    I'm not 100% techsavvy and all that on the matter, but seeing as noone has replied I'll give you 2 pence. Now be off with you.







    The only way I can think of doing it would be to go:

    aerial -> pctv card
    then
    sound card -> speakers.

    I would have thought that speakers such as logitechs and the like were designed to be used with a PC rather than a television. Kind of like using a Ladyshave to brush your teeth - designed for one task, but not another.

    You can use the audio out put from your scart socket on the TV, as this is line level. Get a switched Scart to RCA adaptor, then a RCA to minijack lead. And hey presto. I do this, but use the RCA outs on my freeview box into the back of the pc. Rather than taking the signal from the scart socket.

    if you havent got line-out sockets then just use the headphone sockets and turn it up on the amp, down on the tv, should work fine.
