Hi all,

analog outs, and one coax RCA SPDIF out.
I want to connect this to my good old Creative inspiron 5700 5 : 1 surround
system, and be
if spdif?
means digital optic line, your answer is yes. However, you will still have to
go into your sound settings and place on 5.1, 6 or 7.1 channels for sound after
you make the connection.
alternatively, you can also use the digital coaxial line or 7 separate analog
RCA lines.

hi cornell,
It's the coaxial rca connection I want to be using.

HI Brian,
No, one you change the sound settings to whichever speaker settup you want to
use, it remains that way. I'm actually using the digital coaxial line myself
with 5.1 speaker set up running into my home theater system.

I don't know of where to go, but I use an XP Media Center computer with Jaws
and Charter cable. It all works pretty slickly.
I've heard that there may be a little less functionality with VISTA or Windows
7 Media Center computers, but can't attest to that.
If you have questions, I'll try to

Hello!
I have an .asx file here which i have no problems
The .asx file just tells the player where to get the stream from. I don't
know why GOM Player won't play it. It is like some audio files that will
play on one player but not another. I think there is a forum for GOM Player
but don't know how accessible it is. You might go to the web page and

That's a lot of valuable information. I think I might actually watch tv more

so the software recognizes your cable box or how does it work as far as
connecting up with your cable provider / hardware?

High Brett,
Why don't you give the DELL media center computers a look?
Go to:
http://www.dell.com
and see what they have their on their website.
They also have a toll free number, but I don't remember what it is at this
time.
My best regards.
John.
