iPhone App As Wireless Headphone

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

Does anyone use your iphone running some app as a wireless stream receiver? I came across this iphone app called headset and want to know if anyone has tried it or a similar app. Basically, it allows you to watch a movie on a PC and stream the sound through wireless network to your iphone or ipod touch so that you can listen to it with a headphone. If someone has tried it, I'd like to know if there is any delay in the sound and how's the quality of the sound and in general the convenience of using the app.

i used AirFoil (http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/) for a while and attempted to use it as a wireless audio device for movies, but there was a delay for sure, now if you use VLC you can combat that delay by setting the audio to either lag or play earlier, but it just wasnt fluid enough for movies IMO
