A:AnswerI think you have to plug into an outlet but not 100% sure.............. I would suggest that if you do not have enough outlets that you buy a power surge strip for the extra outlets needed. With my set up I have audio extractor HDMI going to my TV and optical cable from audio extractor straight to my BOSE system which does not have an HDMI input. This set up allows me to use my BOSE system which is an older system.
If you plug into the input your ROKU stick, you can send the video to your projector via HDMI and split out the sound from audio extractor to your speakers via "Optical cable"................ It gives you "Digital Sound" which is very crisp.
Good luck!
A:AnswerYes as long as you connect the optical out or 3.5mm jack out to an audio amp or headset or desktop speakers, etc... It will pass video thru Projector and audio will be waiting on the audio outs of the Extractor for you to plug into something.
A:AnswerThis product only extracts sound, not sure what your using to Bluetooth your signal to your speakers, but the MME Bluetooth transmitter/receiver has a volume boost built in.
A:AnswerYes you can get sound out of it
I have mine connected to my projector that has internal speaker. But I used the insignia hdmi to get got for my surround sound system.
Has hdmi in and out and fiber optic output for sound

A:AnswerHi Trish.
This device certainly will work wonders if you are trying to connect an HDMI device to an older surround system. Meanwhile I'm not sure about your specific setup, most likely it will work with it as it is very universal.
