[Solved] How to stream DTS-HD MA from a PC to a A/V reciever

Hi,

I want my Pioneer VSX-819 (which can process DTS-HD Master Audio) to work with that sound. I also have a movie with it.

My equipment is connected this way:

Software: Media Player Classic with K-Lite Codec Pack + AC3Filter via S/PDIF

Sound Card: Sound Blaster X-Fi Fat4lity Platinum connected to the A/V Reciever via Optical wire.

Graphics Card: NVidia GeForce 8800GTS 320mb (has 2 DVI outputs) connected directly to the TV with a DVI-to-HDMI wire.

So I've been told that for streaming HD-audio I need to send it through HDMI... but how? How do I get my sound card send the sound to my graphics card and then send it from DVI to HDMI?

Or what do I have to do/buy?

Thank you!

Thank you gamerk316, that's what I wanted to know.

So... which one do you recommend me, the asus or the azuntech?

How should I connect them, this way:



ir like this:




And last (perhaps stupid) question... Should I keep the Sound Blaster X-Fi with the optical for music or the ones you told me are better in all ways?

Thank you very much gamerk, really, you saved my ass

I'm finally going for the auzentech hehe

Let's see how that dts-hd sounds
