Hdmi and bluetooth audio - Xoom General

Is there a way to push audio through the bluetooth even when connected to hdmi?
I run on the treadmill and need to use a wireless headset to hear the movie I am watching better.

as soon as i get a hdmi cable ill test this for you.

I do know (because I've already tested it) that you can plug in via HDMI and a wired headset, and the audio will go through the headset.
I hate Bluetooth headsets, so I can't test that for you.

Bluetooth or App that will let you talk on Fring?

Hi,
I was wondering if there's specific bluetooth or an app that will trick phone into thinking that wired headphones are connected and send it to bluetooth?
I've tried using Jawbone Icon with fring but it does not send audio thru the bluetooth. Sprint TV and music play just fine on bluetooth.
Any help is appreciated!

Car stereo that allows simultaneous bluetooth connections?

Does anyone know of a car stereo that allows (2) simultaneous bluetooth connections? Ive searched and obviously, they will allow multiple connections... but not at the same time.
Here is why I ask. I would like to use my Tab in its new Samsung car mount for media playing. But since I also still need to have a phone, I would like THAT to connect also.
Im asking for too much arent I? Anyone try a 1/8th inch audio plug to RCA cable? I guess I could plug the TAB in via the AUX port on my car stereo when its in the dock.
Anyone had any success? Any ideas? Am I crazy?

My Sony DSXS300BTX connects to both my Captivate for phone and my GTab for music. It will switch source when a call comes in, and resume playing when the call is done (can't recall if it pauses or just mutes the music though).
My girl's Kenwood DNX5160 can also do dual BT connections for phone+music.
Thanks guys, I will check these out... I was dreading having to use the wired aux output!

Wireless headset with the nexus 7?

So I'm looking at 2 wireless headsets to use with my tablet. No clue if it's even possible, but that's why I'm asking you guys.
The first link is to the official ps3 wireless over the ear headset.

Second link is to the Sony 900mhz over the ear wireless headset.

Blue tooth isn't supported on either one. The Ps3 set has a mic and is strictly usb
The Sony set has no mic and uses a stereo jack.

The PS3 one would probably need specific drivers and the USB transmitter would need to be plugged into an OTG cable attached to the tablet. Specific drivers probably rule that one out. The Sony one that has a stereo plug would work if you used a Bluetooth Stereo adapter http://www.amazon.com/Jabra-CLIPPER-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B0040X33SE/ref=pd_cp_cps_1 Samsung, Sony, Motorola, etc make similar devices. You wear the bluetooth adapter and plug your headphones into the adapter. I use a Motorola Soundpilot and Bose headset they work quite well within the limitations of BT for music and games.
I got this last week. So far so good.

[Q] Will a separate Bluetooth adapter for voice vs. audio work together?

I'm working on a DIY project that requires the audio bluetooth have higher power (wattage) to drive the speakers. Regular bluetooth "headset" (voice & audio) adapters just don't have much power in them.
A work-around could be to have two different Bluetooth adapters working at the same time. One would be for microphone only (voice). The second would be an amplifier for the audio.
Now unfortunately, I can't just hook up an amplifier in-line with a normal Bluetooth headset adapter because that would nullify the full-duplex capability.
So my question to you guys is, is Android capable of connecting to two different Bluetooth adapters at the same time? One for microphone and one for speakers, and have them work together without hiccups?
I know it can do two separate for phone and media. But the device will kick the media Bluetooth aside for the higher priority of the phone. Can you some how use an otg cable to Bluetooth adapter as another option?

From what you're saying, it sounds like when a phone call comes in, the mic will work. But the phone will no longer send the audio (phone audio in this case) to the speakers using the media bluetooth connection.
Bummer. And I am afraid you might be right.
No, cords are not allowed at all.
This is for a helmet setup.
Thanks for the heads up.
It does

Yes, this does work. I use my Anker BT to talk and my Mercedes BT for Audio at the same time. This works really well (ROM is stock 4.3)

Not ideal I realize, but you can get a Bluetooth adapter for your TV for about $30
TaoTronics TT-BA01 Wireless Portable Bluetooth Stereo Music Transmitter (Not A Bluetooth Receiver) for 3.5mm Audio Devices (iPod, MP3/MP4, TV, Kindle Fire, Media Players...) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004B8GF7Y/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_AYaQub10TC9DQ
my bluetooth beanie wont pair either.
Unfortunately my LG 3d tv doesnt even have a 3.5mm port! only optical or hdmi
Pairing Successful!
I found a workaround to pair my LG HBS-830 since doing a regular bluetooth search in the nexus player doesn't detect any headphones.. However, I'm now looking for another workaround to actually route the audio to the headphones!
To pair your headphones, just install ES File Explorer, and when you open it, there is an option to use bluetooth to connect to other devices in order to transfer files. However, when you do a scan for devices, the headphones actually show up (when set in pairing mode), and by clicking on it, it will automatically pair and appear in the nexus player's list of paired bluetooth devices.
By switching your headphones off/on, it automatically connects to your nexus player and even shows connected under the list of bluetooth devices, however no audio is routed to the headphones by default.. it is still routed to TV speakers.
So here you go, pairing is done.. let's now try to route audio to those headphones!
Hope this helps!

i was able to pair my headphones but they show up as a remote...its pretty silly not to ahve bluetooth audio built into this device. how about a "the wife is asleep" mode lol
My pom100 headphones pair just fine but I wanted a Bluetooth receiver I could use with my audio technicas. I have an mpow I use for the car and I tried using it with the nexus player. It can see it but cannot pair. Anyone have a receiver that DOES work?
