I bought a Terratec 5.1 PCI recently on the premise that it was a 5.1 card with optical output. Somewhat pathetically, it's only 5.1 through the pre-outs and not through optical, where it is only even active on 2.0 mode.
Terratec say they are not to blame as they do not say that it does (but I argue neither to they say it doesn't), and Dabs aren't interested because I had to open and power up the card to find out.
So now I have a soundcard that is bloody useless.
Can anyone recommend an sound card that will output the full DD/DTS stream in 5.1 through optical that doesn't cost a fortune?
