TV AVR 5.1 Setup Options

[cribbinyou]

I have two rooms currently with a wiim mini and a wiim pro.

I'm looking to setup a 3rd room its a TV room ideally with 5.1 setup. What are my options? Ideally I would like to keep the 5.1 even if compressed. I want the ability to steam the tv audio to the other two rooms. Any help appreciated.

You should be able to try out some options with the two wiims you have.
e.g. 5.1 in 3rd room implies an avr, probably connected to tv via hdmi.
Maybe the optical out from the tv works in parallel with hdmi?
Try tv optical into wiim pro, and that grouped to the mini to see if that works, although often it's either hdmi or optical out of tv, not both.
Or the avr should have a left/right out (maybe pre-out, being variable volume, or maybe line out, being fixed volume), which could go into the pro's (or mini's) analog in, again grouped.
