Thanks, I have tried that but it keeps dropping out and sound quality is not great.

I Bluetooth Sounds from my phone to moOde with acceptable results. Is it just the Sounds app on your laptop that has bother, or are is all audio affected?

Potentially an issue with the app itself then. Unfortunately I don't have the required setup to be able test Sounds from Windows over Bluetooth, so I'm unable to help further.

It isn't clear to me what isn't working for you.

Since it was mentioned that BBC Sounds is not geo-locked I thought I'd give it a go (I'm in North America). 

Once I got registered I tested my account works "on this side of the pond" by installing the BBC Sounds app on my iPad and streaming to my moOde 8.3.9 player via Airplay and BT. This combination works fine.

I can run either Win10Pro and Win11Pro as guest OSes Oracle VirtualBox on my Linux laptop. I don't have any BT output available on that device but I do have TuneBlade installed in Win10Pro. BBC Sounds streams via this to my moOde player without issue as well. If I can find a suitable USB-BT adapter I'll try that as well.

As an aside, the breadth of offerings from BBC Sounds is remarkable.

Regards,
Kent

I spend a lot of time listening to Sounds. Just not via Windows Smile
