Play audio on server and video on client?

[tsoernes]

Is it possible to play the audio from the client when a client is streaming a movie. I have the server connected to my stereo receiver by wire but I have no means of connecting the TV to the stereo, so I want the PC to output the audio.

And what kind of TV do you have? And which client is the TV using? Android TV? Roku?

And what kind of stereo do you have? If it supports ARC (audio return channel) via HDMI or optical TOSLINK, those are options for getting audio from the TV to your stereo.
