Hi, I'm having some difficulties while casting from my Macbook Pro. I have a Sony KDL-43W800C TV that I'm trying to cast to from my MacBook Pro running Sierra 10.12.2.
I have been gifted some headphones for Christmas so I don't have to have the TV on so loud late at night (shift worker). I'd like to not wake up or keep up the housemates while watching the TV. Is there any way to connect the headphones to either my MacBook or Android phone, the cable isn't long enough to connect to the TV without sitting ridiculously close to the screen. If there's a software solution before a hardware solution gets purchased it would be preferable.
I'm generally casting using an extension called Videostream through Chrome on the Macbook as it's one of the easiest to use things I can find to play avi/mkv files stored locally on the MacBook.
If anyone has any ideas I would gratefully take them. Thanks
When you're casting, all audio and video go to the TV. It's not multiple streams, and your MacBook / smartphone aren't involved at all.
I think a cheap option would be to buy a 10' audio cord and listen that way.
