    I feel like these style of movies have turned straight into CGI fests with little beyond them. Watching the commercial it's like watching a video game with actors faces stuck unto the characters.
    Yeah, I almost fell asleep watching some CGI movie that was nothing but explosions, chases, more explosions...I need a story, not a video game.

    Yes, you can get bluetooth transmitters that plug into headphone jacks and will send bluetooth signals to your speakers.

    I have an older stereo in the house and would love to broadcast what I'm playing inside to the porch with a wireless setup.

    Understood. Likely will be easier to just buy a new stereo.

    Thanks for the reply.

    I have wired speakers on my porch and use this to play music from my devices via bluetooth, not broadcast to bluetooth. Again, sorry.

    See. I am still confused. I really don't understand this stuff so I apologize if I'm being obtuse.

    I would like to play a CD from my old stereo, have a device connected to said stereo which will broadcast wireless, and have a bluetooth speaker paired to my stereo with said wireless broadcasting device.

    This will do this?

    To clarify I don't want to broadcast from a device (phone, tablet, etc.) and have it play on my stereo. It's the other way around.

    Best of luck to those in the path of Ian. I know of at least one board member who lives in CF.

    Thanks. I will do my best to keep my fingers. I'm fairly good at slicing and dicing.

    I live in Florida and folks have already went crazy with the water, TP, and fuel. Going to change the oil in the generator today and check the expiration dates on those canned goods.
