I just plugged an analog-to-bluetooth transmitter into the headphone jack on a laptop (with windows 7 and firefox) that is quite old and therefore does not have its own bluetooth feature To send a headset. The sound quality is good and stable, but I get, for example, When watching Youtube or Netflix an audio delay of between 0.2 and 0.3 seconds I would say, so mouth movements or noises of objects are out of sync.
Now, after a long googling, I have found that sometimes it can be based on an old Bluetooth standard, so if it is e.g. Only Bluetooth v2.0, which simply has too little bandwidth. Is it true? Is the noticeable delay simply due to this, and buying a more modern transmitter would solve the problem? In fact, my transmitter has only "Bluetooth technology: V2.1, A2DP".
For recorded videos, this is not a problem: I can do the video manually, e.g. Show delayed in the VLC player, so everything fits again. But is there such a workaround for directly streamed videos as from Youtube and Netflix that the image is artificially delayed by 200 to 300 ms? So, that's how it's handled directly at the browser or OS level?
You transfer the sound from the jack into a transmitter that encodes the signal again and sends it to your headphones via Bluetooth? Wow. Why not USB? They bring their own drivers and use special profiles, such as those for audio transmission. Should you find for under 10 at Amazon.
I can only tell you that I also have this delay with my internal Bluetooth (in my notebook) and a Teufel Boomster Box. I do not know the version of the Bluetooth now but I think you will always have a delay! It could be less but that's it.
But looking at the video, you're sitting right in front of it anyway. Take it for a wired.
So I had ordered a (USB) for exactly this reason, but since the pairing with my headset simply did not work.
Maybe you bought one where there were not the right drivers for your operating system? Or were not the right ones installed?!
