This is a useful tool if you have multiple digital audio devices you want to switch, it's been common for like 30 years to put SPDIF optical and/or coaxial outputs on all sorts of AV equipment but almost nobody ever made fully digital switchers/mixers like you might have more than one of those you'd like to blend or at least switch between

For use as monitor But this is sci.electronics design I remember in the old days I wanted video-in from my Philips LDL1000 VCR

ldl-1000 totaal02.html on my TV that that had its chassis live. Philips made an IF modulator and a switch, so mains decoupling via RF transformer, you had to build it into the TV.... selected between tuner and VCR.
I modified that recorder for color and build a RF modulator.
So open the beast, find the audio on the PCB, do an optical isolation and make your own output. Is not that hard is it now?

Or better even use a dual opamp to drive 2 600 to 600 Ohm audio transformers and now you can put it into any mixer or amplifier and no ground loops and it is a standard. Or at least it was...
You'd change the input (typically, there's a few HDMIs, and one or two game-port or VGA analog inputs). Input, TV input, or Source will be likely buttons on the remote...

????????? is this sci.electronics.desing???
You can actually learn a lot from looking a bit closer and an other angle than from the screen at modern equipment Something you will have to do in fault finding repair and maintenance, The knowledge you gain from understanding designs from others is invaluable. If it is all too difficult did you not just bore an new intern to death by pestering him / her /it with some beads?
Now there is a simple beginners task, an audio output.

Oh boy
Well I repaired my Samsung monitor some years ago, replaced electrolytic caps in the power supply. For the rest I must say I am very content with Samsung, TV, monitors, laptop. All keeps working over the years.
There is a law in the making here in the EU that requires things to be repairable, just to decrease the garbage heap ...

I think this is a good thing.
Well interns I have had had an electronics education, you would expect them to figure out how to measure things and make an audio output on some TV,'
Probably would learn from it.
BTW in the simplest form, as TV has speakers, and that bad sound is usually due to the housing of the TV, say those say '8 Ohm", now make a plug for left and right on the back and a switch. Speaker cables to some real 8 Ohm speakers, gold is OK, but more as investment, not so much for the HiFi.
