Description: If I have understood right this card should be able to decode AC3/DD by itself when sent into SPDIF/IN... Well Sending AC3/DD signal to card's SPDIF/IN results in crackling noise from my 7.1 analog speakers that are connected to card. Sending PCM into SPDIF/IN works fine, but it would be nice to get AC3 (and by that way DD sounds) alive and kicking. Am I doing something wrong or is it just that emu10k1 doesn't support Audigy2ZS's hardware AC3 decoder? If so please tell me what I am doing/have understood wrong or are there any plans to get hardware AC3 decoder to work? ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rlrevell - 04-03-06 18:45 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- These devices have no hardware AC3 decoder - Creative is lying. It's implemented in software in the Windows driver. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rlrevell - 04-03-06 18:59 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hardware has no AC3 decoder. You can do it in software by piping the input to ac3dec.
