You are confusing video and audio.
S/PDIF in TVs is a digital audio port. You connect it to an A/V receiver so you can get 5.1 Dolby out of HDTV broadcasts (if available).
Your TV should have an RF input for antenna or cable and composite/s-video/component as well.
So, yes, assuming your TV has RF input you can watch TV via coax

in case you have it, continually use digital, I say. and because you do have a digital output on your laptop and a Toslink port on your sound gadget, you purely choose the right optical cable to connect them. the biggest situation is that in the event that they do no longer look to be next to one yet another, much less costly optical cables are a pair of million-2m in length. Then set your pc sound card to apply the digital output as a replace of the headphone jack. in case your sound gadget handles Dolby digital and DTS (all recent encompass structures do), make confident the pc would not decode the sound first (there ought to be a checkbox for this). To get encompass sound, the two play a action picture or game with encompass sound; in case you're enjoying MP3's, it relatively is purely stereo. commonly, encompass structures can upload ecosystem outcomes to a stereo source to make it appear like encompass even however it relatively isn't any longer.
