Does the SPDIF passthrough fine
operating system:Windows XPUsing the AC3 Filter I can get genuine Dolby Digital and DTS passthrough to my AV receiver. You have to use the filter's "trick" setting of otuputting SPDIF as PCM to get the data going to the reciever.
For a £10.99 soundcard I'm dead happy because my laptop is all set for home cinema. Also all sound goes through the SPDIF so music is fantastic quality too.
I was surprised to see that it includes a TOSlink cable! Rather scrawny one but at least it's there so you can get started straight away. Make sure you get AC3Filter though!!
Just what it says on the tin
operating system:Not ApplicableBrilliant piece of kit. I need this when using my laptop for DJing. I needed a second soundcard on the laptop.
This does exactly what I wanted - gives a good enough sound quality to run through to the amp, and my laptop still allows access to the old soundcard - so I can use both simultaniously (for cueing up etc)
Id reccomend this - the price is a steal.
On the slight downside, the usb cable attatched to the actual soundcard is tiny. So they have included a USB extension cable - but this is just a little bit too long. But still 5 stars.
Works in linux
operating system:LinuxPlug it in and it works a charm with my 5.1 speakers. No CDs or drivers needed. Plug it in and turn up the bass.
How to get opitcal surround working in vista
Hi there you can get it to work with this workaround.
1. Right click the speaker icon in task bar then Playback device.
2. Set "Speakers" as the default device for c-media device.
3.Then click speakers again and the configure button at the bottom left of the box will light up.
4. Then use the configure to select what speaker setup you have. then exit
5.Then goto the C-media control panel Set "SPDIF Out" as the output device for Digital sound.
6. Then select what output you want and quality.
You will then have Surround sound through the optical in Vista.
Vista handles sounds different to XP so you have to use this workaround.
Hope that helps
