You are the man!!! I have been fighting this for a couple years. Bluetooth disconnects every time tv is shut off, and my mother of 90 years has no clue to reconnect. This is so cool! It's criminal that ALL MANUFACTURERS have taken the 3.5 and audio RCA's off the TV's. Anyway, you have made my year!!!
My tv goes from HDMI ARC to an HDMI on my mini computer. the 3.5mm from comp to speaker (Stanmore II Marshall) and all works fine also. To play my laptop on speaker, i added additionally usb transmitter 5.3 Aptx HD to the speaker (supports Aptx HD). There are different ways to achieve connections without breaking the bank. But indeed, as u showed in the vid. Wired is pretty easy, secure and hassle-free to handle afterwards.
I bought an eARC HDMI extractor similar to this and successfully connected it, but I can't use the remote controller to adjust the volume... I can see that the TV tries to send digital data to increase or decrease the volume, but my sound system is a simple 2.1 Logitech speaker set, so it cannot receive any information through either from the jack or the RCA cables. It was a waste of money in my case. I guess an amplifier unit is needed that can actually handle the volume information coming from the TV. If an eARC HDMI sound extractor with a built in amplifier exists, I would be very interested in it, because I don't want to buy a soundbar or etc. But so far I haven't find anything like it.
Yeah you need a receiver that will take hdmi arc because your audio extractor is only doing audio. I don't know how aux cord volume works but worth hdmi I know a receiver could properly handle dialing volume from tv remote
@@marckman1411 So is there any tech like that? Coz I'm currently in a situation similar to that. I need to control the sound level from my tv remote to my 2.1 speakers which has only 3.5mm pin and a volume knob on my subwoofer. There isn't any digital display or remote separate for my speakers.

Haha surprisingly I found this video with the same issue! Also just got a brandnew alienware monitor and looking for a way to share audio from multiple inputs. I saw a comment that says with this you can control volume though.
Sir, on your samsung tv, go to setting, audio, sound output and chose your soundbar for bluetooth, after that i will automatically connect to your soundvar
Good video. Can you use your TV remote to change the volume while connected to the hdmi arc? I've heard that sometimes you can't do that when connected to the optical port. Thanks!
Yes you can. That's the reason I choose to extract HDMI arc audio signal. As for why sometimes we can't change the optical audio volume through tv, I'm still trying to find out the exact reason. Perhaps any audio expert could enlighten me on this topic.
@@Lexington365 I don't think that's a good explanation, because HDMI is just as much a digital signal and clearly we can send commands in it that adjust volume. I think a better reason is, optical audio is designed to be line-out to an external amplifier, whose job it is to control volume. Therefore, volume commands are not present in the signal.
. If u want to use tv speakers together u can. If yr sound bar has optical, connect it together with HDMI and u can output from tv speakers and sound bar at the same time . This is how also the Samsung symphony tv work

What kind of mini computer is it? Thanks!
Hi there, I was looking for these converters but they all say specifically that they don't support sound from HDTV to speakers out. Any suggestions?
Thank you! My son just encountered this issue today with his Samsung TV.

My tv doesn't have AUX but my Home theater only has aux. Can I use HDMI eARC to AUX convertor ?
Thank you so much man. Im facing the same problem.
You just saved me a lot of hassle. Thank you very much!
Thank you for your video. I fixit my problem with my tv , work perfect
Can you hear sound from Netflix, tv programmes, etc?
Can you adjust volume with the TV remote or do you need to adjust volume at the speakers?
Great video, thanks for making it
You adjust volume from the TV.

Thank you for this information dude....
Bro you can’t use 3.5mm output to passive speakers, only active speakers. Using non powered passive speakers I heard they will ruin the tv .
Hi bro,
My tv has hdmi e arc port and my speakers has aux port. How do i connect them?? Please guide me here.
Same problem I got. Please help us mate :p
Aux to rca cable?
Can the tv volume control works when using 3.5 mm jack.
Same question
I'm looking for the same thing but that dose the opposite my PC dose not have HDMI ARC and my sound bar needs HDMI ARC
You should try other option such as optical. Unless your soundbar only accepts hdmi
@@MyEverydayTech the sound from optical is sooo bad quality I hate the sound quality from it that’s why I’m looking to find a way to connect via HDMI
I bought a Alienware monitor that doesn’t have a 3.5 audio jack, would this work so I can plug my Logitech speakers into it?
Haha surprisingly I found this video with the same issue! Also just got a brandnew alienware monitor and looking for a way to share audio from multiple inputs. I saw a comment that says with this you can control volume though.
I wonder why you will need to plug in speaker to a monitor? Why not use PC's audio jack?
I don’t have a pc, I wanna play ps5 games…
@@MyEverydayTech I’m my case i have multiple devices too
Sir, on your samsung tv, go to setting, audio, sound output and chose your soundbar for bluetooth, after that i will automatically connect to your soundvar
Bluetooth audio is horrible because of the audio delay

@@MyEverydayTech optical is just digital version of rca or aux.
Anyone wondering what this stuff is.😮 It's actually a piece of the same type circuitry that is found inside yr tv.
thnks man... saved lots of time..
Is possible to use the hdmi arc output simultaneously with the tv own speakers?
. If u want to use tv speakers together u can. If yr sound bar has optical, connect it together with HDMI and u can output from tv speakers and sound bar at the same time . This is how also the Samsung symphony tv work
2023 Samsung TVs finally support standard USB DACs! Probably you can even just add an Apple USB-C to 3,5mm dongle with an usb-c to USB-A adapter.
thanks very usefull !
Why not just get a simple 3.5mm to HDMI ARC cable?
lol. Nice.
Mine works for CZcams on my LG TV but no sound when I watch Netflix, VIU and Disney+ 🥲
U have probably set yr tv sound format to auto or passthrough. U must set the tv sound format to pcm or stereo on both the tv and extractor.
