on the remote control or select an item on the main screen of Android TV.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Select Remotes and Devices.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Open the AirPods case, hold down the button on the back and wait for the light to flash white.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><span><span>Click &#8220;Add Device&#8221;

not like on an iPhone.\u00a0However, here are some points that need to be configured manually.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>You can turn off Dolby Atmos if your TV has this option.\u00a0In headphones, especially in AirPods 2, it is of no use.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Turn &#8220;Dialogue Clarity&#8221; to medium.\u00a0This is a very cool feature that helps you hear dialogue better in podcasts and movies.\u00a0Works very cool if there is noise around you.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span><span>Sound balance: When connecting AirPods, there is a feeling that the sound in one earbud is a little louder.\u00a0<\/span><span>Checked in several applications &#8211; the same.\u00a0<\/span><span>Perhaps a one-time case, but if you encounter this, just move the slider 3 to the right.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span><span>In advanced sound options, turn on &#8220;Automatic volume control&#8221;: so the sound effects will not interrupt the dialogue when watching a movie.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Be sure to change the equalizer in the \u201cPreset sound\u201d item: dynamic is the best, but in general there is really a difference in sound if you select a different preset.\u00a0Why can&#8217;t Apple do this?<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>After all the manipulations, you need to click &#8220;Restart&#8221; for them to take effect.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>The only drawback is that if\u00a0<\/span><strong><span>AirPods are connected to Android TV<\/span><\/strong><span>\u00a0, then calling Google Assistant on command will not work for you, even if the switch on the TV case is in the \u201cON\u201d position.\u00a0On the other hand, as before, it can be called from the main screen or the button on the remote control.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span>How to listen to music on TV with headphones<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span>A huge\u00a0<\/span><strong><span>plus of AirPods<\/span><\/strong><span>\u00a0is the range of up to 50 meters to the sound source due to Bluetooth 5.0, so you can listen to podcasts from your TV.\u00a0In order not to waste a lot of energy, you need to enable one option.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>Press the &#8220;Settings&#8221; button on the remote control.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Select Sound.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Then click &#8220;Audio Only&#8221;.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>A sign will appear on the screen notifying that the screen will turn off, and you can turn it back on with any key.\u00a0In fact, the screen will continue to work: take a closer look, there is an image.\u00a0Just no backlight!\u00a0In general, this is very convenient when the TV serves as a sound source and you want to listen to something, but do not leave the screen on.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content\">\n<p><strong><span>Disconnecting your AirPods from your TV<\/span><\/strong><span>\u00a0is pretty easy: you can just go to Settings, select your headphones, and click Disconnect.\u00a0Or turn off the TV and the connection will end automatically.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_479570\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px;
