[QUOTE="1213dcool, post: 926653, member: 127521"] Hi, I have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro, and therefore I was looking into making my old white MacBook into a home theater computer so I can watch all of my movies and TV shows stored on my external hard drives with Plex. This brings me to my two questions: Is it possible to change the settings on my MacBook so It is able to run with the screen closed? I would like to connect my laptop directly to my receiver. If I used an audio interface such as an M-Audio Fast Track Pro (I have one laying around), could I connect the S/PDIF output on the interface to the receiver, would it be 5.1? Thanks, Devon [/QUOTE]
