Title: Problem connecting this card to amplifier via digital out
Product review: I recently bought the Creative x-Fi Xtreme Audio PCI card. I also have a Samsung XQ-HT100 Home Theater system. Been trying to connect the optical out from sound card to the optical in of the HT. here's how I tried to:1) Used a 3.5mm mini-plug to square plug TOSLINK cable to connect from the digital i/o port of the soundcard to the optical in of the HT2) In Windows, I've set the default sound card to as SPDIF output and enabled digital output only.However, I cannot hear a single sound coming from my HT. Not even stereo.I've done exhaustive research on the net but came up with nothing. Problem still exist.Additional info:Using Windows Vista UltimateI noticed that in Creative Entertainment center there is an icon for digital I/O, however its missing for my version. Same thing for DTS/DD logo. Not sure if thats some clue for my problem.Giving it 2 stars for the (lack of) ease of usage.
