Video from iphone but audio via bluetooth?

[audi321]

Hi all, don't know if such a thing exists, but if I wanted to stream a video from my iphone but can ONLY output the audio via bluetooth does such a thing exist?

I have an apple tv, but I don't think theres a way to split the audio. Although I believe the latest gen of ATV can bluetooth the audio separately (can it?).

Chromecast again only has hdmi so no splitting there.

Is there anything I've missed? Thanks all

You can use a cheap Lightning to HDMI adapter to put the video through to a TV, and then attach a bluetooth device as the audio output. There is also the official Apple one which may be more compatible, but I thought I'd try the cheaper one first.

It's what we use for putting Facetime calls from family in Canada onto the TV, but we need the bluetooth conference speaker to pick up all the people talking around the room as the TV doesn't have a mic, and the iPhone one doesn't pick much up.

We use a portable USB/wireless Jabra speaker (only because it's the one provided to me by my office, so it's free to use).

I know there are limitations on streaming/mirroring certain app content, so YMMV.

Thanks. The problem I’ve got is that the hdmi is going into a screen which has no speaker or outputs. Hence the need for separate audio.

The screen doesn't need any outputs.

The audio is streaming directly from the iPhone to the speaker.

It's fine for video conferencing, but if it's to watch a movie/play games then a proper bluetooth speaker/system would be better for audio quality.
