Hi! does anyone knows how to play DVDs with an audigy card, using the digital output in the front, to output 5.1 channels to a external decoder?
I tried emu10k1 driver from creative labs, also i tested alsa 9.6, using this line: mplayer -ac hwac3 -ao alsa9 dvd://1 and mplayer -ac hwac3 -ao alsa9 -channels 6 dvd://1 in both cases i get: Checking audio filter chain for 48000Hz/2ch/16bit -> 48000Hz/2ch/8bit... AF_pre: af format: 2 bps, 2 ch, 48000 hz, big endian AC3 AF_pre: 48000Hz 2ch AC3 alsa-init: requested format: 48000 Hz, 2 channels, AC3 alsa-init: soundcard set to iec958:AES0=0x2,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2 ALSA lib pcm.c:1787:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Invalid type for PCM iec958:AES0=0x2,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2 definition (id: iec958, value: cards.pcm.iec958) alsa-init: playback open error: Invalid argument Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.

Audio: no sound Do you know what can be the problem? can you tell me that if another sound card can output digital spdif for 5.1 audio?
