When my sound card died I discovered that I can run hdmi to my tv and then run my toslink cable from my tv to my stereo. But the sound seems to be stuck in stereo. Is there a way to enable surround sound from this configuration?
It's usually the case of the TV not being able to pass 5.1 back through optical from an HDMI source. Your best best is to get a cheap sound card with an optical output.
ok I guess I have it figured out. All I have is one dvi to hdmi, and one hdmi to hdmi, so I couldnt daisy chain from pc to receiver to tv. But I was able to run the dvi from the pc to the hdmi on the tv, and also connect hdmi from the pc to the hdmi-in on the receiver.
