I could really use some help. I just recently started dabbling with an electric guitar that was given to me (I'm a classical guitarist). I bought a Mustang I amp as for my first. So far I am able to use the software along with the amp. I really love it!

Anyways what I would love to do is be able to do is to listen to some videos on my PC while hearing my amp on the same headset. Right now I have ear buds from my amp to my ears and over that I have another pair of headphones ahahah. Hey it works! but it's a pain in the butt. I'm not trying to record anything I just want the ability to hear both on one set of headphones. Any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

Your best bet would be to plug a wire with jack plugs both ends, into the 'speaker out' socket on the PC. Plug other end into the AUX socket on the Mustang.. and you're done.
You'll need to control the video volume from the PC.

yep, that would do it. I would just add that a lot of computer manufacturers label the jack 'Line Out' instead of 'Speaker Out'.

Sometimes there is just icons with color coding, they often look like these icons:

And sometimes they aren't labeled at all, with just color coding of the jacks:

The colors might not be consistent, but usually you need the green jack for line out (speaker out).
