Abstract
A short-range wireless communication apparatus comprising a connection device and a control device is disclosed. The connection device connects a sound data transfer protocol and a control data transfer protocol to a communication destination apparatus. When the control device determines that a streaming status reported from the communication destination apparatus with use of the sound data transfer protocol is an output-in-progress state, the control device identifies the state of the communication destination apparatus in accordance with a play status reported from the communication destination apparatus with use of the sound data transfer protocol. When the control device determines that the streaming status is a stopped state, the control device identifies the state of the communication destination apparatus as one of a temporarily-stopped state and a stopped state even if the reported play status is a reproduction-in-progress state.
