Hello,
So I use this PC as a HTPC. Just got a new TV down here. On my old TV it had Coaxial audio out. So I just used HDMI from my PC to my TV (muted my TV) and just passed the audio via Coax to my stereo receiver. I liked this because I could control my volume with one remote by adjusting the volume on my PC.
Now I got a new TV and it only has optical audio out. So I have HDMI going from my PC to my TV and my motherboard has optical audio out. So I just have that toslink going directly from my PC to my receiver. Now the issue with optical is I can't control the volume of everything via the PC i have to do some controlling on the receiver. Like in the windows environment I can control the volume via my PC. In 7MC when watching TV I have to control the volume via the receiver. Also my movies in 7MC some I can control using PC, some I have to use receiver. I want to just go back to coax where everything just worked, but don't know how.

This is the motherboard I have. It doesn't have Coax audio out on any of those jacks does it? If not can I plug all those multicolored ones into some sort of converter that will output to a single Coax connection?
