S/PDIF 5.1 output

[ZERO_ninja]

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a PCI sound card that'll output 5.1 through S/PDIF, I don't know how to tell this before buying though and many 5.1 sound cards downmix to stereo when outputing through S/PDIF.

Any recomendations?

Any soundcard with Dolby Digital Live support will work; just make sure you have something at the other end that can decode a Dolby signal [Receiver, etc].
