USB Headset Audio

I just picked up a Logitech ClearChat Comfort USB Headset to use with my PS3. The chat function works perfectly, but I have a question.

Is it possible to have all the audio, not just the chat, go to the headset? I need this because 1) then the gameplay audio on my end won't disturb anyone else and 2) It's a lot clearer and footsteps are more audible.

If not in game, is it possible to watch videos that are on my HDD with the audio on the headset?

First time you use it, go to 'Accessories' in the Settings menu. Then go to 'Audio Devices', and go down to 'Input'. There, hit 'X' and then scroll until you find the name of the headset. Do the same with 'Output', and you're all set.

lol thanks man, once again sorry for stealing your thunder.

No problem.

PS- BUMP!!

At Futureshop in Canada.

You could always buy it online if you need to. This one's good for chat, but I still have no idea if I can route all audio to it.

Please forgive my annoyance lol but I really need a headset

Bingo that's the one.

Just so you know, the packaging will take you hours to get open.

Stabbing it wildly with a knife does help, though.

I'm asking myself the same simple question:

How can I output the ps3 audio to my headset other than in gaming chat mode, and is it possible at all ???

yep. its a no-go for sound. i found out the hard way also. gonna try an return the headset and buy a turtle beach headset built just for ps3. heres the link for it.

The p21 from turtle beach is one of two or three headsets that I have seen that use both chat AND game audio in the headset. It accomplishes this be having RCA "piggy back" jacks to get the audio signal and usb for the mic.

RCA Piggy back jack's are on the right side of this pic.

The X4 from turtle beach has 5.1 headsets that DO WORK using the optical (I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THEM PERSONALLY) for the PS3, but the chat function does NOT work. Each ear cup has 4 speakers 1 being bass. Then again who wants to spend $200 for headsets. They have mentioned new PS3 headsets coming out before the new Modern Warfare 2 release but that may only have included the p21's. Tritton also heve headsets for the PS3 but are just as or more expensive. When it comes down to it games like COD4 the audio just from your TV doesn't cut it and a sound system would have to be EXTREMELY loud for you to be able to hear foot steps and breathing like I can from my headsets.
