hi accs_centre, what movie software are you using? (in the screenshot) TotalTheater that comes with your soundcard? I know PowerDVD 7.3 Ultra plays both BD/HD DVD. but the info display looks different lah in your screenshot.

Question.......

due to my super low budget, plan to get a very cheap mobo. Board got no back optical output. But, if the  onboard/internal i/o has spdif output, how do i convert it to coaxial/optical?

been searching in the forum but could find the fact that i'm looking for.

I know there is a bracket, but where can i get it.

spdif = optical toslink - check your board - should be the same.

The physical connectors were switched from XLR (commercial and professional audio equipment) to either RCA jacks (with electrical coaxial cable) or TOSLINK (optical fiber; also known as EIAJ Optical).

That's a very organised mess !
Yeah, during pre-HDMI days, I was actually looking at Onkyo's HTIBs. They were very well recommended but couldn't find them anywhere here.  sad.gif
