Questioncannot get this bluetooth transmitter to work on my new tv. it is paired with my Sony wireless headphones. no sound comes out.
Asked 6 years ago by bec.
- Answer You need to run a simple test before you can solve the problem. Have you plugged in a standard, wired headphone into the new TV's headphone jack to see if it is "live?" The transmitter can only broadcast what it "sees" at its input. You may be broadcasting silence if the headphone jack is disabled in your TV's SETTINGS. I'd bet the test headphones (wired) are silent, too. Most TV's are delivered with the headphone jack disabled in the settings. My LG is that way. In order to get multi-channel output through HDMI or optical, you can't also have stereo to the headphone output. The TV manufacturer expects the end user is primarily interested in multi-channel output. If you go into your SOUND or AUDIO settings you will likely see a list of options where you can choose which outputs to enable and/or how many channels to output. Some choices may force you to choose between two desirable outcomes, and give up something.

Questionmy indicator light is constantly on red and blue and it won't turn off, what does this mean?
Asked 7 years ago by cree.
- Answer According to Aluratek customer service, which I just called about my own device with the same symptom, the solid blue and red light together means this device has to be reset, but that is not possible. They told me I have to return mine to replace it with a different model (ABC01F) which is resettable but costs 138% more than this one.

QuestionDoes this device support the HI-FI audio modes as well as the lo-fi communication modes?
Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Absolutely not. If it "technically does" through the bluetooth spec, it still sounds like junk. This transmitter is VERY noisy. Static and ticking. It is not what you want for hi-fi by any means.

QuestionWhy do I have to repair everytime time I turn on my headphones
Asked 4 years ago by Fred.
- Answer No. If it's working correctly it will re-connect to your headphones any time it sees them. Some say that the Transmitter will remember up to 4 devices (headphones) but will only connect to 2 simultaneously.

QuestionHi, I have JBL bluethoot headphones and two Samsung LED TVs, none have bluethoot, I have already bought several devices and they don't start with the TV, someone who has served this one? Thank you
Asked 5 years ago by Vicky.
- Answer I found that a couple of my high end smart TV's don't even have earphone output(s), 3.5mm.( kinda baffling) I have a 32" TV I use and I use this transmitter linking by bluetooth to Jabra elite 65 earbuds. The trick is the Jabra earbuds have an app which allows you to link to the transmitter where many others don't link. They're a bit pricey but it thoroughly solved my issue.

QuestionHow does the battery get charged
Asked 4 years ago by Jamest.
- Answer USB cable, much like charging spare batteries for phones. By the way several people have reported that they leave the USB cable plugged in all the time so the Transmitter is essentially wall powered.

QuestionDoes this support the microphone on the bluetooth device like a headset. Or is it only the audio sent to the bluetooth device and no support for the bluetooth microphone?
Asked 4 years ago by Demetri.
- Answer To use with a headset with a microphone, you would need to use a bluetooth transmitter/receiver, but you need one that will automatically switch from transmit to receive and back. Many units require you to manually toggle a switch from transmit to receive, so do your research.

QuestionHi cani use this with my projector to connect Bluetooth speaker. The projector doesn’t have aux
Asked 6 years ago by Jay.
- Answer The projector has to have a aux out 3.5mm headphone jack. To project sound to transmitter so transmitter can send sound to bluetooth speakers. Your dvd/cable/reciever should have a aux out or RCA jack you can use for sound coming out. If so, the transmitter comes with a rca to headphone jack wire. Good luck

QuestionWill Aluratek - Bluetooth Audio work if wired to dvd or portable dvd player being used with tv? I need blue tooth for tv for wireless headphones; what settings do I adjust on tv to enable blue tooth for wireless headphones?
Asked 4 years ago by Babbelon.
- Answer Let me start by assuming you have a DVD (portable or fixed) attached to your TV, and now you want the TV audio Transmitted to your Bluetooth headphones. If so, the instructions are included with the Transmitter. If the TV has 1/8" audio output, try that since it will probably mute the TV-speakers giving you the freedom to adjust the Volume with the TV remote. Pretty simple. If you have to use the Red/White RCA audio output then you may have sound coming from the TV and the BT headphones, but with the headphones on it may be ok for you... If you are trying to catch the audio Directly-from the DVD player (to reduce audio latency?) then you are going to have to experiment a bit. Today's DVD players send the audio over with the video on HDMI, so the TV is responsible to sync them up; hence, audio from the TV will usually be easiest. Btw, Some have suggested getting BT Headphones that have a "volume" adjustment built in. I use "'s because the adjustment may be limited to Attenuating (quieting) the volume only; powered amplifier in the headphone would be ideal but I haven't looked around to see if they exist yet.
