I would purchase a glare free Samsung OLED tv if I could be assured that i could simultaneously listen to the TV speakers and Sennheiser headphones which use a RF transmitter connected to the TV by an optical cable.  This works for Sony and LG but no one so far has assured me it would work on the Samsung QN90f or S90f or S95f.

I am not talking about Bluetooth. I am rather deaf and use the headphones. My partner uses the TV speakers.  I get different answers from Google AI , store employees and Samsung TV support in Canada. Thank you.

pretty sure new tvs dont have optical port. does "rf transmitter" device only have optical port? do the headphones not have Bluetooth, i assume you only use the specific headphones because they make specific frequencies louder in your ear. how is anything being transmitted with radio if they are hardwired headphones converting an analog optical signal into a 3.5mm port digital signal?

as far as im aware, Bluetooth IS radio anyways so why not bite the bullet. anything newer than 2022 has multi audio, anything older still supports multiple Bluetooth outputs as is standard

You can go to the Samsung website, pull up the product page and look at the spec sheet. The one OLED model I looked at specified both digital optical audio output and BT audio output.
