Hi all.

I've got a large Plasma with Arcam surround sound system in my lounge and have attached my computer to the Arcam AV via the Optic Out on my Soundblaster card.

So now I can play all my on-board albums as well as BBC Listen Again and Live programmes through this system. I can also record the audio from, for example, audio described movies from Sky, into GoldWave on my computer. It's really very cool but there is a slight inconvenienced. I still use a 17 inch flat screen display with my computer. I've been told that my plasma will take the signal from my computer, so that I can do away with my 17 inch. So after all this, to my question. Does anyone know if I can use the Plasma for Watching the Sky TV and DVD's and when I'm using the computer, see all the Goldwave and Windows Explorer stuff on the Plasma?

I'm happy to tell any interested list members how to go about creating such a system if anyone is interested.

Thanks in advance.

Andy.
