Hi everyone!
As I'm about to run XBMC (Media Center) on my iMac, I have some questions that I hope you can help me out with. First let me explain my situation:
I wan't to connect my LCD television to my iMac thru the Mini Displayport to DVI. I then want to run the Media Center in one of my space. This way, I'll be able to use the iMac, but also see my Media Center on my LCD.
Now the tricky question... What about the sound?
I plan on using a Jack -> Optical converter, so i can stream digital sound - this is no problem. But is it somehow possible to use both the internal speakers and at the same time "reserve" the Audio out for the space running my Media Center.
If so, I would be able to use the iMac for normal usage - but at the same time watch a movie on my LCD in the living room having the "correct audio" both places...
The tricky part is the sound... Hope someone knows the answer?
Thanks!
