V6 and Bluetooth
Is it possible to use wireless headphones with the V6? I believe the V6 does not have Bluetooth built-in so it would probably need some kind of dongle. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Re: V6 and Bluetooth
Here's what I told Vince on another thread just yesterday.
https://www.cableforum.uk/board/show...&postcount=129 Spiderplant then told me there's a jack socket...so ignore the bit where I say you need optical. If connecting to the V6 itself you need headphones that have a base station with a normal headphone connector and/or optical. I'm guessing you have existing headphones you were planning on using given your wording. |

This article called How To Connect Headphones To Any TV has answers heavyside. Including Bluetooth.

Re: V6 and Bluetooth
As the V6 apparently has a headphone socket (not got a V6 but you'd hope Spiderplant knows what he's talking about), you can get Bluetooth transmitters that connect to 3.5 mm headphone sockets. No idea if they're any good but Amazon have a large selection.

Re: V6 and Bluetooth
I'd forgotten about Bluetooth transmitters until I found that article (above).
I'll have a look at the selection for myself GrimUpNorth, using a 3.5mm socket they could extend the usefulness of many things. |
Re: V6 and Bluetooth
Personally, I always think that if you can do it, connecting headphones to your TV is the better option.
It avoids any audio sync issues that comes from having the display output and audio output coming from different devices. Though that does depend on the TV and whether the audio connection disconnects the TV speakers or not. |

PS. Amazon have listed several USB Bluetooth dongles that I could plug straight into my TV which might do the job. I don't know how good the sound quality might be. |
Re: V6 and Bluetooth
Headphones directly into the TV normally cut out the audio to the room in my experience. Fine in most circumstances as that's the point.
If you have a hard of hearing person needing personal attention it's probably easier if you come straight from the V6, it doesn't cut out the TV when you plug in optical. My own set-up comes from the V6 with no sync issues I've noticed. Ours is mainly used for late night watching without disturbing others, so I could plug it into the optical on the TV itself, but I like the flexibility and since there's no noticeable delay I keep it as it is. |

Fairly sure the V6 USB can't be used. Sure someone can confirm.

The V6 USB can not be used for data transfer but it is powered. It is switches the power off when the V6 goes into Eco sleep mode.
