How to I get audio to go to a different room?

I need help understanding if I could stream audio from an Apple TV to somewhere else wirelessly.
In my proposed setup the Apple TV would be located next to my TV and connected using HDMI for video. However the audio needs to go somewhere else wirelessly because the AV amplifier that drives the speakers in that room is some distance away.
Is that what the new 'AirPlay audio support for video playback' enables, or am I not understanding this correctly?

So, would either of the following solve it for me:
#1. Buying Airplay speakers that have an audio-out that I could use to hook into my AV amplifier (essentially, using the Airplay speakers to wirelessly get the audio the distance from the Apple TV to the closet the amplifier is in and wiring it from there).
#2: Buying an Airport Express to do that instesd of Airplay speakers. Would that work?
Thanks for your help.

  • How do I get audio input to my TV when using a HDMI adaptor/converter?

    I bought a Belkin HDMI converter for my mid-2010 Macbook Pro so that I can watch internet movies on my television. When I plugged the HDMI into the adaptor I am able to see the video play on my television however the sound is still coming through my computer instead of my televsion. How do I get audio input from my computer onto my TV?

    You need to set the output in System Preferences > Sound > Output to HDMI.

    How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.
    I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
    I get video every time.  HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
    just no audio.  Any suggestions? 
    I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
    I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

    Claudiamil-
    I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did.  I'm using a small Vizio HDTV.  I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers.  In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
    I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down.  Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

    The audio inputs on Macs are line level inputs and not mic inputs.  You need a mic with a built in preamp (battery powered) or more conveniently a USB mic or bluetooth headset.

  • HT3131 how do i get audio from my HDTV when using a hdmi cable and mini displayport??

    How do I get audio to display from my HDTV when I'm using a hmdi cable and a mini-displayport adapter on a macbook late 2008??

    The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI.
    With the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody there is an adapter that uses the Mini DisplayPort and a USB port to combine video and audio to HDMI. It's only 2 channel stereo not 5.1 Dolby Surround.

  • How do I get audio from MacBook Pro to Samsung monitor?

    MacBook Pro - I've just bought an S27b550V Samsung monitor to connect to the MacBook Pro but even with hdmi adaptor and usb connection can only get video. I set sound control to recognise the usb output but still nothing but a faint muted sound from the monitor. How do I get audio to work?

    I don't think that a USB connection is going to do anything - as you've a Mac with a Mini DisplayPort that, I don't believe, will carry audio over HDMI, you'd need to use the 3.5-mm analog/optical combo jack optical jack to get video to your Samsung monitor.

  • How do I get audio for my apps without headphones?

    How do I get audio for my apps without headphones?  For some reason I can only hear the audio for many of my apps through my headphones. I've got the latest version of the OS so I'm not sure what else to do.  Volume works fine for all apps that use video like Netflix and YouTube. Help!

    Instead of turning it off, try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
    If the reset is not enough to knock a little sense into it, make sure that everything is backed up and restore the iPad to the factory settings.

    So Jens made a tiny mistake with the column name... shame you couldn't be bothered to research Pivoting so you could have corrected the mistake (possibly it was deliberate *{:-) ) and learnt something.
    with pv_attribute as (select 16123 attr_id, 322 port_id from dual union all
                          select 16123 attr_id, 322 port_id from dual union all

                          select 13163 attr_id, 323 port_id from dual)
    -- end of test data setup
    select sum(decode(port_id, 322, 1, 0)) cnt_322,

  • How do I get audio from mp4 video to stop playing on other slides? URGENT

    I have imported an mp4 video into my Captivate file, and it plays well. But when I get to slides after that one, the audio from the video file repeats on several other slides. How do I get this ugly behavior to stop?
    I don't want to unsync the audio and video because it could get out of sync on playback.
    Please advise ASAP. I am supposed to be handing this in tomorrow and have spent countless hours doing workarounds on this project already...
    Thank you very much for any help you can give me.
    Ellen

    Hello Ellen,
    What is your Captivate version and what option did you choose to insert the video?
    If it is Captivate 6, Can you use the Multi Slide Synchonize video. If it is a Previous version, can you select the Video and from properties choose to synchronize with project?
    Does the audio play on other slides when you jump from an incomplete video to other slides or when you view the complete video and then move to rest of the slides.
    Thanks,
    Anjaneai

  • How do I get my iCloud pics from a different phone

    How do I get my iCloud from my iPhone 3GS to my iPhone 4

    I don't know what you mean by "iCoud pics", since you can't archive pics on icloud.  The only thing you can do is have camera roll be part of a backup to icloud.  If that's what you mean, then the only way to get them back is to perform a restore to the device, which means you'll lose anything new since the last backup.  On the other hand if you just want to get pictures from one device to another...
    Sync them to your computer and then sync to the other device.
    Or.. email them to yourself.
    Or copy them to a service like Dropbox and download them to the other device.
