Question by monky_bizzness_2: How can I connect a home theatre system to a computer?
I have a 1000w phillips home theatre receiver with 5.1 speakers and want to hook it up to my computer for FULL surround sound (not stereo rca).
I also have a barracuda sound card and 780i motherboard that are both 7.1 compatible and a sambsung 26″ hdmi monitor and a blueray drive by sony.
What connections would I need to make this happen so I can listen to blueray movies on these speakers?

Answer by TheBigAndy You are going to have to have either an optical or digital coax cable to get actuall surround sound from the pc to the sound system.
This is a start-to-finish look at how I built my 120″ projector screen using countertop laminate, aluminum tubing, 1x3s, and fleece. I’ll do my best to answer everyone’s questions in the comments. Make sure you check out my other videos if you have questions about the IR lighting setup because I cover the specifics of what is needed to set the remote controlled lighting up.

I want to give a big shout out to Booger for making a video about it and recommending it! I was looking for an amazing surround sound system! 10/10 – Awesome features for the price! It upscales better than both the PS3 and Xbox 360 in my opinion. I paid 7 including tax. This is the closet thing I could find on the Wal-Mart website to what I have, be sure to check your local wal-mart for my model if you want it: www.walmart.com BoogerBoyMeister’s channel (definitely sub to him, he’s one of the funniest dudes on Youtube!): www.youtube.com

Setting up the SC-HTB15 sound bar is easy and simple. Just place it in front of the TV and connect to the TV and a Blu-ray Disc™ player with HDMI cables. The SC-HTB15 realizes realistic live sound which cannot be experienced with TV speakers.
Audio Return Channel (ARC) Simple Connection with HDMI Cable
The SC-HTB15 is compatible with a new feature of Audio Return Channel (ARC). ARC allows receiving audio signals from the TV, on top of the preexisting HDMI function of sending audio/video signals to the TV with just one cable. This new feature will simplify the connection by eliminating an audio cable connection between TV audio output and the main unit's audio input.
