Optical to audio converter5/6/2023 This Converter is small in size and quite easy to install. which have no RCA (L/R) outputs or 3.5mm Jack output. Connect to amplifier with a RCA Audio cable or headphone with a 3.5mm Stereo Jack cable simultaneously. Connect to TV with a to slink cable (also called Digital SPDIF or Optical Cable) or Coaxial cable. Most of all, his original problem with using his old wireless headphones has been solved.This digital to analog audio converter is designed for either house or professional audio switching. He says that, surprisingly, the TV video quality difference between that coming from the converter and that of the direct digital HD broadcast is barely noticeable, if at all. With this "lash up", he simply uses the "remotes" for his TV and/or converter to configure the TV's input and the converter channel selection. The DVD player was then connected to the TV's component video/analog stereo audio input. The composite video and analog stereo audio outputs of the converter were then connected to the corresponding inputs of the TV where the DVD player had previously been connected. He put a "splitter" in his antenna "feed", running one output of the "splitter" to his TV and the other to the digital to analog converter. Since I no longer needed any of the converters which I had purchased during that transition, I sent him one of my "leftovers". Given this, it seemed reasonable that, rather than purchase an special digital audio decoder, a digital to analog signal converter such as had been purchased and used by many of us during the transition from analog to digital TV broadcast, should also work. From earlier "testing", we had found that the analog stereo audio output from his DVD player, when connected to the TV's analog stereo input and then out via the TV's digital optical ouput to a "optical to analog stereo audio converter" and then out to the headphone base, would pass the audio through. In the end, it occurred to me that, rather than purchase a device specifically designed to decode only the audio content of the digital broadcast signal, a less expensive solution was available. Since my friend that had the problem as described in my original posting lives in Texas and I live in Tennessee, it took some time time in communicating and discussing what we had learned on the forum in order to come up with a "workable" solution. Thanks to all of the great information and advice from AVS forum members, a successful solution to this problem has been found. Any advice or fixes for this problem will be greatly appreciated. These same problem occurs when using the optical audio output from a second TV of a different manufacturer. The problem also exist when the analog output from the optical to analog converter is connected to a stereo amp rather than to the headset base. When using a DVD player as the TV composite audio/video input source rather than the OTA broadcast, the audio comes through to the headset OK and the TV display video is fine. The TV display video in this setup is OK. The converter that he purchased is a Sanoxy Digital Optical/Coax to Analog RCA Audio Converter Adapter but when he uses it with over the air broadcasts via theTV's tuner, he only gets "white noise" with crackling and popping out of his headset. After talking to me about it and finding out that the TV has only a digital optical audio output, I recommended that he purchase an optical to analog converter to be placed between the TV optical output and the analog input of the headphone base. In doing so, he discoverd that the new TV does not have the stereo analog audio output which is required as the input to the old headphones. He had in the recent past purchased a new Panasonic plasma HDTV and has just now tried to connect his old wireless headphones to the new TV. A friend who occasionally asks for my advice on problems he is having with either his computer or home entertainment system has again asked for my advice.
