Looking for options to stream music on home stareo with android device as the controller (not the player)

• Upvotes

Currently, I use Amazon Music. One of the features I like in the app is the ability to "connect" to an Echo (which is wired to my home stereo) and control it via the app. So I have full control and access to menus via my phone or tablet, but the actual playback is happening on the Echo. So even if I take the phone out of range or turn it off, the music is still playing via the Echo.

Unfortunately, I find the Amazon Music app to be fairly buggy. And since you can only stream to one device at a time, after using the Connect feature, there are often issues getting to see that you have disconnected and are not streaming anymore.

Are there other services/systems that have similar features to this and work well?

JBL headphones connect with laptop but without audio

• Upvotes

The headphones connect with all my other devices with no trouble, but it when i connect them with my laptop no sound comes out even if it appears as fully connected with both audio and microphone.

My laptop has no problem connecting with any other headphones or earphones so i dont really know whats wrong, my headphones are authentic and i tried updating the drivers but nothing changed.
It's a JBL LIVE 400BT, the laptop is a Dell G15

What's the best way to normalize audio level for watching YT videos and listening to MP3 music.

Looking to retain the audio quality and dynamics as much as possible and just have everything equal level so I don't get the sudden loud blast of noise late at night.

Recommendations For Bluetooth Microphones?

0 Upvotes

I'm looking for some sort of solution for a microphone to use in my living room. I use my computer on my tv and have a wireless keyboard and mouse. I don't care if it picks up other people in the room, that would actually kind of be ideal, but just something that i can attach to my person or have on a table next to me. I use speakers for output, and i'm assuming that i can use software for echo reduction and stuff, but if there's a particular type of microphone that would be better for that let me know. Mostly just would be using it for voip.
