Sorry folks if this has been asked about before but ..what type of sound card /cable do I Require to route 5.1 Dolby Digital / DTS sound from my PC to my Onkyo 875 Receiver. I have a number of movies / music vids on my hard drive and normally I burn them to DVD which play's them back in full 5 channel DD sound.
....But I'd also like to play them back directly from my hard drive - I have my PC already connected to my Pioneer 50" plasma and have stereo sound connected to the onboard audio output from my pc but obviously soundwise I would rather have the full monty!
....Is it as simple as connecting an optical cable from a PC sound card to my Onkyo? ......any advice appreciated
