Feature Request - No Mute Using Bluetooth

Wile · Post time 2020-10-12 22:00:56

It would be great to be able to output audio through a connected bluetooth device without it muting the audio stream.
As I've noted elsewhere, I connect a bone-conducting headset to the television via bluetooth so that my wife (who has hearing problems) can supplement the sound without having to increase the volume. If I try to do the same with my GT-King, it mutes the audio output without (as far as I can see) the option to have both.
This could also enable anyone who wants to connect a supplemental bluetooth speaker.

Sorry, I don’t quite understand what you mean. Can you say that it’s easier to understand? Maybe I don’t know much about this aspect. I hope you can teach me.

Many devices - TV, AV receiver, radio etc. - mute the audio when a headset is plugged into the jack socket.
GT-King - mutes the audio when any device is connected through Bluetooth.

Normal operation - Video & audio via HDMI + audio via SPDIF and AV.
With any device connected through Bluetooth - Video via HDMI only, no audio via HDMI, SPDIF or AV, only via Bluetooth.
Request - Video & audio via HDMI + audio via SPDIF, AV and Bluetooth.

Hope that's clearer.

Can I understand it as an option that Bluetooth headsets and other sounds can be played at the same time, that is, when the Bluetooth headset is connected, there are also HDMI, AV and SPDIF sounds that can be used

I’m sorry I want to ask you a question, since the 911P0 update, Can dolby atmos and DTS be used normally?

I use VLC set to pass through via SPDIF TO A 5.1/7.1 AV receiver. If we can't be bothered with the receiver, I set VLC to disable pass through so that we can have the audio from the TV + AV through a low latency Bluetooth transmitter for the bone conducting headset. The only codes that VLC can't handle is EAC3.
