I am new in sound cards.
So I have home theaters, which support Dolby Digital 5.1.
My question is, if I buy Xonar DG, do I get Dolby Digital 5.1 through Optical output when I watch for example, movies in Dolby Digital 5.1 from computer. My receiver has an indicator showing which is active, Dolby Digital, or Pro Logic II, or DTS.
So since this sound card has no Dolby Digital Live, Pro Logic II in my receiver does surround sound for anything else.
But when movie or whatever is playing is encoded already in Dolby Digital 5.1, do I get Dolby Digital 5.1 through Xonar DG?
