Does this mean that some random deaf bastard (me) can plug a pair of headphones into the remote and listen that way while the rest of the family listens to the speakers? Any idea what the latency is like?
I think only one audio device will work at a time. I've only seen the remote at the WeTek office and wasn't able to test it out myself, but other Android devices that have a similar thing (Fire TV, Shield) only use one at a time. That is, headphones or TV audio.
Thanks Ned. Thought it might be something like that. You'd need a low-latency codec too. Anyway, until it's confirmed one way or the other there's always room for hope. It would be a killer feature for me.
On shield TV it's a case of you can use the headphones or the tv speakers. It just acts as standard bluetooth headphones, I don't know if that is a limitation of android. It would be nice to have the option to use both at the same time but I suspect they may just do the same as the shield tv.
