Hauppauge 350 (splitting audio from decoder)

[SuperGnome]

Hi there,

Anyone know of a way to use the built-in hauppauge 350's video out but use a different renderer for audio?

I only have one pc for the moment, and it's my media center and regular PC. It does double-duty so I like to use the hardware decoder on the card, but then it won't play mp3's where I want (plays them on the pc). I have a mobo with onboard sound and an audigy2 zs. I use the zs for my pc and would like to use the mobo's audio for my media center. The problem is, if I hook the audio up to my mobo, the living room only gets mp3 sounds, radio, etc... If I play an mpeg there is no sound because it's trying to go through the card. If I hook both up to the 350 I get awesome audio/video from mpegs but nothing from mp3's. *8(

I'm thinking there's no way around this, as the decoder just does it all.

Most people connect the audio out of the PVR350 into the line-in on their sound card (or onboard sound), and then the sound card line-out to the tv or stereo. This gives you both audio from MPEG files, and mp3s etc all from the one connection to the tv/stereo.
