I want to have my TV and PC connected to the same sound system which is a "custom" surround 4.0. I currently have wired 2 speakers to the line out of my integrated PC sound card and 2 speakers to the line in and configured it for surround. The TV is connected to the PC through HDMI.
This works, but I want to add a media center box (Raspberry Pi) to the TV (through HDMI) and use the surround instead of the integrated speakers in the TV. So my idea is to add a sound card with optical in like Karaoke Reverb CMI8768 connect it to the TV through SPDIF and connect the speakers as before.
My concerns are:
- Is it going to work
- Is it going to require manual configuration each time I want to switch the audio input signal between the PC and the TV.
My motherboard is ASRock H61M-U3S3 (it doesn't have SPDIF) so I need the sound card.
Thank's for the answer, it seems like it won't be a very good solution. – Vasil Kalchev – 2015-12-29T08:57:11.913
