Problem with digital audio
Posted: Sun Apr 04, 2010 11:52 am
After maybe 10 hours of struggle, I finally managed to install working drivers for the High definition audio device of my FitPC2i.
Maybe it would be a good idea to put these drivers somewhere they can actually be found instead of posting a link in some thread in this forum.
Actually, the driver installation did not work properly. If I run the setup exetutable an error message appears and the installation closes. The only way of installing the driver is to right click and select "Update driver..." in the device manager.
Anyway... I only get analog audio through the 3.5mm connector market S/PDIF. If I open the IDT control panel there is a checkbox used for activating digital audio out, but nothing changes. If I connect a cable from the 3.5mm socket to an analog input, I get signal, but if I connect it to my DAC nothing happens. I have also checked the signal with a digital oscilloscope and cannot see that there is a digital signal available.

In the pilot batch an IDT codec is used. This is going to change to ALC662 in April-May timeframe.
What about the mentioned pilot batch? Is the S/PDIF really working in these devices?
My OS is Windows XP Pro En with SP3.
