Airplay mirroring and airplay speakers

I would like to set up airplay mirroring so that audio gets directed to my airplay speakers and the images to the TV.
LIke this:
iPhone-->ATV-->Airplay speakers
I can airplay audio through the phone directly to the speakers, and I can also select speakers on the ATV and airplay audio from ATV apps directly to those speakers.. I can also airplay audio only from the iPhone through the ATV to the speakers, as long as I'm not mirroring.
However when I turn on mirroring, the audio always goes right to the TV and not to the speakers. I was told that what I'm trying do cannot be done with Mirroring. Is this right? Has anyone got this setup to work?
Would be nice if I can stream shows from a browser to the ATV and then audio to the Airplay speakers. So far I have not been able to get that to work.
Help or advice appreciated, thanks!

For what it's worth, I managed a workaround with VLC and Airfoil to mirror a video to Apple TV and send the audio to AirPlay speakers.   However, there's still the 2 second delay issue for most other sources, like Chrome and games. 
It seems what's missing is a way on the Apple TV to redirect the audio to an AirPlay source while mirroring (holding down select does nothing in this mode, unlike Netflix or Movies where it brings up a source selection menu).  It would be SO COOL if this was implemented in a future ATV update - for all of us with projectors out there.

  • Airplay mirroring does not play audio on airplay speakers

    Hello!
    I just got an airplay enabled hi-fi system and using it with my apple tv = very nice indeed. However, I just upgraded to Mavericks to use mirroring and when I do, the sound comes from the TV speakers and not the airplay system. It seems going into mirroring reverts the airplay setting in the apple tv menu where you select the speakers. I have also tried holding down the select button on the remote which does not bring up a menu with speaker options.
    Does anyone know if it is even possible to use airplay mirroring and have the audio come from airplay speakers?
    Setup:
    Macbook Air (mid '11) running OS X Mavericks v 10.9.1
    Apple TV 3rd gen latest update
    Many thanks,
    Joakim

    Repairing Permissions is a fairly standard Mac maintenance procedure. The particular problem I shared with you involved mirroring from a Macbook Pro laptop which I had just upgraded to Mavericks, partly in order to have the mirroring capability.
    I have used mirroring from my iPad (which doesn't have the transparency of such maintenance tasks as permissions repair on mac computers with OSX) without any issues of any kind, so I can't address how to fix the problem on those machines.
    One reason I wanted to have mirroring on the MacBook Pro was to have the features I prefer on it to the iOS environment on the iPad. Easier typing, easier navigation, and, it must be said, accessible maintenance procedures.
    If you're interested in repairing permissions in OSX on Mac computers, though, I'll be happy to explain it, but you'll find it discussed many, many times on these support fora.
    If your iPhone/iPad have the problem with audio that I had with my MacBook, then I think you should step outside the AirPlay discussions and go directly to the support communities for those devices to learn what, if any, maintenance tasks are available to users. This is beyond my experience.
    I hope you have as much luck with your iOS devices as I did on the computer in this situation!

  • Airplay mirroring and external monitor

    I have an Macbook Pro 15 that I just bought.  I am airplay mirroring to a external monitor.  I have a bluetooth keyboard and touchpad.  When I close the lid on the Macbook after I get the mirroring started, the external monitor goes blank.  When I open the laptop back up, I cannot get anything on the internal screen.  I cannot get it to do anything at all and then I just have to power it down and restart to get anything on the computer screen again.  I would like to know if what I am doing is possible?  Can you airplay mirror and then close the case on the laptop.  THanks

    Here is what I just made work for me - and it isn't perfectly what I want, but at least my students will be able to see what I am coding.
    In the Accessability Panel's Zoom settings I changed from Full Screen to Picture-In-Picture style zooming.
    This works, but I would rather have a full screen zoom.
    A side note: The cursor size, and grey scale work, but the color inversion and high contrast settings do not work on the mirrored display.
    It seems strange.

  • Using Airplay speakers and Iphone with adhoc network?

    As there are more and more Airplay speakers appearing (B&W Zeppelin Air, JBL On Air, Philips Fidelio DS3801W...) i would like to know if there is a way to use those speakers without any additional router in such a way that a direct adhoc network is created so that the Iphone could stream directly to the speakers?
    I am already using various bluetooth speakers, but audio quality is quite compromised with them, therefore i would rather prefer Airplay speakers but without the need of additional router hardware, just speaker and Iphone. Is this possible?
    Thanks, Olaf

    No, it really doesn't.
    This is not a current feature of the ATV.

  • HT4437 Is it possible to zoom in photos when using airplay? It seems not to work at all. I can only zoom in if i use mirroring and even then i have to reconnect mirroring each time I chage an albumor even go from the photo to the album level.

    No.
    I find it extremely frustrating that Apple does not care for such an obvious bug affecting one of the basic funcionalities of AirPlay. Unless, of course, if there's something I don't know - but I've done some research and it seems that plenty of people have same issue and no solution is settled.

  • Mountain Lion, AirPlay Mirroring, and multiple monitors - how to choose display?

    I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.1 with two external monitors connected via Thunderbolt.  I have a 3rd-gen Apple TV on the same network.  I can turn on AirPlay Mirroring and my primary monitor will display on my TV.  However, I would like another monitor mirrored instead.  I have looked but can't seem to find a setting to choose which monitor is mirrored.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

    You can remove the Logmein sound driver.
    You will no longer be able to hear your Mac from your remote machine.
    Start Terminal and paste:
    sudo kextunload /system/library/extensions/logmeinsounddriver64.kext
    I did this long time ago because I was having sound problems on Lion.

  • AirPlay Speakers audio syncing and other issues.

    For awhile I have been having a lot of issues with AirPlay Speakers (that is, sending the audio from my Apple TV to my AirPort Express while syncing the video). These include:
    Almost any app can have the audio go out of sync with the video. This usually can be fixed by pausing and playing again.
    WatchABC Live repeating commercials and not going back to the show. (ABC 7 WABC NY on Optimum)
    Certainly not the worst issue to have, but Hulu Plus will skip most commercials.
    And now, Showtime Anytime is guaranteed to have the audio go out of sync for both live and on demand shows and it will not go back to normal unless I switch to my TVs speakers.
    These issues have occurred since I had a 2nd gen Apple TV, and now I have a 3rd gen (Rev. A) with Apple TV version 6.2. The AirPort Express (802.11n 2nd gen) is right next to the Apple TV and connected to my AirPort Extreme via Ethernet, extending the network. I have tried connecting via Ethernet and it only seemed to lessen the issues slightly.

    Chris,
    I also own a T400 and had huge issues with skipping audio. Try the following:
    1) Uninstall Intel Storage Manager and let Vista use the default driver for disc controller (I presume yours is by default in AHCI mode just as mine was).
    2) Then go to Control Panel -> Sound, select Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221 and after clicking on Options, select Disable all enhancements under Enhancements tab (this is a time-proven trick I learned while using a Dell at work).
    Pls let me know it this works for you.

  • Can i play cds through my Bose Airplay speakers without reducing to mp3

    I have burned cd files in abundance, but if i wanted to play a cd without burning it to Itunes, will it play through Bose Airplay speakers?

    I can play music from my ios devices without turning tv on.
    When you select airplay, then select mirroring on, it turns the apple tv on. I then select a song from my music and it plays through my separate sound system. (Obviously not the tv as it's not on lol)
    If I then turn off airplay and mirroring off, it does not however turn off the ATV but this will shut down to stand by on its own anyway after the preset time.
    I'm sure this would work with spot iffy also.

  • HT201335 Airplay speakers not available , The speak Apple TV is currently used by someone else

    Hi, i bought apple TV and we are getting error message Airplay speakers not available , The speak Apple TV is currently used by someone else so can you lot tell me that how stop this

    Classroom scenario:  We have Apple TVs in classrooms.  If a teacher is using the Apple TV to display their device & forgets to disconnect, leaves the room . . . next teacher comes in . . . if they still see the other device being mirrored they can kick them off by pressing the menu button on the remote.  However, when they then try to connect, they get the "In use by someone else" message.  Only solution we've found then is to restart the Apple TV.  So, is this truly the only solution?
