So here's what I got... Epson 7240 Pro projector and a MacBook and a Bluetooth speaker. What I want to do... Stream Netflix on laptop and output to projector via usb or hdmi on projector But Bluetooth audio to separate speaker (cause the Epson has no audio out). Problem is, running a Apple lightning to hdmi to the projector disconnects my Bluetooth signal to the speaker. If I output from the MacBook via a USB-c to USB to the projector, will I be able to maintain my Bluetooth connection tot the speaker ? Am at wits end.
 
Solution
I don't think you can use USB as the video connection between the macbook and projector.
You can use an HDMI input selector with audio extraction to provide an audio input for a bluetooth transmitter.

And.... if i output from the MacBook's USB-C port to a USB on the Epson projector, will this 'feed' only carry the video signal and still allow me to sync the MacBook to an external Bluetooth speaker for audio purposes ?
