http://www.maximumpc.com – Exploiting the Analog Hole HDMI is vastly superior to the high-definition connectivity solution of yore, which relied on one of two types of digital cables for audio and a second, well-shielded, three-gang cable for component video. Unfortunately, HDMI is tightly entwined with HDCP, and that DRM standard interferes with our ability to exercise our fair-use rights to time-shift TV programming and to make back-up copies of Blu-ray movies. If you’re willing to settle for digital recordings of analog high-definition content, Hauppauge has a solution that exploits the so-called “ana (General)

I have two different sound devices for output: "Internal Audio Analog Stereo" for headphones "High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo (HDMI)" for speakers
