SB0220 Live

Hello

Can anyone help me with the signal names on the 5 pin SPDIF_IO connector on this SB Live card? I'm looking for a digital output, and this card does not have the AUD_EXT connector. My intent is to route it to a dig. input on a SB0060. All cards are using kX3538j drivers.

According to this webpage, the pin-out is as follows:

1 - SPDIF out TTL level (pin 1 is at the PCI connection side)
2 - Ground
3 - SPDIF IN
4 - Ground
5 - +5V

Many thanks. I found the previous thread this AM. What I have been able to find out (I think) is that the Creative SPDIF_IO connector is not the same as mobo SPDIF_IO connectors. Also, I found another pinout for an SPDIF_IO connector Non-Creative) that is definitely wdifferent even though it is the same size c onnector.

each motherboard manufacturer has it's own specific pinouts
