You cannot connect your wireless Bluetooth headphone to a regular TV that is neither smart nor Android/Apple. On standard flat panel or LCD Televisions, you will have a 3.5mm headphone jack, which supports standard headphones. But even if you try to go with the standard wired headphones, you will not be able to watch the shows by sitting at a convenient distance. So, the end way to solve this and connect your Bluetooth headphone is to buy and use the Bluetooth transmitter/receiver.

Editor’s Note: When you connect your Bluetooth headphone with the TV using the separate transmitter, make sure your headphone supports aptX low-latency transmission to avoid audio delay. Otherwise, there will not be enough sync between audio and video.
Use RF Wireless Headphones
Apart from the most popular Bluetooth wireless headphones, the RF or Radio Frequency supported headphones are also available, which provides a consistent connection to a longer range than the Bluetooth ones. The RF headphones need their corresponding transceiver module to be connected with the audio source. Therefore, we can use them with any audio device with no wireless support.
The RF headsets use Radio signals to transmits the audio between the source and the headphone. Since they are faster in transmitting data audio-video sync will be greater with them. You can buy an RF headphone and connect it to any device including TV that has an audio output source. You can connect the base for every RF wireless headphones to the TV’s headphone jack or AV Out ports easily.
