Multiroom and TV

Dear All,

I have a very simple question : i have a tv, and i would like to hear the sound of my tv through sonos multiroom environment in every room of my house. ​​​

Could you please help me out on what equipment i have to buy and what protocol  i have to use in order to connect these equipments together ?

I thought a connected tv with connected speakers would work together easily, however it seems not to be the case

thanks for your help

@alexis0391,
Just to add there are some tools in the Sonos App that you can perhaps consider in this context too..

  • ‘TV Dialog Sync’ - slider control - allows the user to adjust/buffer the TV-audio on the HT room and its bonded surrounds, to try to bring the playing TV-audio in sync with the ‘grouped’ rooms. That of course has its disadvantages too with the video on screen, such as lip-sync, but is often fine when playing from TV music-only Apps and the display is not critical to the listening experience.
  • ’Group Audio Delay’ - a low/medium/high/max setting - allows for greater delay/audio-buffer of the TV-audio to all grouped rooms, which is useful for coping with the higher demands of TV-audio across a wired/wireless network to multiple rooms and can help prevent audio dropouts to those rooms. The delay is often irrelevant if the ‘grouped’ devices are located in an entirely different physical room with walls in-between etc. It helps to ensure reliable TV-audio playback on some problematic, or poorly implemented, networks that maybe suffering from wireless interference etc.
