Audio and video are separate. The signals (audio and video) come out perfect from this device and I love it! I purchased it, because I have an older Harmon Kardon Receiver with no HDMI capabilities. I wanted to have the 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound...from my new Blu-ray player. My new Blu-ray player only had the HDMI connection, so I needed the converter to run the 1080p video to my TV and I used the optical out (on the converter) to get the 5.1 signal to my old receiver. The converter has HDMI out and Optical out. This device is meant to send audio to a device (such as my older receiver) that do not have HDMI input. The Optical out (via fiber optic cable) carries the sound. The HDMI out goes to the TV...for video and the optical goes to the receiver, or audio device. HDMI carries audio and video in one cable, so I am not sure about what you are trying to do. Bottom line...this converter will take your HDMI signal and split the audio and video. The video will go out through the HDMI and into your video display and the audio will come out of the optical connection. If your audio device does NOT have an optical connection, this device will not work for you. You mention 2 channels. Are you trying to send sound to 2 speakers (stereo mode) from your slingbox? If so, I would recommend buying a receiver with HDMI inputs. I am not 100% sure about what you are trying to do, but I am sure I can help you figure out how to fix your problem. I have been dealing with A/V equipment since the late 80's. If you tell me all the audio and video equipment you have, I can probably tell you exactly what you need. It looks like you may be looking at the wrong device, for what you are wanting to do.

Not for usb. Bluetooth support for external controllers are only available on a jailbroken device. Haven`t seen anything for USB.

Hi Roy Keller, This receiver only receives bluetooth signal from a certain device and output audio to the speakers. It cannot output bluetooth signal to a bluetooth headphones. Thanks. &gt;Joffrey

Both the Big Blue and the Nolan need to connect to a device such as a smartphone or BT enables PC. They can only initiate the BT handshake. Thus, they can't complete the connection. If they are both connected to a smartphone, and if an app is running that will pass the mike to the speakers, then it should work. But it will not connect directly.

Both versions of the Nolan MIC require blue-tooth to connect to the host unit. The JVC Everio does not appear to have any bluetooth capabilities, so it won't be able to pair with it.

I was unable to get the sony headset to work as a Bluetooth player with my bluedio headphones but it works excellent to send music from another Bluetooth device e.g. like a phone to my sony noise canceling headphones which I attach it to. It also works great as a wired player to non-Bluetooth headphones by playing music on the micro sd card. I wish it could work as a bt player to bt headphones but I think it is a receiver and not a transmitter for sounds and that is why it cannot broadcast TO bt headphones on its own but can act as a receiver of other devices transmitting over bt. Hope this helps. It is an awesome device.

The USB is for power only. Not for sound transmission. Optical is your only means of getting sound from the source, to your headphones.

Have you tried going to the Iogear website and downloading the latest Win 7 drivers for your bluetooth receiver? After a bit of research, someone got their Iogear BT receiver to work with their headphones in Win 7 by manually pairing the headphones, then right-clicking on the speaker/headphone icon in the system tray. Then they chose the headphones as the playback default. Not sure if either will work, but maybe worth a try?

Please be aware that this is a receiver, not transmitter. Worked great to send audio from my phone to this device connected to a speaker, but useless for transmitting from a non-Bluetooth player attached to this device, sending to a Bluetooth headset. I returned mine.

Thanks for the replies. If I'm not able to get more info on internally adding a Bluetooth card, I might go the USB route. I already placed mine on order btw. My only concern with this solution is that it takes up a whole USB slot.

It actually has a bt receiver you can pull out of the back and plug into your usb. Be careful, though, there's the usb port and a little housing that keeps it clicked in, I broke the housing just pulling it out.

Here's what I know, I have multiple sources connected via HDMI to J-Tech and using the optical cable connecting to my Audio Receiver. This gives me surround sound from all my HDMI sources, exactly what I was looking for, hope this helps.

Hi Aimee -- Brett is correct that with Bluetooth, it's one receiver to one transmitter. Perhaps down the road the technology will change, but for now you could use a splitter along with the included 3.5mm audio cable we include. You'd then have the advantage of being untangled in most cases but also have the option for a wired set up. Thank you.

Hi, you need an USB port for the Tx on (PC transmitter). Mine doesn"t work yet I am going to get another DIAMOND Multimedia Vstream from Amazon.COM. I hope to have a solution this year/month. Rafael

The receiver itself does not have a usb port. I connected mine thru the headphone port with a rca jack on the other end. You can get this at Radio Shack.I ean they might have a usb with the rca jack on the other end , I don't know.
