Title: Streaming only audio track from video to mobile device?
Post by: logicaldisconnect on March 29, 2013, 04:37:09 am

Hi all. Can anyone tell me whether it is possible with MC18 to stream only the audio from a video to a mobile device (iOS specifically)? I know I can stream a video itself using WebGizmo but I want to have a video / live TV playing on my TV with the audio streaming to my iPhone. If this is not possible in MC18, does anyone know another way to do it (on Windows)?

I am probably missing something but I looked through all the options, the forum and the wiki and couldn't see anything specifically relevant. I'm thinking I may be able to do it with zones but I'm not sure how.

Thanks for any assistance.

Take a look at JRemote on the Third Party board here.  They were talking about it.  I don't know the status.

Thanks JimH. Doesn't look like they have anything yet as far as I can tell.

I tried Airfoil (which can send all system sound over the network to mobile devices) but the latency is bad, at least with MC. That's fine for video, movies etc because I can just add a delay, but not for live TV.

Not sure if anyone knows any other alternatives.
