Hello,

I have a last-generation Orange Ultra HD decoder.
I bought a TV headset with a jack output, but unfortunately, the TV doesn't have a jack input, just red and white. So I bought a jack to RCA adapter, but nothing happens.
I would like to plug the headset directly into the decoder, which only has an SPDIF output.
My question is the following: what should I buy to be able to connect my jack cable to this SPDIF input?

Thank you in advance, have a nice day.

    Hello,
    The jack socket on a headset is an input, not an output...
    On televisions, RCA sockets (except in rare cases) are inputs...

    The SPDIF socket on the Orange decoder is a digital coaxial socket
    The headset is presumably analog.
    Therefore, you will need a digital coaxial IN to analog 3.5mm jack or RCA OUT converter.
    We still need to know if this headset has a volume control or not?
    Please provide us with the references (brand and model) of the headset and also of the television

      Hello, thank you for your response. I may have gotten mixed up regarding the inputs/outputs????

      The TV is a LG 32LS3400 and the headset is a Sony MDR RF811RK

      Have a good day

        Ok... the headset has a volume control...
        As for the television, there is no audio output... ! ?
        So you need a converter like this one for example:
        https://www.amazon.fr/Aluminium-Techole-Analogique-Convertisseur-Num%C3%A9rique/dp/B07MB8VCWQ
        the coaxial cable is included with the converter.

        A conversation in the Orange decoder menu is certainly needed to activate the S/PDIF coaxial output.
