Hello to everyone.
I have this problem to solve.
I have a Dell Zino HD (Inspiron 400). I'm trying to find a solution for bitstream (passthrough) all audio through toslink.
I can not use the hdmi output, as my audio receiver do not have a hdm in port. I have to connect the hdmi to the tv, and that kill the passthrough (it convert signal to stereo PCM).
I have an old audiotrak maya ex usb soundcard (driverless). Under XP audio passthrough worked like a charm. In 7 (preinstalled on Zino) no way. Only PCM. I think this comes from the different technology for bitstream between xp and 7.
So my first question is: is there any way of force the bitstream for a USB soundcard in XP?
Second question: does anyone know a usb soundcard with passthrought for DD/DTS/AC3 under windows 7 64 bit?
Thank you!
