't get that at all. Is the device ok when used with headphones ? can you try connecting to another car via bluetooth to see if the problem repeats itself ? what car / head unit are you connecting to ?
I'm wondering if there is some sort of issue with the bluetooth receiver or if you have a fault with the phone.

I' ll try those apps tomorrow.
I have Toyota Avensis 2011 and haven' t seen that issue with my Iphone. It was working perfect. And it is not the fault of my phone. Because my wife also has S3. Her phone has the same problem too.

Not surprising, I've had nothing but problems with Winamp and I agree that the stock music player is awful. I use Player Pro with the DSP pack. Most people seem to like Power Amp, but I feel like Player Pro has more features. Not sure about bluetooth though as I never use it.

If you want a good free player try Fusion, tons better than any other free player or the stock player in my opinion.
