Top Questions

  • How to get My Avantree TV Headphones / Transmitters work well with my Samsung Smart TV?

    If you're using one of the latest Samsung Smart TVs, you could encounter an issue when using Bluetooth Transmitters or Headphones. The issue is due to the fact that Samsung Smart TVs tend to pair with any Bluetooth devices it can find unless you manually deny the connection. 

    This could lead to odd behaviors on your Samsung TV such as no picture, Blue / Black Screen with an error message, TV headphones and base not reconnecting, no sound on TV headphones, transmitter cannot pair to headphones, etc. 

    Bear in mind when using Samsung Smart TVs: 

    1. If your headphones / transmitters suddenly stopped working with your TV, it may be because your Smart TV performed an automatic update and reset all of its settings to its original form. Smart TVs also do automatic updates because they are connected to your Wi-Fi, just like a computer. Even though you didn't do anything, the TV changed itself. In these cases, follow the steps from the beginning to troubleshoot the issue.
    2. The TV remote control does NOT turn TV off. It only puts the TV into standby mode. The TV will still perform its "Smart" functions in standby mode. For example, the Samsung TV will still aggresively connect to all devices it finds. The best way to turn the TV OFF is to physically switch it OFF or to pull the plug.

    Here is the FIX for the above issue with Avantree TV headphones and transmitters.

    1. REMOVE / DENY the Avantree Device from Samsung TV's "External Device List."
    2. Keep the TV OFF (Not in Standby) if you have any issues reconnecting the headphones and the base. 

    DENY the Device:

    When the Samsung Smart TV detects your Avantree Device, a popup will appear on the screen, asking you to Allow or Deny the device to connect to the TV. You MUST DENY the device from connecting, otherwise it will not be able to connect with the other device in its set.

    REMOVE the Device:

    If you did allow the device to connect to your TV, or if your device connected to your TV automatically, you will need to remove the device from within your TV's settings.

    Settings >> General >> External Device Manager >> Device Connection Manager >> Device list - >> Edit >> Select all Avantree Device >> Delete

    After removing / denying the Avantree device from the Samsung TV's external device list, your Avantree devices should work properly now. If not, you might need to re-pair & lock the headphones with the base again. Here is how to do it:

    1. Turn OFF your Samsung Smart TV. Either flip the physical switch on the TV, or pull the plug from power. If you cannot physically turn OFF your TV, an alternate method to try is to press and hold the power button on your TV remote for 6 seconds until the TV turns off.

    2. Turn on your Headphones and Transmitter. It is recommended to have your transmitter plugged into a wall outlet, not your TV, as the TV should be off at this point.

    3. Get the Headphones and Transmitter into pairing mode (rapidly flashing RED & BLUE). For more information, please refer to your devices' user manual or support site. 

    4. If your Headphones and Transmitter have a LOCK function, please LOCK the headphones and the transmitter together. For more information, please refer to your devices' user manual or support site.

    Now, the headphones and transmitter will be locked together, so that the next time you use them they should automatically re-connect with each other and show solid BLUE on the headphone. NO need to re-pair them each time.

    If this does not fix it, pls contact support@avantree.com.

  • Can't Pair with my Bluetooth Headphones, Speaker

    If you are unable to connect a Bluetooth headphone / speaker to your Avantree transmitters, try the following:

    1.     Turn your smart TV, as well as other close by wi-fi device off to avoid interference. 

    2.     Make sure the previous paired devices, e.g. Mobile Phone, PC, are Bluetooth-off.

    3.     Make sure you put the Bluetooth headphones / speakers into PAIRING MODE (most people failed here!)

    4.     Factory Reset (Clear pairing history!! Not only turn on / off) BOTH devices and try again. 

    5.     If you tried all above but still cannot pair, there might be an unknown aggressive Bluetooth device in your environment. You may try the pairing process in a different location. If both devices are portable, take them into your car, drive a bit away from home, and use car cigarette lighter as the power source and pair them up.

    Normally, if the transmitter / adapter leaves the pairing mode first, it indicates you have something else in the environment disturbing the pairing. Please clear pairing history of the transmitter or try from a different location)

    If the Bluetooth headphone / speaker leaves the pairing mode first, it indicates previous paired device is not turned off. Please check the manual and clear the pairing history of the device. 

    If both devices stay in pairing mode for a long time but not connected, it is most likely caused by wi-fi interference.

     

    If it is still not working, please submit the Cannot Pair Verification Form, and we will get back to you within 1 working day.

  • Audio Delay / Lag - Visual Not Synced with Audio, Echo with TV Speaker

    Audio latency is, essentially, the time it takes for audio data to move from your audio source to your headphones. Wired headphones produce an imperceptible amount of lag—about 5-10ms worth. Within this 5-10ms window, your phone or computer processes the digital audio data, converts said data to an analog audio signal, and then streams the signal through your headphones or speakers.

    Bluetooth devices spend a lot more time to do this “processing”. The source device compresses the data and wirelessly transmits it. Then the headphones or speakers receive the data and decompresses it.

    The wireless communication program is called a “Codec”. It acts like a specific language that the sender and the receiver agree to communicate with. Different codecs lead to different audio delay times.

    Bluetooth Audio Codec

    Audio delay

    aptX™ HD 

    ≥ 250ms

    aptX™ Low Latency

    ~ 40ms

    aptX™

    ~ 70ms

    FastStream

    ~ 40ms

    SBC (Sub Band Codec)

    ~ 220ms

     

    To benefit from the lowest amount of audio delay, BOTH the sender and the receiver must support either the aptX Low Latency or the Fast Stream Codec. If only one side supports aptX Low Latency but the other side does not, the streaming will use the next available codec supported by both devices, such as SBC or aptX. You will find that your Bluetooth audio and TV speaker audio are not in sync.

     

    How do you confirm whether your Bluetooth headphones support the aptX Low Latency or FastStream codec? Simply check its specifications in its product listing or manual. Apple Headphones and nearly all true wireless earbuds do not support aptX Low Latency. Some headphones claim that they do, unless they are a reputable brand, you still need to double check from  Certified aptX Low Latency device list from www.aptx.com.

     

    There is another factor that you need to keep in mind regarding audio delay, which is Codec priority. Many Bluetooth devices have a Codec "priority" list, meaning that it prioritizes using some Codecs over others when connecting to other devices. For example, the DG80 Dongle's Codec priority goes like this: 1.FastStream, 2.aptX low latency, 3.aptX, 4.SBC. When connecting with other devices, the dongle will go through these codecs one by one until it finds one that is supported by the device it's connecting to.

     

    Where this gets tricky is if you are connecting multiple devices to each other. Bluetooth devices will use the lowest common denominator supported by all devices, not necessarily the fastest codec. This can result to a slower codec being used, even though your headphones support a faster codec. Read more here.

     

    If you suspect that this is an issue, a fix is to factory reset / clear the pairing history of the devices experiencing audio delay. This may fix the issue.

     

    What if my headphone is not low latency supported? You have the following options:

    1. Change to a Low Latency supported headphone;

    2. Get a headphone / transmitter Set. We have plenty of options HERE

    3. Live with the slight lip sync delay.

  • Can I have audio through my TV's Speakers AND Wireless Headphones at the Same Time?

    Hearing audio through the TV speaker AND the headphones at the same time

    If you'd like to get sound on both your TV speakers AND headphones at the same time, it DEPENDS on whether the TV is able to support getting sound out to two sources simultaneously. It is NOT related to the transmitter. The transmitter receieves the sound from your TV's output and streams it over to your Bluetooth headphones or speakers.

    However, if you connect the transmitter to your TV via OPTICAL port and you can see the following options under the SOUND OUTPUT settings on your TV...

    You can actually get sound simultaneously! Follow these steps:

    1. Go to SOUND OUTPUT and change this to OPTICAL / EXTERNAL SPEAKER
    2. Once there's sound going out into the headphones, go back to SOUND OUTPUT and change this back to TV SPEAKER

    If your TV doesn't support simultaneous output to both the TV speakers and headphones, here are some alternative methods you can consider:

    For Audio Transmitter Users:

    Solution 1: Connect the Transmitter to a TV box / AV Receiver instead

    If you have a TV box (DirecTV, Xfinity, Bluray Player, etc.), you should be able to find audio output ports on the back of them. Try to connect the Avantree transmitter directly here instead of the TV. This method essentially allows you to "go around" the TV's built-in speakers.

    Con: will not work on streaming apps if you have a Smart TV or streaming device

    For all users:

    Solution 2: For users with TV Sondbar / AV Receiver

    2.1 Use Transmitters with Passthrough Function

    If you have a Soundbar or Stereo Receiver, check your transmitter to see if it supports passthrough. If not, you can return your current product and consider purchasing one of these: Orbit, Oasis Plus, Opera, Medley 6018, HT5009, HT5006, Duet, or Quartet.

    Our industry leading "Passthrough" function allows you to put the transmitter/base between a TV and an external speaker and have audio come out from both devices AT THE SAME TIME.

    2.2 Use Audio splitter/extractor

    • For AUX Output - Use an audio splitter (e.g. Avantree TR302) to share the TV's audio between an EXTERNAL SPEAKER and the Transmitter. The splitter in this example is a 3.5mm audio splitter

    • For Optical AUDIO OUT - Use an optical splitter (e.g. J-Tech splitter) to share the TV's audio between an EXTERNAL SPEAKER and the Transmitter. The splitter in this example is an optical audio splitter.

    • For HDMI ARC OUT - Use an HDMI Audio Extractor (e.g. HAX05) to share the TV's audio between an EXTERNAL SPEAKER and the Transmitter. The splitter in this example is an ARC supported HDMI audio extractor.
