Hallo,
3. Did you get dolby 5.1 sound ?
Onboard sound is only standard stereo. Again: This will cost you a PCI
slot.
I absoluty want an 5.1 sound. May an Asus or an Elite card ...
If you don't mind "wasting" a PCI-slot then go for an CMI8738 Soundcard.
Works fine here with AC3.
Hmmm ... and if you've money around buy a sound card like RME Digi96 which
includes the feature to be able to be switched into `slave' mode which means
that the S/P-DIF in is used for reference instead of the onbaord quart.
Clearly for input _and_ reference the S/P-DIF out of the DVB card is just
perfect.
As far as I have heard the SB Live 5.1 should also be OK - no guarantee as I
have not tested it myself ;)
The SB Live 5.1 should be switched into raw PCM out mode, that means that
the PCM data should _not_ be modified by the card.
Werner
thank all for your help choosing the good material.
I 'll give news soon.
Best regards
