Will this work like I think it will (NODE N130)

Hi guys,

I've currently got a number of devices hooked up to my TV via HDMI (PC, Switch, Chromecast), and the audio is being output to my amplifier via the TV's headphone jack.

I'm thinking of connecting a NODE N130 to my TV's ARC port, and use line out from N130 to my amplifier.

If I do this, am I correct in thinking that:

1. Audio from the sources connected to my TV will be able to come out of my sound system (through HDMI ARC)?
2. I will be able to use the TV's remote control to control the volume on the NODE N130? How about the Chromecast's remote, would that be able to control the volume?

The volume control thing is my primary concern, as I don't really have another solution for this short of changing my amplifier to an AVR (which I don't really want to do).

Thanks!

  You got it. You will be able to control the NODE's volume using the TV or the Chromecast remote.
  
  Make sure that you are using a Certified HDMI cable to get the best experience.
