Hello,

Can you explain how to connect a headphone to the new CANAL PLUS decoder for a TV without a SCART socket?

    Hello,

    If your TV has a headphone jack, the simplest solution is to connect your headphones to it.

    This decoder has a digital audio output SPDIF Optical.
    So you need:
    Either a wireless headset with optical input

    Or use a DAC
    Buy a DAC (= Digital to Analog Converter, in French Convertisseur de numérique à analogique)
    -To connect a wired headset:
    https://www.amazon.fr/Convertisseur-Analogique-Adaptateur-dAlimentation-dAluminium/dp/B06XHRYW2C/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1526570340&sr=8-4&keywords=audio+dac&dpID=41XrYH43YXL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
    Connect the supplied optical cable between the "Digital Optical" output of the decoder and the DAC, plug the headphones into the headphone output of the DAC and adjust the headphone volume using the small potentiometer on the DAC.

    -For a wireless headset:
    Buy a DAC (= Digital to Analog Converter, in French Convertisseur de numérique à analogique)
    https://www.amazon.fr/analogique-convertisseur-adaptateur-amplificateurs-dalimentation/dp/B00KNNSKV0/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1508597697&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=audio+dac&psc=1
    Connect the supplied optical cable between the "Digital Optical" output of the decoder and the DAC, plug the headphones into the headphone output of the DAC. For power, use a free USB port, or buy a 220-> USB adapter:
