How do you get audio? For example if I am using a scart cable for snes which uses the multi out port on the console, how would I hear the console?

Some people actually solder in audio out jacks. I have a scart switch box that has audio out and that works fine for me. The scart switch boxes are about 10-20 bucks.

You can't, which is why I wish I hadn't bought this. (Bought it for same reason)

For the SNES you'll need to make sure and buy a scart cable that breaks out the left and right stereo RCA jacks to a y cable. They are available from amazon sellers.

I am using it with a Sega CD, so I use the RCA out. With a Genesis I, you could use the headphone jack. For the SNES, I think you would need a SCART cable with a separate audio out.

Hey man, actually I just figured out a way for you to send audio from a PS4 to an XPRO2 Pedestal Gaming Chair, or pretty much any chair that has a 3.5mm audio input! Just connect to your PS4 controller, set your controller audio device settings to send [All Audio] and bam! Made a video about it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poDpIVJYCWE

NES does not output RGB without a mod. http://etim.net.au/nesrgb/index.htm more info on what systems can use RGB http://www.retrorgb.com/systems.html it might work with this adapter, but i have not tried it http://www.ebay.com/itm/SCART-Adapter-Audio-Compsite-SVHS-with-IN-OUT-Switch-/380745043102?_trksid=p2054897.l4275

I have mine hooked up with Component cables. I just got my sister an off-brand set at Gamestop for 15 bucks. I think the Nintendo ones cost 30, whichever one you pick will be worth it as it cleans up the picture very nice! Cheers

The mic input works on my PS3, plugged in headphones too, and i could hear audio playback from my mic through my headphones. Unfortunately, you cant get game audio through the PS3 USB so this wouldn't work for something like that.

Bootsy and I both agree on the first question.To answer your second question, it depends on what format the game is being played on. For example, if it is a PC game then yes you can hear the game audio as well as your voice. If you are using a console or third party device then you can attach an auxiliary cord to the Line In plug on your computer (if you have one) and listen in to the game. If you don't have a Line In plug on your computer then shoot me a message and I can find you a cheap USB adapter!Have a great one!

im thinking of buying it too, I already have the surround sound system and ps3 but am wondering how to hook up the sound for the ps3. Easy enough for the cable. run the audio cables from the DVR to the surround sound and the HDMI cable to the projector. But the ps3? Ok i run the HDMI from the ps3 to the projector...but if there isnt an audio out how do i get the sound from the ps3 to the surround sound?

I'm using a digital optical cable and it sounds amazing, if your a gamer and a have a Dolby Digital decoder the games sound amazing when the encoder is on but if you want the best audio quality go with the digital audio cable the card has two ports one in and one out.

It won't work for sound. the VGA signal is video only, no audio. I tried to use mine for a video connection from a DVD player with component out to a TV with a PC/VGA in port. It didn't work either. Apparently it's a one-way cable from from VGA out to component in, and I've since read that's only if the device with component in will translate that VGA signal to component. ...basically, this cable was a waste of money.

What about audio? Specifically, if I have the STR-dg810 as my receiver. I have Blu Ray DVD and HD sat receiver, both of them would use the HDMI connection. However, I also have a Wii I woud like to connect, but Wii only has component video out. So, I should connect the Wii component video out directly to the TV as the receiver won't up convert the signal to use the HDMI out port. Does this also mean the receiver won't pass through the Wii audio to my speaker system? Am I stuck with only having Wii audio via my TV's speakers?

I agree with Kanagaraj. What I do is have the console set up as normal. The speakers are connected to the tv audio output. Turn the tv volume down and just use the speaker volume. It's what I do when I watch movies on my PS3 and it sounds great. Hope this helps!

Luis, here is what I did. I have a basic Dell monitor with a DVI & VGA input connected to my PS3. What I did: (Display)I bought a HDMI to DVI (or HDMI to VGA) and used the HDMI output from the PS3. (Audio)Then, I connected the the PS3 component plug (red/yellow/white) to a pair of desktop speakers. How to: Use the basic component plug (red/yellow/white) [red and white = audio] Go to Radioshack / Amazon or good electronics store and visit the audio department. Purchase an "Audio Component to headphone Jack adapter" What this does : connect red and white component from Xbox/PS3 to this adapter and plug speakers to the other side of the adapter. It should work! Contact me if you need clarification!

Armand S., What options do you have on the back of your audio system? RCA/3.5mm? Optical Audio? --Mr. S

My sound system receiver fried. I would like to hook this directly to my tv or dvd system. Neither of them have speaker jacks. They both have one rca out or multiple s video/audio spots. How does this hook into them? I do not see any outlets other than speaker wire.

It doesn't work on mine, not sure what the problem is, but it doesn't appear to be wired properly to work. I've tried swapping the cables around that I attach to it with no luck even. No video, no audio, only static when all three are connected to my RetroPi Emulator and a TV

By a Scart Switcher with audio out. That's how you could get sound through the scart cable.

If you are using an HDMI cable from the TV output to the receiver you should have audio through the receiver. I assume that you have multiple inputs that are selected by the receiver and you have selected the input that is connected to the TV. I found that there are different audio configurations in the receiver that need to be selected also. The manual offers a lot of information but for me it's too difficult to understand. Try a different HDMI cable and/or input port to begin with.
