Home cinema set up question
I've just built a pc for a friend who wants an integrated home cinema set up. The pc is no problem and is all done & ready. The overall set up will be like this:
Sky+ box into xp media centre. Media centre into 50" Samsung lcd. Telly outputs into some kind of surround speaker system - tbc. Now hooking the pc & the telly up is no problem, however, the audio output on the pc is from a creative audigy soundcard. What I'm not certain of is whether I will need to stick the output from the soundcard into the telly, and the telly then drives the amp to the speakers or whether the output from the soundcard will go directly to the amp, bypassing the tv altogether.
Either way, I don't foresee a major problem, but the variable is he hasn't finally decided on which way to go on the speaker setup. I just wonder if any ppruners have built similar systems and could share their experience?
