So my 30th birthday is on Monday and I have rented a cinema screen for 3 hours of gaming with some friends.
I am taking my Xbox One and want to take my PC too however the cinema said I need SPDIF Audio so I have been looking for a cheap sound card to give me that.
My intention had been this one: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...rd-with-built-in-headphone-amp-sc-015-as.html however having done some reading on it people say it doesn't output 5.1 on the SPDIF connection and one of the reviews on Overclockers says:
"Great card if you don't care about decoded digital. Great for headphones. Not so good if your trying to get a digital source for your 5.1 desktop spearkers."
Which seems a bit of a waste for the cinema sound system. Can anyone else confirm or refute this?
