Bluetooth Headset and Headphone audio out at same time?

My GF and I were on our way to NYC on Acela and decided to watch a movie to kill time. I inadvertenly forgot to bring my headphone splitter, so I figured I could plug in one set of earphones into the headphone jack and use my bluetooth wirelessely. Upon doing so, the Mac Pro brand new, would only let me select one output via sound preferences. Any ideas or works arounds to allow audio out to both headphone jack and wireless? Is it possible to attach 2 bluetooth sets for wireless capabilities to watch movies?

Yeah I do it. I use a Jabra bluetooth adaptor that uses the headphone port. Then I tuck the luetooth unit under my Marware Relay wristband.

Can I connect multiple bluetooth headsets to my iPod at the same time?

Can I connect multiple bluetooth headsets to my iPod at the same time?

After 1 or 2 reboot system I managed was enter my MacBook Pro my AppleID and it is connected I managed so to have the flow of "Stream Photo" from my iPhone 4 S to my iPad 2 on the MacBook. But incomprehensible how the function "find my Mac" not recognize the MacBook Pro in "iCloud.com" or App in the iPhone 4 / iPad 2. Thus I do little "see the iMac, iPhone 4 and my iPad 2" and not the Macbook Pro !?!

Can two bluetooth headsets access the ipad at the same time, for example, to watch a movie together on an airplane trip? does bluetooth work when the ipad is in airplane mode?

This article: http://www.iphonefaq.org/archives/97903 helped to clear up confusion I had re your point
when Airplane mode is on you can turn on either or both wifi and bluetooth
It makes it clear that airplane mode turns off processes involving cellular networks, which doubtless involve rather strong transmissions, while allowing others such as wi-fi and Bluetooth. I'm puzzled though why the iPod rather than the iPhone has the airplaine mode when it has no cellular capacity. Perhaps it's there but doesn't actually do anything other than making it possible to conform to a request to switch into airplane mode, and display an airplane icon to satisfy flight attendants who are checkng up on you!

Recording and playing Audio at the same time

Hi,
Having problem with a MMAPI imp.
The simplest way of doing it is to start one thread playing a audio file of any kind.. As it is playing start a other thread that start a audio recording.
As soon as the audio recording is allowed to record (Security promt) the audio playback stops. And the playerListstner sends a END_OF_MEDIA event.
So my question is: Is there a way of doing playback and recording at the same time or is this a limit on the phone or the MMAPI?
This has been tested on Nokia N90 and SE W550i with same reults
Cheers
Kenth

Stereo Bluetooth and headphone jack at the same time?

I'm looking forward to the A2DP support in the firmware 3.0 update. I plan to get a motorokr s7hd. I'd like to be able to output audio from my iPhone 3G to my car via the headphone jack. Can I also connect a stereo Bluetooth headset and just use that in the event of a phone call? Will it mute/pause the music when a call happens?

You can set the iPod app to output audio to your choice of a BT headset, or the jack output (not simultaneously). A BT headset can still get call audio if paired, but working in one channel only - no stereo.

HT201335 Apple TV AirPlay to AirPort Express and Still Keep Apple TV Audio Out at Same Time?

I want my TV to keep audio and ALSO send audio to and AirPort Express at the same time.
It seems that I can choose either Apple TV audio OR send to AirPlay device. I want both!
How can I send audio to both and AirPlay device and still keep audio on the HDMI connected TV?

>Did Apple ditch the opportunity when they introduced Airplay and switched firmware ?
The first gen ATV has not been supported for getting close to like 5 years now. So it does not have any of the newer features. I still like it's user interface over the new one though.

Win 8 - How to use StereoMix and Headphones Mic at the same time?

I am using Windows 8 64 bit and believe I may have an IDT driver problem.
I need to enable StereoMix and my Headphones Mic at the same time. I know this was previously possible with windows xp and windows 7.
What happens is If I enable either Headphones Mic (Logitech headphones with Mic) or StereoMix the other one becomes " current;ly unavailable" I cannot get them both to work together. I can get StereoMix and the Internal Mic to work together ( both enabled at the same time) but the sound quality is bad because the internal mic picks up noises from the PC. I need to have both my headphones mic and stereo mix enabled at the same time.
The driver I'm using is the one provided by HP with the laptop. It is called sp59620.exe
Would another IDT driver solve the problem? Can you think of another reason this is not working?
Here are my specs.
System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavillion G7-2251dx
OS Windows 8 64 bit
CPU AMD A-8 4500M
Memory 8 Gigabytes DDR3 sdram
Graphics Card Discrete ATI Radeon HD 7640G with 2 Gigs
Sound Card IDT Audio
Monitor(s) Displays 17.3
Screen Resolution 1600x900
If you cannot help, where else should I look? i have tried Windows and Microsoft forums and no one can give me an answer.
Thank you.

I have tried the instructions in that video and I cant get passed the very bad feedback i get when telling my recording device to Listen. His secone instruction from his notes here
["Right Click the Realtech HD audio device and set as default if its not already.
(note you may want to turn off any powered speakers you may have to prevent feedback.)
-Select the Recording Tab at the top of the window.
-Select the Stereo Mix device and set it to default if its not already.
-Right click and select Properties.
-Select the Listen Tab at the top of the window.
-Change the drop-down box to the entry for USB headset and check the Listen to this device checkbox.
-click ok to dismiss the window.
-Right click on the USB headset microphone device and select properties.
-Select the Listen Tab at the top of the window.
-Change the drop-down box to the entry for the Realtech HD Audio device and check the Listen to this device checkbox.
-click ok to dismiss the window.
So, essentially, the game audio will play through the Realtec, your mic is also set to play to the Realtec. both audio streams are now part of Stereo Mix. Stereo Mix is being listened to by your headset allowing you to hear the game and your voice.]

Don't know about turning off any powered speakers.. the only speakers I have besides the headphones are the internal laptop speakers. I get the same feedback if i have the headphones plugged in or not.

How to split video and extracted audio clip at same time?

I imported 10 min of DV from my Sony HC96 camcorder to iMovie 6.
I selected a video clip and split it using cmd-T but the extracted audio clip below it did not split. How can I split both the video and underlying audio clip so I can drag the edge of the new video clip for editing by direct trimming and keep the audio dialogue in sync. I have already gotten the clip volume levels right in the extracted audio.
This seems pretty basic editing but I must be missing something.
thanks, ralph

Thanks, Sue. Let me see that I have this right. I split the video then the audio. I then selected and trimmed the video to the remove the 10-15 seconds I wanted to remove. To keep the dialogue in sync with the speaker's lips, I then selected and trimmed the audio to the same time as I trimmed the video. Then I dragged the audio clip back up to the new start of the trimmed video clip. I did this and the dialogue and lips seem to be in sync.
I guess originally I had looked for a solution where I cut both clips at the same time and trimming one trimmed the other. But now I see I just need to do them separately. Thanks for the help, Sue!

Hi Ralph:
You can't do both at the same time, but you can do
them one right after the other. Highlight the audio
and split it after you split the video and be sure to
keep the playhead in the same position.

IPhone 5 question about Bluetooth headsets and headphone jack audio out.

I have an iPhone 5. When I'm connected to a bluetooth headset, can I still use the headphone jack to play audio through my stereo between calls without having to disconnect the headphone jack for calls or shut off the headset for tunes?

when one connects a wires headset it it mutes the internal speaker
when one connects a bluetooth headset it mutes the internal speaker and any wired connected headsets

TS4113 Is there a terminal or other type of workaround to allow sound to come from the HDMI and headphone jack at the same time?

I have a late 2012 Mini, running 10.8.2. I have a set of powered speakers plugged into the headphone jack. My TV is running on a direct HDMI connection. I can only stream sound through HDMI, or even select it as an output, if I unplug my headphone speaker plug. Apple's knowlege base says this is the case. I am looking for a way to have both plugged in all the time, and have the sound mirrored to both.
I use the speakers for itunes music, system sounds, skype, etc.. The HDMI sound is for steaming content to the TV. I don't want to have to reach around behind the computer and unplug/plug each time I switch, for a multitude of reasons. Any ideas out there? Google wasn't getting me very far. Maybe a terminal solution of some sort? Thanks in advance.

it seems that m1r3k found a very good workaround, at least for the Mid 2010 Mac mini models (that I'm using right now). I don't know if it works also with more recent Mac mini models.
Re: After upgrading to lion, cant select HDMI sound setting
Open Audio MIDI Setup.app in /Applications/Utility, click the + (plus) button in the bottom left corner of the window and choose "Create Multi-Output Device". In the new device settings tick the HDMI "Use" checkbox and you're done. Simply go to the usual System Preferences Audio panel and choose the newly created device, without the need to unplug the audio cable from the back of the Mac mini. You can also name the new audio device as you want.
NOTE:
This is only a workaround for a deliberate choice made by Apple on OS X Lion 10.7.2 and beyond:
Mac mini: About HDMI audio and headphones
Please let Apple know (here or here) how this has made things unnecessary awkward for users and needs to be fixed (these forums don't count, they are not read by Apple's employees)!

Speaker and Headphone working at a same time on Pavilion G6-2342dx

Hello,
I have Pavilion G6-2342dx laptop, the problem is that 2 days ago suddenly my laptop has stopped recognizing headphonnes when I plug-in it in the audio jack. Though sound is coming also from the headphones, but my system isn't detecting the plugged-in headphones. I have tried different headphones, all are working on other PCs but not in mine.
I ran diagnostic test in BIOS, it also isn't detecting when I plug-in my headphones.
HP Pavilion G6-2343DX

Hello @Saad4k ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand that sound is coming from both the headphones and speakers on your notebook, and it appears as though the headphones are not detected.
It would help to know which operating system you are using. To see which version of Windows you are using click here: Which Windows operating system am I running?
Also, you may notice that your notebook has 2 headphone jacks. One is for headset onlyand one is for a headset with a microphone .
Make sure you're using the headset only jack to disable the speakers when connected.
Also, update the audio drivers with this download: IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver.
Let me know if that works for you.

Phone and Broadband Drops out at same times every ...

At exactly 9.49am and 15.10 every day our phones go off for a few seconds and our broadband resets itself, if we are on the phone the other person is cut off!
So far we have had five engineer visits and including a RANE engineer and nobody has a clue why this is happening.
BT have even fitted a filter to our master socket and had an engineer monitor it in Manchester! ( we are in somerset) Still no clues.
This originally started as a broadband speed problem after moving to BT (which has now been fixed)!
Has anyone experienced this ? What was the solution ?
Helllllpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

I have the same blueparrott headset headset with the directions. Actually reading them just fixed my iphone pairing issue.
Here they are in case u still need them along with what I needed to do to get mine to work with iphone 4
Pair Headset with Phone
Turn off headset off
Hold down headset's MFB (large top button) until red & blue lights flash and you hear 2 rising tones, followed by 4 more tones. Must wait for all before you release the MFB button!! (I had my hubby hold the MFB while I waited for the tones since both come from the headset
Release the MFB and follow your phone's instructions to place it in 'bluetooth' discoverable mode. With the iphone4, go to "General" and then "Bluetooth" and turn indicator to "ON".
This is where my issue occurred as the phone could not find the bluetooth, although it worked with my LG phone. So after trying it several times thinking I was nuts and that the issue was with the iphone, I looked further in the blueparrot's directions and found this step that fixed the issue.
Reset Paired Devices List
On the bluetooth, press and hold down both the volume up & volume down buttons for 5-6 seconds. A double beep will be heard and the list will be reset. Pairing info for devices previously paired will be lost.
The bluetooth directions provide this as step 4 but that did not work for my phone (see below)
4. Once the phone discovers the headset, select "pair" and enter "0000" code and that when pairing is complete the blue light on the headset will stop flashing and phone will prompt you to 'connect'.
This is what I had to do after resetting the device list on my bluetooth
4. My iphone instanting discovered the headset and displayed it under 'Devices" but showed a message that it was 'not connected'. Once I selected the device on the iphone by pressing on it then it changed to "connected".
Even when I turn the bluetooth on and off the device remains on the list and alll I do is select it to connect and disconnect after I turn on my blueparrott bluetooth
I hope this helps others!
