Agree. As I wrote in my first post, the reciever (CS8420) has a bug and
migth not alway lock on the SPDIF signal. I guess this is due to it's
low amplitude. If you increase the amplitude of the signal, it has no
trouble to lock on the signal. Since the protocole is almost simular, I
guess it's just a question of level for the chip to lock? (but it has
indeed a bug)

cheers
