Listening music while watching TV

2005-03-07, 01:41

I don't know if anybody likes to do it, but sometimes i prefer to watch TV while listening music. Therfore, I suggest the option to listen your playlist or radio station instead of TV audio while watching TV. Anybody maybe have thoughts about this?

well you're not the only one.. it's actually kinda nice for parties and the such. might have music playing but a game on mute in the background. even most decent receivers have this functionability these days. for mine and usually for most, you use the remote and select your video source first and then the audio source second.

maybe there can be a section that can overide/mix and match video and audio sources. at default it just links the two, but if wanted, you could select the current audio\video source and switch only that.

yeh thats a nice idea

i have the same setup as u described....deecue...and perhaps when watching TV ..it brings up the TV video and audio....whenever u want to have music playing instead of the TV audio...simply go into My Music\My Radio" and select an audio stream....

MP then cuts out the TV audio leaving the TV video playing ..but with the My Music\Radio playing the audio

in the end u have TV video and Music/Radio/internet audio

TNx for replays

The solution for the radio stations works great. Still, I would also like to play my audio files and playlist while watching TV.
