An adapter for receiving a wireless digital signal that includes an audio
signal and audio metadata concerning the audio signal from a portable
electronic device has a Bluetooth wireless receiver for receiving the
wireless digital signal from the portable electronic device in a
Bluetooth digital format. A microprocessor having format conversion
software converts the Bluetooth formatted audio signal in the wireless
digital signal into a satellite radio formatted audio signal. Satellite
metadata generating software generates satellite radio formatted metadata
based upon the received Bluetooth formatted audio metadata. A switch
electrically couples an output of the adapter to a satellite radio input
of an audio system when the Bluetooth transceiver detects a Bluetooth
transmission. The adapter provides the satellite radio formatted audio
signal and metadata to the audio system such that the audio signal is
reproduced by an audio output of the audio system and the metadata is
displayed on a display of the audio system. The adapter can also include
an FM modulator that produces a frequency modulated output based upon the
received Bluetooth formatted audio signal and metadata.
