How to Set Up a Sound Device on MythTV

You can connect computer speakers directly to your desktop.

MythTV is a computer program that allows you to record content from a connected TV source, such as an antenna cable or satellite. When using MythTV on your computer you do need an audio device connected, and any computer speaker set will work for this purpose. Although there are many different speakers available for computers, the actual connection process will always be the same.

Things You'll Need

• Computer speakers

Instructions

1. Connect the computer speakers to a local electrical outlet.

2. Plug the 3.5mm cable running out of the computer speakers into the "Line-Out" port on the back end of the computer. If using a laptop, plug the cable into the headphone jack.

3. Power on the computer speakers and load MythTV. All programming that plays with the software now plays over the connected speakers.
