It also says "to input multichannel digital audio from the DVD player, set the digital audio output setting on the DVD player". This sounds like it can accept MC digital audio on these "jacks" as well. It seems worth a try, just take an RCA interconnect cable, hook up the RCA digital connections, and see what happens. Maybe start with the sound turned down a bit, in case some noise comes out. If things aren't compatible, hashy/white noise can be generated (I have heard this noise when trying to play a 24 bit 176.4kHz FLAC file).
