How do I play TV audio through AirPlay?

I have several Airport Expresses and want to the TV audio to be heard throughout my house.  Specifically for sporting events when I would like the audio in the kitchen and outside to be synced with the TV in the living room.
Thanks.

I assume that you mean that you want to stream the audio output from your TV to an AirPlay speaker (AirPort Express Base Station) ... correct?
If so, unfortunately, that is not possible. AirPlay requries an iTunes source for audio. Unless the TV source is on your computer or iOS device, you will not be able to use AirPlay to stream it.

  • How do i play video simultaneously through airplay and on iPhone

    Hi, I'm currently using an iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.2, and i require playback of video via AirPlay to a projector from here and it works perfectly fine with a wifi plug-in bought separately. However, i wish to have playback on both the projector screen and my iPhone, but iPhone only shows a TV-out screen. My teacher says it could be a mechanism to help the phone save on energy during playback by choosing to only play the video through AirPlay and not on the iPhone Called Apple Support but i didn't really get the answer that i needed. Will this problem be solved if i used an Apple TV instead? Or are there existing third-party apps available that will help me achieve my desired effect?

  • How can I play my ipad through my TEAC speaker

    I have a 2/3 year old single TEAC speaker with no airplay functionality. How can I play my ipad through this speaker, preferably without wires
    Thanks

    If you're just looking to play audio, the easiest way is to buy an AirPort Express and connect your stereo to the miniplug jack, then play using AirPlay. That's how I do it! And as an added bonus, it can extend your wireless network.

    An AppleTV would work too, if you're also looking to stream video.

  • How can I play an audio CD with QT 7.1.6?

    I want to play an audio CD with QuickTime 7.1.6.
    When I click on Open file and select the CD drive, change th file type to Audio Files and mark "Open as read-only" nothing is displayed. When I change to "All Files (.)" the tracks are showed with an ".cda" extension. When I dobleclick on a track, I get the Error -2048: the file is not a movie file.
    How can I play an audio CD with QuickTime 7.1.6?

    I confirm your issue as I just tried an audio CD in my XP laptop. "All Files" showed only the 44 byte .cda files and no others. QuickTime couldn't open them (error -2048).
    I also tried "Open File" with version 7 Pro and it couldn't open.
    Odd that I get the option to open using iTunes and it opens and plays just fine. Since iTunes uses the QuickTime engine I would have thought QuickTime could read the files directly.
    The same audio CD inserted in my Mac allowed me to double click any track and it opened directly in QuickTime Player. The files show as .aiff files measured in MB's.
    Windows users could open an audio CD in iTunes and then convert to .aiff (no compression) and then open the .aiff in QuickTime.
    I guess I should have tried myself before getting your hopes up. I apologize.

  • How do I play Apple TV through auxiliary speaker system?

    Please help. I am trying to use my Apple TV to play movies with the sound instead of going through the TV through a speaker system. The only Input for the speaker is a Female Auxiliary. I do not have an Auxiliary Output with my TV. Is it possible to run the audio through my AirTunes Express Auxiliary? That is how I play music through my computer into the speakers. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

    The Apple TV outputs a digital signal over an optical cable, you would need to convert this to an analog signal for your sound system. You can do this with a DAC (Example Only -Not a recommendation or suggestion that this is suitable in your circumstances).

  • AppleTV 3rd - Update 5.2 (6025): No Audio through Airplay

    Hi folks,
    An acquainted of mine just updated his ATV to 5.2 (6025) and after that, no audio will play through Airplay.
    ATV 3rd.
    Samsung TV/ Display.
    Performed troubleshooting:
    1 - Restart/ Restore of ATV Software;
    2 - Disabled Dolby Audio from ATV Settings;
    3 - Put ATV to sleep, so it would be like a "SMC in a Mac"';
    4 - Tried to research for downgrade links, which later on I discarded as a possibility (because I tested on a lab the Airplay with the same software 5.2 (6025) and it worked just fine. The only difference was the Display brand (LG in this case).
    5 - At this point, the only thing I can think about is: HDMI is working for video (mirroring works properly with Macbook). I thought the HDMI might not be carrying audio signals.
    Any clues or workarounds?
    At the meantime I will suggest him a new HDMI cable.
    Thanks.

    Honestly, this is a WAG but try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  • How can I get synched audio through the computer rather than camera in FCE?

    There does not seem to be an easy way to listen to FCE audio through the computer's setup for internal or external speakers. I have for years used Detour to route all of my audio through an M-Audio Firewire 410 interface, and then on to my home stereo system. I then route all systems sounds and sounds in apps like iMail through the internal speaker. This works great. Except with Final Cut Express. For quite a while I could not do anything except play through a firewire connected to an attached Sony PC100 digital video camera, plugging headphones into it's jack.
    After many hours and reading many strings on this and other discussion boards, and even reading the product manual, I tried sending FCE through the computer speaker and sure enough it works. By that reasoning, I had Sound Prefs send all audio through the m-Audio setup and that works. Except now I must listen to all of the system sounds that way as well.
    OK, I could live with that for my editing sessions, except that now I am experiencing a sound synch delay of around one second. It's all fine when I switch back to the camera as the monitor, but not when routed through, what should be the better sound setup, having the comouter send the soud via the m-audio and stereo.
    G5 dual 2Mgz   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   m-audio firewire 410; 1.5G DDR SRAM;

    In final cut, you want the audio to be following the same path as the video - otherwise, as you have experienced, there are processing delays.
    If you are sending your video out firewire to an external monitor, the audio should follow. Take the audio off of the A/DV converter and route it to your speakers (or amp & speakers) from there.
    good luck.

  • How do you play YouTube audio with the screen off with iPod 5th gen?

    I used to own a 2nd gen iPod touch, which ran on an ios 4.2.1 system, that allowed me to play YouTube with the screen off. Ever since I got iPod 5 which came with ios 7, let's say I am kinda still getting the hang of how everything works. I still would like to play YouTube while the screen is off, but seem to not know how. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? It's running on ios 8, so if you could help me with this, I would gladly appreciate it!

    Hi there, you can download itube, it's in the app store, and that allows you to save youtube videos for offline play. Also, you can play youtube audio with the screen off, even without a third party app. Click on a video. When it's playing, press the lock button. Press it again, to wake the device up. You should see your video on the front of the display, with a play button. Click it, and it will start playing even if the device is off. Hope I helped, ~Samuel.

  • Why won't imovie stream my audio through airplay?

    I'm using iMovie 10.0.1 on a MacBook Pro with Mavericks. I made a small movie with four or five songs as audio. When I use AirPlay to stream to the tv, the movie shows fine, but the audio is only coming from the MacBook speakers. Anyone know what's up?
    Thanks!

    Well, here's some good news!
    Looks like a feature of Mountain lion that didn't make the front page solves my problem. To get movie audio over Airplay, on OSX 10.8 go to Audio and MIDI Setup app, make sure you have the Audio Setup window open (Window - Show Audio Window) and if your Airport or other Airplay device is online it should appear in the list of audio IO devices on the left hand side.
    Right click on the Airplay icon and select "Use this Device For Sound Output" and away you go. iTunes (10.7 at least) seems to be smart enough to realise that it is playing audio to a streaming device and buffers the video accordingly. Viola! Glorious hifi sound sans wires.
