Guys,
i really wondering that;
i bought a new g note, and i wanted to use 5.1 surround system.
it connected with BT stereo headset and when i wanted to use 5.1, a box appeared like "this effect is able to use just headset mode"...
its ridicolous right??? do i have to just wired jack system to use my right!!!

I have wondered the same thing myself, however it is worth noting that the 5.1 audio you refer to is a psychoacoustic "simulated" surround effect through two speakers. As a result, it is extremely subjective and some people can't hear the effect, others hear it fine, others like me just hear irritating phase distortions over the music.
Simple version: it's a fake simulation that's not worth using anyway.
However I will add that if you have a video that has a full "real" 5.1 encoded audio track, it *should* output this through the MHL to HDMI adapter. Bluetooth is only stereo, though.

Funny thing is i tried this with my bluetooth headset today after owning since november. Thought i was the only one.
If its anything like the sgs2/sgs then it didnt make a huge difference.

i've been wondering this, my car has Bose centerpoint 5.1 surround. it would be nice if i could send a 5.1 signal via bluetooth..... wondering if it's even possible to output 5.1.......
I unfortunately use a HDMI to DVI cable for my video as i play on a monitor in my room. Sadly i have to use a bluetooth earpiece just for sound and it is annoying. Internalizing a speaker would NOT be ideal for game play but better than having to pair every time just for sound... My idea was get a regular speaker solder it to the audio pinouts from HDMI. is this possible? i have google for so long and could not find the pinouts for the pic i posted. I dont want to mess up considering how small they contacts are.... and my soldering skills not so great... I wanna get it done on my first go thanks for any input!

Those aren't analog audio outputs. You'll need a DVI audio breakout box if you want normal audio out. But honestly $120ish will get you a nice 24" with hdmi in nowadays.
Perhaps a cheap Bluetooth speaker? Mine pairs automatically and doesn't require pins or anything... Even the first time.
Same situation but probably a little more comfortable.
On my android stick MK808 I've seen people use a USB sound card with audio out. May work the same.

Get a bluetooth adapter, it'll allow you to hook up any speakers to it via AUX cable. I do this with my laptop to my stereo. The only problem is I got bad lag on sound via bluetooth with the OUYA, not sure why.
USB Audio devices are just $9, but you'll need a ROM that supports the drivers. I couldn't get them to work on the stock OUYA ROM, I could get it to work with the CM10 ROM experimental using a patcher.
Otherwise, a HDMI/DVI breakout would work. Or a bluetooth to aux.
They really should have included a headphone jack. Guess they wanted to cut the cost of an amp/jack.
USB audio is definitely the cheapest way to go, but it may be a while before the ouya officially supports it.

bluetooth to AUX works but there's a bad delay, so it really doesn't work with gaming. If it's for movies, programs like XBMC has a syncing feature and for music it wouldn't matter.

Well, I'd hope Ouya includes the drivers in an official update for USB Audio devices. It is kinda a needed thing for a lot of people who want to game with headphones, not all TV's (especially low-end ones) have headphone/LR out.
My TV *does* have it, so I can break out the signal that way. But for when I don't want to use a screen (ie: listening to music, etc.), I have the USB Audio to allow that without leaving the screen on.

So here's the thing...I've got an oldish HDTV and it does not support ARC audio.
So I can SEE the chromecast just fine, but no sound is going to be a problem.
I had the brilliant idea od getting a cheap 1x2 splitter, running one output to my TV and one to my sound system so that the two devices would be getting the same signal at the dame time and I just switch the input for my sound system to HDMI and it should broadcast sound just fine while the TV broadcasts the picture...right?
Wrong.
I don't know if it's the brand I used or the cheapness of it, but my chromecast would NOT work through that splitter. Even when the splitter had the input and output lights all lit up, supposedly sending signal, the video display was blank.
So, here's the thing: Is there anything available that can either split off just the audio to any other format (I have spare fiber optic port, I have spare RCA and component, I;ve got spare audio connectors aplenty), or failing that, a way to convert HDMI to Hd component or something that will work with the chromecast?
I know there's HDMI to component converters out there, but I'm guessing the chromecast needs some kind of return signal from the TV in order to operate, which is why it didn't work with my splitter maybe?
ANyway, if ayone has a good workaround i;d be much obliged. I want chromecast but I'm obviously not going to buy a new TV just to make a $35 device work
ARC is something else. Your HDMI TV will play audio from an HDMI device. Same with your receiver (unless its an HDMI pass through). You don't need any splitters or anything if your TV has HDMI.

Make sure the TV sees it as being HDMI and not DVI. The TV should tell you what kind of video signal its receiving.
As the others have said, your TV should be getting the audio from the Chromecast HDMI. For testing, switch your TV speakers on - you should hear the audio.
My (older) Sony TV doesn't support ARC either, but it has optical audio out, so I run that to my sound bar and it works fine.

Whoops. Yeah, it looks like the reason I wasn't getting audio is my TV was set to external amp, I had to turn the built in speakers on in order to get sound.
Now, however, I can only get sound from the tinny onboard speakers and not the big thumping 5.1
Now to figure out how to fix that...
Your TV doesn't have an audio output? Either analog (sometimes labeled "variable out" if it's controlled by the TV volume control) or a digital out?
---------- Post added at 01:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 AM ----------
BTW many HDMI splitters aren't HDCP compliant, and those tend not to work for non-computer sources because the HDCP handshake doesn't happen.
---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 AM ----------
And yes, something like a (genuine - beware of fakes) HDfury2 or newer will turn a spare VGA or component input into an HDMI input and split out the audio, but I'm pretty sure you can achieve what you want without adding extra conversion.
What make/ model are your TV and sound system?
Can't you plug the CC into an HDMI input on your receiver, as you would any other input device?
Agree, technically that's how mine is connected. My sound bar has 3 inputs and its HDMI output goes to my TV, then the optical output from the TV goes back to the sound bar input (since my TV doesn't support ARC).
bhiga said:

I have RGB cables that go from the TV to the cable box, and a fiber optic that goes from the cable box to the sound system/dvd player
The TV is connected to the sound system/dvd by an HDMI cable, and the sound system only has the one HDMI port and for some reason that HDMI connection doesn't seem to carry sound from the TV to the sound system
The TV has spare stereo outputs (Red/White), and a round yellow Digital Audio Coax port.
The sound system has a spare fiber optic port, and might have a spare red/white stereo port (but that of course would only give me stereo and not 5.1

So at the moment, unless I can figure out why the HDMI cable isn't porting sound from the TV/CC, it looks like the only way to get sound out of the good speakers would be Stereo only.
Unless maybe something like this? http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Optic...8ZQY/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1385195890&sr=8-3 convert that digital audio coax on the TV into a fiber optic to plug into the spare fiber optic jack on the sound system?

Okay... I looked at your TV's spec sheet and your sound system's manual.
Your TV has three HDMI inputs, two on the back, one on the side.
Your combo sound system/BD player has a single HDMI output, which is how your BD/DVD disc playback gets picture on the TV, and two TOSlink optical digital audio inputs.
Your cable box is connected to the TV via Component video (red/green/blue) connection to the TV, and TOSlink audio (optical) connection to one of your sound system's inputs.
Since your TV doesn't support ARC, it can't send decoded audio back "up" the HDMI connection to the sound system, so we need to use a another connection to get the decoded audio output from your TV back to the sound system.

Close, but you want one that converts the other way, from SPDIF coax to TOSlink optical.
Your TV will "break out" the audio from the Chromecast connection and output it on the SPDIF coax connection, it'll go through the converter (don't worry about delay, it's just a signal medium conversion, not an re-encode) to your sound system's TOSlink optical input, and you should hear audio, assuming your sound system is set to the correct input.

Woot! you're a lifesaver, man. Have all the +1s
I'm gonna snag that up now and report my results.
After my failed splitter experiment this should put me at about $50 worth of cables and doodads to support a $35 dongle
That'll teach me not to come here first.
Haha if it makes you feel any better, I have about $250 of gear to get Chromecast on a 20-inch SD tube TV. Half of it was already stuff I had though.
Still HBO Go and AllCast/AirCast make it quite useful.
Much easier than transcoding stuff and pushing it back to the TiVo hooked up to that TV.

LOL, wow, after a certain point it'd almost be cheaper to grab a new TV, or at least a decent pawn shop model
But of course, it's the principle of the matter. A new TV would be admitting defeat
Very true (and what I advise others to do - unless you have a very special display or circumstances, much cheaper to upgrade to something better), in my case I have other uses for the new gear once this invincible tube finally retires, heh. Plus I'm a "learn by doing" kind of person...

Whoops! Sorry I forgot to get back about my results...I was too distracted watching chromecast in glorious 5.1
That converter worked exactly to spec. All I have to do is cast a video and my TV automatically switches video inputs, then I just tap the autio input button on my sound system remote ocne and it pops over to the second toslink port and it comes right out.
Only hitch is that it takes a second for the audio to switch over so I have to pause the video once I cast it.
And the second the video ends and there's no active output from the chromecast the audi immediately switches back to the cable box, but hey at least it works!
For the record, I solved the audio switching problem. It was super frustrating because every time I paused it would switch back to the cable box audio and it always took a second or two to come back.
Problem? Had my TV plugged into the wrong Toslink port. Port 1 is the default TV input. For the longest time all we had plugged into it was the cable box so it was in one.
Switched the TV to one and cable box to two and blammo!
I chromecast something and the TV automatically switches to the HDMI port for the dongle and the audio automatically switches over to the input from the TV! Perfection.
Then all I have to do is manually switch inputs back to component for video and digital 2 for audio and i'm back to watching cable

I noticed that too, it;s weird! But if I'm casting something from a tab I pretty much have to use the laptop.
Protip: I found out that chrome will open mp4s in-browser so if you want to play a local video just C&P the file location into your chrome browser and cast away!
I´ve been reading this through these chromecast threads and I cannot seem to sort out my problem..... I have Samsung UE40EH5000 tv and Sony STR-DG700 receiver.

Most likely it's just your TV settings - it probably doesn't support ARC (Audio Return Channel) as I don't see it mentioned in the Quick Setup or Manual.
If that's the case, you need to run the Digital output from the TV back into your receiver. See page 66 of your TV's Quick Setup (which IMO is a better "manual" than what Samsung calls the manual).
Set your TV's Speaker Select to External Speaker. It says that on TV Speaker it should have sound out both the TV's speakers and external output, but at least on my Sony TV and Sony sound bar, having both on produces a strange echo effect.
(See page 53 of your TV manual)
Also check on your receiver that the HDMI port has been properly assigned to the input that you're using.

I actually think this is a problem on his Amp side....he did say that he tried plugging into the Amp directly and got the same result.
If his TV doesn't support ARC he could use an Optical cable from the TV to the Amp and that would work.
But he might need to check the Audio settings on his AMP for that particular HDMI port.
Not sure about the devices he says works but I wouldn't expect a IPod to plug into the same HDMI plug he was trying to use and most older Sat boxes usually use an Optical input instead of the HDMI.
And you can change the Input on most Receivers to set what Audio source to take from be it optical or HDMI.
He should check the settings for that particular output and see if the Audio is set to HDMI.
Many thanks guys for your help but its still not working, I haven´t tried an optical cable because I need to buy one and they are about 30-40 euros here, and I thought audio should run through HDMI.
The chromecast is from the USA and I am in portugal will that make a difference?
Here is my setup....Chromecast plugged into TV, HDMI cable plugged into TV and run to receiver (3 HDMI ports on receiver, not sure which one is correct, but have tried all three I think!!)
Have tried with TV speakers and external speaker settings on TV.

Will an optical cable be the solution?

Ouch, that's horribly expensive. Optical cables should be US$10 or less, though you can definitely spend more. But optical cables do not need shielding the same way electrical cables do.
Not sure where you are, but here's a quick search on Amazon UK for price comparison

If you hear audio on your TV, then yes, the optical cable will solve the problem by sending the decoded audio from the TV back to the receiver.

Yes Optical would solve your problem, The wiring you described would only work if your amp and TV support HDMI-ARC which really requires a more recent TV and AMP. That port is usually specially marked on both the TV and AMP side.
I'm betting most of the cost of that cable is in the shipping.but Ebay has a slew available that would bring the price down.

One other issue I have come across which you may or may not be able to help me with.
One of the things I want to do with chromecast is run karaoke videos from YouTube, I have a mixer the microphones are plugged into but I found the optical sound was overriding the sound. I have sound from the tv (youtube) but no sound from the microphones, If I unplugged the optical cable I lose sound from the tv and get sound from the mics.
Is there a way around this?

Not sure and I´m not with it! Will post tomorrow.
Not sure thats possible because the Chromecast takes the content directly from their servers if I'm not mistaken.
You would have to take the Output of the Audio from the TV or Amp and Mix it all Post Chromecast.
Easiest way....
CCast into TV, TV into Mixer, Mic into Mixer, Mixer into Amp. Amp to Speakers
If your mixer has an Optical Input that can be mixed all the better but most likely your going to be Analog from the TV to the Mixer.
You CAN get a box that will pull Audio out of an HDMI signal to analog as well but it's overkill since the TV will give you the same thing already.
Sounds like it might be a mix of analog and digital in the path. Will wait for tomorrow's update.

No and it wouldn't work well even if it could since there would be no way to sync the two streams to each other.
Wireless Headphones would seem to be the best solution for you provided the TV has an audio out to plug them into.
Actually, there is a way, sort of. Obviously depends on what you're watching, but if you open the video (or the stream from TerrariumTV) in Localcast, it has a checkbox to route audio to phone!
