As mentioned above, my Philips headphones “6000 Series” work with the TV-Box/5, but not with the TV-Box Swisscom, although they are recognized.

N.B. There is no need for apps for these headphones.

I’m sorry for repeating myself. But in principle you can pair Bluetooth devices with the Box 21. Here, for example, in addition to the remote control, I also paired headphones and a keyboard:

Connected are:

- Swisscom remote control RC2000

- Keyboard Logitech K375s 

- Headphones ZX-1576 from Pearl **(No longer available)

**Maybe @RomanE has an idea why your devices can’t be paired with the Box 21.

For me it’s the TV-Box Swisscom that doesn’t work, I’d have to try the TV-Box 21.

Addendum: So I tried the Philips 6000 Series with the TV-Box 21 and it works, but the Philips 8000 Series doesn’t work with all TV boxes, only with the Samsung TV..

That would be great if you could try that. Because the questioner has a box 21.

With the Swisscom Box the testing is only running with Android TV. It may well be that there are still problems.

As mentioned above in the test with the TV-Box 21, the Philips 6000 Series headphones work, but neither do the Philips 8000 Series.

No, this setting does not exist.
It’s certainly not intended that way.
It’s like with Natel. Either … or. And yes, some models allow you to connect two headphones. But they are both Bluetooth. And it would work on Windows.
Maybe something like this will be implemented.

Of course, we can’t test all of the headphones, but we did look at a few, including the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The paddocks are all perfect.

It is therefore surprising if the 3 Pros behave differently here.

We have not tested Philips headphones.

@Atmega

For me it works by setting up listening with the TV speakers and headphones at the same time if I connect the headphones directly to the Samsung TV via Bluetooth and I can then set it there, but not with the TV-Box as already mentioned.

@RomanE

All headphones are recognized in the “Google” Bluetooth menu, but some headphones then say connection failed.

So the Bluetooth connection is there but for some reason the paring doesn’t work, and normally no apps are needed.
