[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 482208, member: 83973"] With digital TV, an MPEG 'transport' stream is supplied by the tuner to the MediaPortal TV-server. It is then processed by TV-server to extract the video and audio data for the specific channel being viewed or recorded. In MP itself the audio is then passed to a software codec 'filter' which either decodes it (to discrete 2/3/4/5/6 channels) or passes it 'as is' to the SPDIF output - depending on the codec and audio 'renderer' settings. So basically, you don't need an audio cable connection from tuner to motherboard - it's all done in software. Tony [/QUOTE]
