Hello everyone,
I was wondering if there was a way of casting the video to the CC and get the audio though the phone so I can listen to headphones.
Thanks in advance

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!

I assume some one here may have the same idea as me so hopefully i can get some help.
I want to stream music from a multi-CD/radio player to speakers in multiple rooms, what is the best way for me to do that? Will bluetooth work? And can you connect a bluetooth receiver and transmitter without a visual interface will they do it automatically? Also sound quality needs to be good, but not world class?
Any thoughts?
thanks XDA
Hi all,
First off, thanks for the help.
I'm trying to cast a local file from my PC to the TV in my living room. The video plays fine, but there is no audio stream to the TV. There is also no option to turn the audio on at all within the browser.
Any ideas what the issue or extension I need?
Thank you!

The Cast extension should automatically redirect audio to the Chromecast when casting a tab or the full screen.
Go to this page in Chrome

Cast the entire desktop to see if you get no audio at all, audio on TV, audio on computer, or audio on both?
Play a second then pause it. You should be able to determine if you get audio from the PC and TV, because the PC playback will be immediate, while the TV playback will follow a second or two later.
I get audio on both[/]b PC and TV doing this.
Now, cast just the tab and do the same.
I get audio only on the TV doing this.

If you are trying to view a MKV file, it will not have audio at this point.

Make sure Chromecast is plugged into your Receiver, not the TV, then it's up the to the receiver to mix the HDMI audio from Chromecast with its microphone input. She's not using a microphone on the iPad, right?
I believe people use VR along with a Headphone/earphone, as well as they experience the VR through their 5.1 / 7.1 Surround speaker setups, atleast thats what i saw on youtube where people mentioned they get an immersive experience of the VR when you have the music coming from all the directions on their external speakers/soundbars.
So whats required for this. Currently am hooked up on a 7.1 channel home theater setup, Denon 4311CI AVR, HTPC (Home theater Personal computer) Chromecast, appleTV.. is this possible? Whats required?
Never mind i was able to figure this out.
Here is how its done..

You can also use bluetooth. My 5.1 theater system is kinda old with no bluetooth but I have a Bluetooth stereo adapter that works great plugged into my front external audio input jack.
Chromecast
if you turn on screen casting with chrome cast before plugging in your phone to the headset it will send audio to the tv. Its not perfect by any means and the video freezes right away but its a simple way to have more immersive sound.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has managed to get Audio Passthrough working. So if you've got a movie file which has DTS or Dolby Digital sound, and you connect your phone with a HDMI dongle to your Audio receiver which can process DTS or Dolby Digital, to actually get surround sound out of it.
I've tried VLC and MX player, none worked. If I connect the exact same equipment to my laptop, it does work. So it must be either the video apps or the phone. I've tried multiple settings in the apps (of course I've enabled audio passthrough), didn't change anything.
Any help on this?
Thanks!

Or a codec. Have you tried hardware encoding Vs software encoding within the player? Mx has this option for sure.
There are some other codecs out there but haven't bothered to test.
Not a great call for surround sound unless you're projecting onto a screen in which case the hdmi would take care of this for you.

Yeah I've tried HW vs SW encoding, didn't change anything.
My goal is to connect the phone to an external receiver, and then a projector.

So won't hdmi carry the audio like that? Itll be down to the player really.
VLC with a codec pack. Or concert the file to something more compatible.

It would if the player passes it through, but it seems like VLC just down samples the audio to stereo. If the video file has DTS VLC plays it in stereo, so I don't need a codec pack, otherwise it wouldn't play it at all.
Have you find a solution?
