Greetings,
I generally see SPDIF conectors as shown here
called what? coaxial inputs? optical cable? I am not sure, what I know is the connector type.
NOW, I was looking to buy the Gibabyte GA-7VRXP which has listed:
-Audio (1 x Line-in / 1 x Line-out / 1 x Mic) connector
on its website.
In its user manual (Pg 67) it has written
-"SPDIF introducion- the spdif output is capable of providing digital signal to AC3 decoder which can support up to 5.1 speakers......click 'digital' iten, Line Out will be reconfigured to SPDIF out."
Is this possible fellows? The 1/8" jack or whatever a typical line out is, acting as digital 5.1 sound out? I don't know much about it, but it doesn't make sense to me.
Anybody explain this?
