Airpods pro gebruiken om te gamen

[N.Uckerman]

Hallo iedereen,

Ik ben opzoek naar een mogelijkheid om mijn airpods pro van apple te gebruiken als "gaming headset" voor iRacing. Nu weet ik dat het standaard niet mogelijk is, aangezien de bluetooth niet sterk genoeg is om zowel audio goed te ontvangen en ook nog gebruik te maken van de mic van de airpods.

Mijn vraag is dus:

Zijn er bepaalde bluetooth adapters of andere hardware waar dit wel mogelijk mee wordt?

Alvast bedankt voor jullie moeite!

Ik heb letterlijk 10 seconden gezocht op Google en ik heb dit gevonden op Reddit:

Windows is a bit weird with BlueTooth headsets. It will setup two devices in Windows when you pair a bluetooth headset (whether AirPods, Jabra Elite, etc):

"Headphones - Airpods Stereo"

"Headset - Airpods HANDS FREE AUDIO"

Using the 1st, the sound is great as you'd find from your phone. The 2nd option will let you use the microphone, but changes the audio quality to mono and low quality and also disconnects from other devices to be exclusive to Windows. Not nice.

If you only want to listen to audio, and not use it as a headset for communications software like Skype, then you can disable the telephony services on the device which causes low quality audio:

Settings

Devices

Devices and Printers (far right-hand side)

Find your device and then Right click on your headset & choose Properties

Click the Services Tab

De-Select/Un-check Handsfree Telephony and hit Apply/OK

You shouldn't need a restart after this, but worth doing if it doesn't work right away.

This is a bit of a work-around and doesn't help you if you want to use it as a true headset in things like Skype/Teams/Skype for Business/WebEx/etc. That said, it'll ensure that your headphones show up as only one device, with quality stereo sound.

If you want to use the microphones and use it as a true headset with Windows - I'd recommend buying the Jabra Link 370 USB Adapter ($75 USD, not cheap). It is unlike a regular Bluetooth adapter in that it will provide high quality sound when using the microphones, so you can use it as a headset. It also provides exceptional range of ~100ft. Any ol' regular BlueTooth dongle will sadly default to mono, low quality sound in Windows as you've experienced.

Voortaan misschien wat beter zoeken?
