Hi all,
I am hoping to connect my htpc to my hi-fi system using the optical output from the motherboard into a digital to audio converter.
This is a stand-alone hi-fi seperate not a surround sound reciver.
It is working but there is no control of the volume.
Aside from the ffd codec pack only the standard mediaportal codecs are installed,
I have (I think) turned the ffd settings for digital pass through off but the volume control still wont work on the optical!
Any ideas?
Thanks!
