is there such a switch?

My HD box (FIOS) supports both component out or RCA out. BUT the audio outs used for component are the same audio outs if I were using RCA cables. So I'm unable to keep both the full sets of component and RCA cables plugged in at the same time.

The RCA cables are for my computer PVR so right now I have to manually unplug the audios of my component to plug in my RCA audios.

I want a switch of some sort so I don't have to manually plug/unplug these things (2 sets of red/white audio cables). Is there such a thing? Link?

^ sorry I clarified my original post now. Should be more clear.

I already have a similar switch but I don't think it works here (the PVR's RCA outs go to the back of my machine, whereas the type of switch linked goes to my LCDTV only - swapping between XBOX/FIOS box).

I'm basically asking of a plug that splits red/white audio OUT plugs into 2 working ones.

So you want a splitter, not a switch it sounds like. Something like this has only one Issue I can think of, and that is it will transmit 1/2 power to both devices, so you would need to keep the audio higher to keep it comparable.
