audio combiner?

Hi all,

I often use my tv and laptop at the same time - playing gta through the tv and havibng a skype conversation through the computer. I can only listen to one set of headphones at once, so something has to be on loudspeaker which is antisocial late at night.

I know you can get hordes of different headphone splitter, that take 1 input to 2 outputs. What I am after is the reverse - something to combine 2 inputs to one output.
I know you cannot simmply use a splitter in reverse, as each input tries to drive the other one the wrong way down the wire.

So does a cheap, effective headphone mixer exist? I'm not after a 100 quid dj mixing deck, just a fiver or so's box of tricks and cabling.

Does such a thing exist?

Hi

What sort of person talks on a face-to-face thing like skype whilst still playing a computer game?

Rhetorical.

I'll answer it anyway - the sort of person who wants to have a group conversation with other players in the game, without a) broadcasting it for everyone in the lobby, and b) in a quality far more intelligible than bluetooth


Anyway, thanks for the other suggestions chaps. Does a computer automatically route any line-in sound back out of the headphone jack or does this need specifically configuring?

Ohhhhhh I see, you're a troll.

How cute.
