Speaker System Controls

Speaker System Controls

On Friday I had set up the system for a Youtube presentation. When it was finished, embarrassingly  I couldn’t get back to direct CDs.

So I needed to formalise how to change music mode easily.

Four experimental sessions (and a trip to the suppliers to reset my hearing aids) later:

MM1(music Mode)  – laptop,

For Youtube and Windows Media Player

Method – hard -wired via switch, either laptop and DVD 

From “Everything” turned off:

  • Switch on computer, screen, rt hand audio switch, and speaker.
  • Als switch Phonac Hearing Aid to Music channel

MM2 – DVD Player

DVD audio and video and CD audio

Methods – a. Hard -wired via switch, either laptop or DVD player

AND b. (the default method) link to hearing aids, normally

 automatic,  (speakers normally on stand-by)

  • Switch off computer, 
  • Switch on screen, left hand audio switch, and speaker.
  • Als switch Phonac Hearing Aid to Music channel

MM3 – PIXXL smartphone using cast to screen

Switch everything off

(Default method) Cast to screen 

With no output to speakers

OR MM4, BUT my smartphone is set up to receive Bluetooth rather than send it out.

MM4 Bluetooth direct paired – No, I’m not happy

AND CERTAINLY not both  simultaneously  

Switch Hearing Aid to “Music” Channel

At least I now understand my problems on Friday!
