Hello all,
Been a LONG time since I've been to the saloon.
Background - I've got a 990 matched to a 770 amp. No firmware updates since I got the unit....
I'm putting together a new HTPC with a built in HDDVD and BluRay drive.
I want to output from the HTPC to the 990 and be able to have the 990 decode 5.1/6.1/7.1 sound from the computer or play back the sound that is processed on the computer.
The current sound card I had on the old htpc, if I play DVD or HDDVD (xbox 360 drive), it comes out as PCM 2 channell at least thats all the 990 sees and it uses DP2 to matrix it to all my speakers which is not ideal.
Any suggestions on what sound card I can use to get true DD/DTS to play back on the 990 via a connection to and HTPC? Preferably in a pci-E 1X slot format.
Thanks,
Obi
