Wireless TV setup. I have some (somewhere) and they also used the same frequencies. Quite possibly the bowling club or anything nearby. Bars/Pubs/bowling clubs I could definitely see using aforementioned technology to avoid running long cables.
There are many different brands but here is an example
Wow, for such a big space, yeah the layout is really awkward.
Do you plan to use the fireplace? You could just put a sofa right in front of it and act like it doesn't exist.
I'll think some more and get back to you :)
EDIT 1: Here's something for the cable signal, given you can hang your TV over your fireplace and still plug it in etc.
EDIT 2: Personally, if I were a guest, I think the office setup in the dining room would be more welcoming. Plus then you have the music equipment in the main living space to play with guests over. You could even nestle it in one corner and still have room for a small dining table for 2-4 people towards the kitchen.
Yes you can but the drawback is you will get a mirror of the video output of the one device. Growing up we had two TVs and one VCR. We got a RCA wireless transmitter and hooked it up to the VCR and second TV. My dad could watch the news on one TV and I could watch a movie on the VCR in the other room.
I did a search and found there are newer versions of what I used like this for composite - Nyrius Transmitter $50
and HDMI which is over double that - SainSonic Transmitter $118
Keep in mind the other drawback, you have to get the video signal out of the device you are using now to the transmitter. My VCR setup was easy. The VCR was hooked up to the TV by coaxial cable, I ran composite cables to the transmitter. You would either need to split the the signal from your current Kodi box to the transmitter and TV it's on now. Or you could plug your Kodi box into the transmitter and purchase a second receiver. And this isn't even factoring in if there DRM concerns, or 4K (if that matters to you.)
Just to give you an idea of what this kind of setup looks like in action - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48F5Ur0mlII
Just get a second box, much cheaper and easier to setup.
I doubt it, that is a pretty niche case. Why can't you run a cable along the floor?
EDIT: Actually, I think I may have found something that might work?
Local wireless video streaming in 2014 wasn't impossible, though more cumbersome than today. These are probably pretty close to what was used; RCA transmitters/recievers, running on 12v DC. The goggles in the video look most likely to be the cheaper-end RCA kind, but there were more expensive options available then and now (though no, most of them aren't awesome).
Weird... I would have thought that would clearly be the job of the transmitter. There are very few reasons for a consumer device to receive audio, and the main reason to use a transmitter is because a tablet/phone/computer isn't involved.
There are transmitter/receiver pairs on the market which I certainly hope would work together.Edit: nope, looks like all those pairs I've seen on Amazon are deceptive photography. They're not actually selling two devices, just one that serves two functions. You can always just get a wireless video tx/rx pair and use the audio only. That's probably a better option for the Bluetooth latency problem anyway. Or an audio-only option like this.There are also a lot of wireless headphone options if you have to take it beyond the limit of reason.
OK, I tried to do it for you on the cheap... I mean who doesn't already have wires running from their stereo to their TV? :-)
Well then here you go: but its going to run you north of $50. You will need one of these kits. The transmitter end will connect to your TV, and the receiving end to your stereo. If your stereo does not have a way to select different audio sources (then you should get a proper stereo... Kidding-kinda) then you will need the audio selector box I recommended in my comment above.
Honestly here's how it should be done:
[Cable box] ---hdmi---> [A/V receiver: HDMI input #1] ---hdmi---> [HD TV]
[PC] ---hdmi---> [A/V receiver: HDMI input #2]
[Chromecast] ---hdmi---> [A/V receiver: HDMI input #3]
Here is a nice 4 HDMI input A/V Receiver under $200.
Here is a solid HD TV under $500.
Don't have room for 5.1 channel speakers? Here's a very decent 2.1 channel sound bar. It's under $100.
It's time to step up your game.
