DD/DTS passthrough

Jani- · Nov 25, 2010, 07:57 PM

Okay, I got Audigy 2 Zs card and I don't get how do I pass DD or DTS to an external decoder using the digital output in the back panel of the card. What to tick and what to wire and where? Atm I'm using ProFX components, because I read they eat less resources. The AC3 decode popup keeps appearing no matter what. OS: Win7 64-bit.

AC3-Passthru is broken since version 3543.
Yau have to use version 3542, but I'm not sure if it'll work under Win7.

Ah, no wonder I didn't get it to work. Thanks!

3551 should fix AC-3 passthrough
AC-3 decoding should also work fine now on x64 versions of Windows

DTS passthrough is not possible, because cards operate at 48kHz mode internally, and DTS requires 44.1kHz mode (unresampled)

I have DTS-passthrough working just fine on Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro.
Don't know how it's possible, but receiver shows "DTS" on it's display when I open movies with DTS track.

audio is transmitted via p17v hardware component, it bypasses 10k1/10k2 chip
we currently do not support p17v...
