Hello, I've been wondering since I got my Chromecast if it's possible to cast a video (like on YouTube for example) but have the sound from the video come out of my phone's headset so I don't disturb my roommates in the other room? Thanks for your answers!

cast image and sound separately? : CCM

Hello,

Yes, it's possible!
I do it every night when I don't want to disturb my partner.

You need an app that is easy to use, and it will allow you to cast just the image. When you start your video, there will be some small adjustments to make on your part so that the sound matches the image.

The app: Web Video Caster

Have a good day

Hello,

What prevents you from plugging a headset into the television?

Some recent televisions do not have a headphone jack, but there are converters for line or optical audio output to headphone.

There are also wireless headsets (Philips, Sennheiser) that can be plugged into a headphone jack, but I find them expensive compared to their usefulness.

Best regards

Raphael

I'm following up on your response as I have a similar problem; my projector doesn't have a headphone jack... Only inputs! And the sound is really not great from the projector's mini speaker!
If I cast from a computer, will I have more functionalities?

Off-topic response!

Hello,

If your comment, as well as Khalid's, which is also devoid of any courtesy, concerns 10 months after sven0204's question, I would like to clarify, not for your attention, which I believe will not be of any interest, but for the readers with the same problem, that sven0204 clarifies his question in post n°2 I mean having the image on the TV and having the sound on my phone so I can plug in headphones

My answer, marked as the best answer, apparently met the expectations and your untimely interventions address a usage that has nothing to do with the question initially asked.

It would be beneficial for everyone if you both adhered to the rules of friendliness that prevail on this site and for both of you to read the thread of questions and answers to avoid, as new users, making misunderstandings and issuing imperative opinions that do not correspond to the problem posed.

This will prevent the trap you are talking about from opening up beneath your own feet.

Your very clear argumentation will surely be useful to the applicant.

Hello everyone. I'm facing the same issue. I have a Chromecast connected to my TV and a Nest Mini speaker. I managed to cast a video to my TV with the sound coming from my Nest Mini only once by some obscure means that I can no longer remember. Unfortunately, I can't seem to do it again. If someone knows a way, I would appreciate it.
Thank you very much.

Khalid

You just need to open the video you want to cast twice.
The first YouTube window casts via ChromeCast and you mute the TV sound

The second video, the sound will be on the PC which you can redirect wherever you want.

Good evening
If I understood correctly,
lower the volume on the TV (or with the mute button on the remote control)

Sven0204

No, I mean having the image on the TV and the sound on my phone so I can connect headphones.

Elraffa > Sven0204

Good evening, did you manage to do it? Because sometimes watching Netflix or Disney+ late at night so I don’t disturb the whole house, I’d like to do the same. Thank you for your reply.

Hello
I have the same problem as you.
I can't send the sound from my Chromecast to my Bluetooth speaker....
Did you find a solution?
Thank you
Louis

Biloutt

No, unfortunately I still haven't managed to do it again. It's possible, though; by fiddling around, I was able to have the video sent from my phone to the Chromecast and I had started the sound of that same video on the Nest Mini. If anyone really knows how to do it…

Khalid

Open the same video twice in two different windows.

The first one to cast on the TV but mute the TV sound.

The second one, the sound will be on the PC, so redirect it via Bluetooth.

The only downside: you need to synchronize the two videos.

Cast image and sound separately?
