Ive been searching for one, but someone, I am entirely unable to find one. I dont understrand WHY its so difficult, i feel like its super straightforward ?

I have a set of 5.1 speakers. logitech z506. It has an in for 3.5 audio, the green / orange / black trio.

My computer and and TV are near each other, so i want to be able to use the speakers for either of them. Not at the same time, but be able to switch from TV input to PC input, without having to plug/unplug cables.

My computer does have the 3 3.5mm cable output, as well as a optical audio output. I believe my TV only has RCA out for stereo, but it does also have an optical audio output port.

So, Im looking for something that has 2 input, either 2 optical or 1 optical + 3x3.5mm(green/orange/black) to 1 output, the green/orange/black 3.5mm

But i absolutely cannot find anything. Closest ive seen are AV reveiver, which is just massively overkill and too expensive to just use it as an audio switch

Anyone know how i can find those ? It cant possibly not exist right?

If you have any solution or products i could buy that be great. ( Especially if its available in Canada )

    I don’t think you’re going to find this. You’ve got a surround sound speaker set up for a computer not for home theater, you might be able to find an audio capture device with an optical in you could use to plug your tv audio into the pc and output through the speakers. More than likely you’ll be limited to the rca stereo outs to the pc.
