One of the best option to send system wide audio to a Network Reciever is to get a Chromecast Audio dongle, connect it to Reciever via toslink cable if you reciever supports it and using "Cast App" send the audio to cast audio. Amazing audio quality.

I use the root App airaudio. Streaming to dlna Speakers. Needs root and the magisk airaudio Module.

Hey there,
AirAudio has been kicked by Google because they didn't like a link to a rooting-website inside the description anymore, written 7 years ago.
Its successor is called AirMusic and allows to stream some apps (eg. YouTube, YT Music, Deezer, PodcastAddict , radio.de, Plex and more, you have to try it out) without root on Android 10+.
On rooted devices, all audio can be transmitted.

bluetooth??

is it possible to stream audio as in music from phone if vehical only supports hands free bluetooth
Check the market... there are apps that send audio to a hands free Bluetooth headset(mono) the same might work through your vehicle... my stereo (Kenwood dnx5120) has a Bluetooth module, but i can send texts through it as well as stream audio, make calls etc... but even a basic setup usually allows bt audio... unless it pairs only as a hands free headset, if that is what yours does I'd look into some of the apps on the market, I'm almost certain there are apps that allow you to listen to mp3s Pandora etc through a mono headset

does any app actually work?

Bluetooth Audio Support?

Does the Nexus Player support Bluetooth audio? I'm designing an HTPC for my folks and I'd like to go as cordless as possible. The speakers are across the room and are Bluetooth-capable.
Has anyone tried BT audio with the Player?

I tried Some headphones jabra revo and could not get them to show up when discovering
I tried with the Vamp and could not get that to show up when discovering either. I was hoping to do something similar, really hope this can be added with a firmware update or custom rom.
Couldn't get my bt skullcandys to connect either
Same here, cant find my logitech bluetooth audio receiver. This is huge disapointment but i hope google hears us and can fix this with an update.
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!

There is an app I use on my phone which may fix this problem. It's called Sound About Pro. It allows you to route your audio to different places... Like blue tooth or Handset Speakers or Headphones.

I just installed SoundAbout on my nexus player.. I tried routing the media audio to my connected A2DP Bluetooth headset, but unfortunately I'm not getting any sound
Besides, the application is throwing some exception every time it's started.. maybe this is the reason..
I literally just hooked my player up for the first time and the very first thing I tried to do was connect my jaybird x headphones to it and they won't connect. I just assumed since the box had bluetooth and was an android device that it would support bluetooth audio. My quick search just now has revealed there is no bluetooth audio function enabled :crying: I got this explicitly for this function, so this is useless until someone finds a work around or google enables it. Anyone want to buy a brand new N player from me?
I'd try this trick from the FireTV forum but don't have the time right now.

Sideloaded and tried it. It opens and appears to show normal settings, but crashes when I click anything. I'll keep trying things but so far I haven't been able to get this or ES File Explorer method to work :/

ES File Explorer can only pair your A2DP bluetooth headphones with the nexus player.. Make sure you set your headphones in pairing mode before you do a scan for bluetooth devices.. Once found, just click on it and that's it, pairing will be made immediately.

Okay so, I found out that the current SoundAbout released on the Google Play Store is still not compatible with Android 5.0. However, they added the support for that in the latest beta version. I'm unable to post the link, so just search for "SoundAbout beta" and you will get it from their official user board.
I tried sideloading the beta app on the nexus player.. Good thing: no more exceptions showing up.. Bad thing, still unable to route audio to headphones even when forcing media audio to use A2DP bluetooth.. plus, playing videos like youtube simply fails!
I tried that SoundAbout app too - but no luck.
I can't believe they don't support Bluetooth headphones. The only reason I was still using the Roku 3 is because the remote has a audio jack. I thought I could use the Nexus Player with Bluetooth headphones :/
Android M has got native support for A2DP Bluetooth streaming. You can flash the developer preview right now or wait for the release version in October/November. I wish Lollipop had this feature for AndroidTV to start with.
Yeah, same here, bought this device to be used with bt soundbar and projector ... all wireless ... can't believe this isn't working. Any tweaks ?

Just updated my Nexus Player to Android M (Preview), and it works perfectly with my Jabra Move Wireless headset now ^^
So realistically I could just send the audio to my phone and use regular jack headphones

And how would you do that?
EDIT: Updating to the Preview of Android M now. I need to use Bluetooth audio...
EDIT2: Bluetooth audio works on the Preview but still too buggy. The apps I use crash. I guess I'll have to wait for the final stable release.
Nexus player control volume from external remote
What about to control the volume with external remote control that have the volume buttons?

[ROOT] Video on the FireTV, Audio on your phone

After seeing a post on reddit about someone wondering if this is possible I decided to try if I could get this to work. Could be useful if you could listen to the audio by headphones plugged into your phone and watching on the big screen. Found a solution quite fast in BubbleUPnP and using it's ability to send the audio to a DLNA renderer, this feature is called Audio Cast. You will need:
-Rooted FireTV with Xposed installed
-BubbleUPnP and the license, or you will be limited to 20 minutes audio streaming per app Launch.
-Mouse plugged into your FireTV, or droidmote/wukong/etc
Install BubbleUPnP and the license on your FireTV and enable BubbleUPnP in Xposed, then reboot your FireTV. Next you will need to install BubbleUPnP on any other DLNA renderer app on your phone/tablet/whatever you want to stream the audio to. Open BubbleUPnP on your phone so that the version on your FireTV can find it. Then open up BubbleUPnP on your FireTV, open the sidebar and as the renderer select your phone. Next to the renderer you can see a switch which you can use to turn Audio cast Off/On.
I would recommend first starting your movie/episode in XBMC before enabling Audio Cast, this seemed to give me the best result. So play your media in XBMC, enable Audio Cast and go back to XBMC and resume. You will notice there is a delay in the Audio. Use the Audio offset to correct for this. I needed to set the Audio ahead by 1.8 seconds to get it to sync up properly. However this can vary quite a bit between plays and it can be tricky to find the correct offset to fix the delay.
If you experience audio drops try increasing the audio buffer length in the BubbleUPnP Audio Cast settings on your FireTV. Not a perfect solution but seems to work well enough for the occasional movie when someone else is sleeping in the same room.
This is the response I got from bubbleupnp back last year when I was trying to get this to work.
Hi,
Audio Cast cannot technically be used to send synced audio with video. There is no way around it.
The only valid use of Audio Cast with videos is if you are only interested in the audio part of the video.
Cheers,
Bubblesoft

Tried as much as I could, it wasn't a solution. Ended up with better results with xbmc and audio delay with BT headphones. Until a real.solution comes ....
If you have bluetooth headphones there is obviously no need for anything like this. I don't have any so listening through my phone can be useful at times.
There will always be a delay if you stream the audio to your phone while watching on the FireTV. However XBMC audio offset works well and it usually doesn't take too much effort to get the video and audio to sync up.

Yoga 3 Pro - stream audio to receiver

Hello, can anyone try to use projector and receiver at the same time? I have Yamaha RX-V475 and want to send audio with airplay or upnp while watching movie on projector. I found app AirAudio, but don't want to root device. Solution can be app for video playing, which can stream only audio...but I didn't find something like this

Have you tried the audio-only version of Chromecast? Don't know if it will work or not. Otherwise cable is probably best option.

Streaming Audio from Amazon Fire TV stick to phone

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a way to stream Audio from firetv stick to my phone via Bluetooth or WiFi and watch movies without disturbing others at night. Any help on this will be appreciated
Absolutely, this is a pretty easy one...
I have a Vizio Smart1080 blah blah etc etc... On my phone I've downloaded SmartCast Mobile found within Googles Slay Store. Within Vizio's settings, you can set the TV remote up as the firestick by use of CEC, which allows your TV remote to sync to the fire remote controlling complete functionality. Then, I setup SmartCast Mobile by following instructions that were given after the the setup of SM on my phone on the TV's end of things. Basically If your Tv is 'smart', yes. there is a way </BushDidIt>
Stereo Bluetooth is the best option
You can use any stereo bluetooth headset with firetv and the audio will be transmitted from stick to the headset.

I'm struggling to set up some new headphones. Amazon state they don't support headphones with a microphone.
Any workaround please?
