my wife and I wish to listen to the tv using two pair of Bluetooth in ear powerbeat Bluetooth headphones to listen to smart TV at same time.
I paired them to the Smart Panasonic TV but the tv only excepts one earphone at any one time.
I did purchase a panasonic pair of over the ear headphones they are pluged via cable from the cradle to the TV (that worked but I not find them as comfortable as the Powerbeats).
So is there a way were we can both listen to the tv using bluetooth earphones or any other work around that anyone can suggest. Thanks in advance

Bluetooth was invented to create a secure(or semi-secure) connection between 2 devices. It was not designed to work like a network and connect more than 2 devices (host and client) at a time. It's possible in the future, but I don't think you'll get both headphones to connect to the TV at the same time through Bluetooth.

You may be able to find a couple of wireless headphones that are comfortable and that will connect to the same wireless signal.

23.10.2015 I found the answer. I purchased Avantree multipoint Bluetooth Transmitter Priva II which I have just received and it works!!!!!!!!
My wife can wear her PowerBeats and I can also at the same time wear my PowerBeats. The reception is spot on. So I suggest for anyone who wishes to have 2 pair of Headphones or earphones working at the same time, then purchase the Avantree Priva II Multipoint Bluetooth Transmitter.
Hope this helps anyone who has had the same problem as we had.
