I'll be putting this through an Onkyo 7.1 system and if it doesn't support surround sound it's useless to me. I read in a couple other threads that it wasn't really supported so I need to be sure first if there are any experts here who can verify this...?I still did not get a chance to open mine, but I read that it supports surround over HDMI. Others can confirm.
no idea where you read that, since it's never been the case. The ChromeBox supports full 7.1 HD audio bitstreaming via HDMI under Linux. Please check the ChromeBox wiki page (linked in my sig), it has all the info you need (and if it doesn't, let me know so I can update it)
