Question / Help Audio - Dual Pc - HDMI switch

[Eiinstein]

Hi!

So will try to make this short and everything you need to know. Questions? Add me on steam http://steamcommunity.com/id/Eiinstein/ or just ask here. Thanks.

I have 2 computers (streaming computer and gaming computer) and a PS4. I also just bought a HDMI switch. What I didnt think of was the problem with audio (again).

HDMI Switch is connected like this if it matters: Output connected to Elgato HD60s Input. Elgato HD60s Output to Gaming monitor. PS4 and Gaming PC to Input HDMI Switch.

Right now I have optical cable from PS4 to my mixamp headset. And the headset is connected to gaming pc. So I can hear both sounds, but the stream cant.

If I choose Scene 1 on the HDMI switch the stream only hears Gaming PC
If I choose Scene 2 on the HDMI switch the stream only hears PS4

Is there a way to fix this? What I want is for the stream to hear both PS4 and Gaming PC at both times.

Like I said, have any questions? Ask! I want to fix this!

It seems possible that you're using the switch in reverse of how it was designed. I think they're generally for one device to output to two monitors, not for one device to capture two inputs. So its cool that you got the video to work at least. Can you link the switch you're using? You might need two capture cards, or run the audio separately to a sound card with two inputs, or something similar.
