eliagp,
agreed, we do similar
watching shows on the computer screen from across the room late at night needs high volume which isn't good cos the kids are in bed.
We have the tablet with us anyway (its my remote control for media player on the pc), and I've often wondered about listening with a smaller speaker nearby.
(i'm too tired at nights to wire one up!)

I have an FM transmitter device that plugs into a normal headphone jack (normally used for playing MP3's on car stereos). You could just use that and a little radio to tune in and listen to the TV, or if you have an N800, use the FM radio application to tune in just like a radio.

That's a great idea!
I was thinking more of a solution without the need of buying anything else, but if I can't figure anything better I'll go with that (love the n800). It sounds like a great idea. See "lazy me" over there? She is using bluemaemo to control the PC. And I managed to get a second desktop So I can use my pc, and get video in my tv.
Being lazy takes a lot of work ^^
PS (also if I'm using bluemaemo, it would probably be way too hard to get audio too trough BT)
Anathomical accuracy is hard in MSPaint

I have a couple of little FM dongles, though, and they won't cover the whole apartment; one even starts getting noticeably noisier as little as 6 feet away.

Elia, I really don't think the bluetooth bandwidth would be an issue, but as I don't know of any good way to route the audio through BT anyway, it doesn't matter. I'd definitely think of FM radio as the best way.

Yeah. sucks for those with N810 though. I've never thought much of the Fm Radio till today. As for range, I only need like 1 meter from my feet, so about 2.6 meters range (8'6") I may have to move the bed closer, but its hardly the Idea. Are there any transmissors that have this (or better) range?
Thx

You could select the stereo mix on your soundcard as an input using your mixer settings, and then stream the audio using VLC or the like over wireless.
I've done something similar to what you want to do, but with the video switched. I wanted to watch something on TV with the audio on my N800 (my wife was doing homework), so I connected the TV Audio Out to Line In on my computer and streamed the audio.

Right now the audio is on my TV, but it comes from my pc, so that ought to work. How do you stream audio like that using VLC?
What do you use in the tablet to listen to the stream?
thx

Here is me with my dream config ^^
I already have the video working, but me being a bit nocturnal, and my parents early birds I would like someway to send the audio wirelessly to the tablet so I don't make any noise.
I have tversity working but not sure if I this is at all possible.
Any ideas?
PS I know I could do it with a BT headset, but hey, I have a tablet already ^^
