HI there guys, Ive completed another build, this time using an Asus M4A 785-M Mobo. Both audio and vido are both running through hdmi to a Sony 42" LCD.
But now Im thinking about using SPDIF for audio, to use on a Sony box home theater. This will be my first time using SPDIF. My motherboard should support it, and i'll have to see if the receiver has a SPDIF input, but aside form that what else is there to consider?
Most media that's being played on this htpc are divx,mp3's,some H.264 files. Will I have issues playing certain media? or would it be easier just to stick to 3.5mm jack to rca composite cable.
