Alright, I need the help of a wiring expert.
I have a 22" monitor. That I use my computer and xbox on. It has HDMI input, and for sound output there is a 3.5mm jack. Well I tried to hook up the 3.5mm from the monitor to the PC's MIC port, so I could listen to the xbox through my PC, and use both at the same time. I hear some crackling, and the audio from the hdmi port just disappears. I cannot get audio from the monitor anymore. Here are some solutions I had, but I need help with them:
1. Reflow / Fuse repair.
Could I have burnt something? Should I reflow the board (probably would help NOTHING) or should I look for fuses and bridge them? I suck at finding fuses, so If I uploaded pictures of the boards inside the motherboard, would you guys be able to look at them for me?
2 HDMI to RCA/ 3.5mm
This is another obvious solution. But there is no adapter that exists. Unless someone can find me one, I would love for someone to make me a diagram where I could wire up an HDMI - HDMI AND 3.5mm adapter. There are hdmi to hdmi adapters, so all I would have to do is wire up 3.5mm jack to one port on the adapter right? And I could do display to the monitor, and audio directly to the speakers?
Thanks in advanced.
