    Dan, I don't think you've told us what TV this is - just that it's unbranded. What size is it?
    Instead of wasting money making up for the rubbish TV you bought in the first place, this might be a perfect excuse for an upgrade. None of the 'workarounds' above will be as convenient, or sound as good, as simply having a proper headphone socket to use...
  • It is a 26" LCD TV that came free with a Dreams TV Bed (San Diego model). It is unbranded and the TV and the instruction manual have no company information written anywhere.

    I dont really want to spend £150+ on a new TV, not yet anyway.

    See posts #23 and #28

    Scart/Phono (Bi-directional) to converter.
    Converter to joint
    Speakers to joint
    Headphones to headphone out of speakers.
  • Hi on post #28 the first link isnt working / showing a specific product.
  • As mentioned by googler at posts 15, 17 and 55 it looks as if your TV's SCART is input only. Assuming that is the case, which seems highly likely, I don't see how Linbox's suggestion is going to work either.
