audio media player/TV

[aparnaku]

I have connected a micca spec media player via an HDMI cable to the samsung 1080 TV. the video is in a gallery and i need the audio to come out from headphones, NOT from the TV. None of the jacks work behind the TV work to send sound to headphones. where do i plug the audio 3.5mm of headphones ?

SImple way is to turn the TV speakers off and connect a bluetooth transmitter to the audio output of the TV. Use bluetooth headphones.
If you have to use a wired connection you would need a DAC/headphone amp to convert the digital audio out of the TV to analog and boost it enough to run headphones.
