[QUOTE="hotponyshoes, post: 216034, member: 59166"] 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!
