Janean Guz: I have a Xi-Fi sound card with an optical input. As for the software, anyone have any suggestions as to which one to get, I havent googled it, thought I would ask for suggestions first.
Azalee Ahrendes: There are a couple of things you should mind.1. PS3 audio settings must be set to output through optical cable. This can be done in the audio configuration menu. 2. You need a digital input on your sound card.3. If you use Windows XP: Configure your sound settings, you must select DIGITAL IN, OPT or someting matching. You can now eighter play sound from your PC aswell as sound from your PS3 the same time.4. If you use windows VISTA, there is no direct solution for your problem. Vista doesn't come with a optical passthrough option as XP has. Therefor you must install a third party software that enables optical sound passthrough. Another solution is an additional receiver, Though these are quite expesive, searching for software that enables you to play exte! rnal optical sound via PC is a better solution. Try google'ing it!Good luck...Show more
Burt Cheevers: Are you sure you connected the PS3 to your PC's optical INPUT? Most PCs do not have optical audio INPUTs, only OUTPUT - meaning your PC's sounds would be sent to another receiver, like your home theater system.
