ares35best streaming device to pair with a pc monitor and speakers?
this is for mostly amazon prime, netflix, and siriusxm use (already subscribed to and currently used via browser on a pc)....
rufusMaybe buy one of those HDMI Audio Extractor Adapters and hook up a Fire TV stick, or a Roku or the box or stick from Xiaomi, Nokia 8010, Chromecast or an Apple TV.
I think it’ll be easier and cheaper to use an adapter instead of finding something that comes with 3.5mm audio.
i think they're limited to apple, fire or roku devices for the siriusxm support (which is still a relatively new feature of that service).
i hadn't considered a splitter or extractor yet because they're very much hit-or-miss on quality and whether they actually work as described.
does anyone have any suggestions for an audio extractor they know will work with netflix, prime, and siriusxm without any glitches or 'protection' (hdcp) issues and one of those streaming devices? total budget would probably be around $100 max for both items.
Sorry, no idea. There are however offerings on Amazon with HDCP in the name. Maybe you can find a review there that matches your use-case.
And with the SiriusXM requirement, it seems you’re resteicted to their supported devices anyways. I thought AndroidTV was easier to use…
