    CodeMonkey, I am not sure that I understand your query?

    The terms "composite" and "component" refer to video only connections. Composite is a single RCA connector (usually colored yellow) and component is 3 RCA connectors colored red, blue and green. The sound is carried on completely separate connection/s.

    I am guessing that you want to feed the sound from your soundcard to your TV's sound input?

    In which case you just need a cable with a 3mm stereo phono plug on one end (to go into the line-out of your sound card), and probably 2 RCA (colored red and white) on the other end to go to the audio in of your TV?

    Please feel free to ignore what I have just written if I have missed the point of your query...... :?

    Hmmm.. Do you mean hving rca (round single plugs one channel each) on a new soundcard cabled to your tv?

    If so an excellent soundcard is the Audiphile cards.
    But, however it's not needed.

    You can purchase a RCA->3.5mm cable to connect your existing soundcard to your tv-set.

    Did I answer your question correctly?`

    Excuse my bad english.

    Default Direct Sound Device was the problem. MPAR worked better than Dircect Sound, but is still a problem. Changed Audio Renderer to use the TV and it's working.

    I also have never used a set-top box with MP, but I think that you need to use an IR emitter (aka "IR blaster"). The IRSS software controls the emitter, and transmits IR signals under the direction of MP. The IR signal is received by the IR receiver within the set-top box, and so can be used to change channel and so on. The set-top...

    There has been some jigger-pokery going on with the Windows volume OSD in newer MP-1 versions to get it and the MP volume OSD to display as per the options in MP Config. The behaviour you are seeing will be fixed in the next release, the Windows volume OSD will appear very briefly on MP exit on the desktop but fades away completely...
