How to connect the audio to a separate speaker? - Person with portable speaker in nature

I'm trying to figure out how to get the audio from Live TV to a separate speaker. I've got the HDMI-out from the Xbox going to a projector instead of a TV and the projector's built-in audio sucks. I've got a decent bluetooth speaker with a 3.5 mm audio-in jack that I'd like to use. The Xbox has an "IR".

So I'm wondering, can I get both audio/video in through the HDMI and send the video out to the projector and the audio out to the speaker's audio-in jack?

Edit: sounds like some pics may help.

Xbox: Xbox One S 500GB enter image description here

Speaker: Sony SRSX5 Portable NFC Bluetooth Wireless Speaker

Projector: Viewsonic PJD5255

  • does not have bluetooth
  • the projector is mounted on the ceiling so it would be nicer to run an audio cable from the Xbox rather than from the projector's RCA outputs

Best Answer

Some newer projectors will have bluetooth connection as an available audio/out, try its settings.

Or if the Xbox straight up has a 3.5mm connection in the back.

Or if the Xbox has different audio out options.

How do I connect separate speakers?

Android users need to go to Bluetooth Settings and pair either Bluetooth headphones or speakers one by one. Once connected, tap the three-dot icon on the right and click on Advanced Settings. Toggle on the 'dual audio' option if not already turned on. This should enable users to connect to two devices at once.

How do I separate audio from different speakers?

Multiple Bluetooth speakers and headphones can be connected to one phone for a louder sound. Most Android phones and iPhones today allow dual audio and audio sharing capabilities respectively.
