[QUOTE="joho500, post: 235029, member: 51870"] Hi eetaylog, The best way IMHO is to use the digital out (SPDIF; coaxial or optical) of your soundcard to connect to your home cinema amplifier. The quality of your soundcard isn't even close to that of an amplifier. Than use AC3filter as codec for DVD and Movies. It's able to passthrough SPDIF so the AC3 or DTS stream can be decoded by your amplifier. Beware though, with some soundchips (e.g. onboard Soundmax) you need to replace the default audio renderer with one that supports Wave Out. You can use ReClock renderer for that. It took me a couple of days surfing on the net and changing my setup to find this out and get it working. Hope this helps you a bit. Joost [/QUOTE]
