Hi guys, I bought a Philips HTB-3560K together with a philips 42" LCD TV. I am connecting my PC to TV via HDMI 1 and my home theater is connected to my TV via HDMI 2. If I were to play movie from my computer, the audio output is still from my TV and not my home theater set. Please advise thank you

QUOTE(skeelee @ Jun 23 2013, 05:41 PM) Going through Philips' website about 3560K, there are Aux-in and Digital-Optical-in for audio, but there is no HDMI-in. Therefore, the best option open to you is to connect your PC to 3560K using the optical link. You need to configure your PC to use the Optical audio instead of HDMI. The video will still be through HDMI from the PC directly to TV. Since your PC has HDMI, I suppose it also comes with optical output. Hi my bad, its a laptop, there is no optical output. BTW, is there any way for me to connect any additional cables from TV and HT or HT to TV?

Actually, can i connect a digital optic cable from my home theater to TV. Video from PC will be through HDMI?
