loc[a]lhost Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Hi. I've recently bought a receiver, and I would like to use a digital connection for it. However, with my Realtek ALC882, there is no volume control when Digital Out is selected. I've did some searching, and it turns out that most users don't have volume control on Digital Out. My question is, are there any sound cards that do support volume control on Digital Out? Maybe one of those M-Audio FireWire sound cards? I've also read a while ago about a hack that allowed G5's to have volume control on Digital Out, but I don't have the link anymore. If someone could point me to this hack, maybe I would be able to "port" it to Intel Macs. Any help will be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackintom Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I've always noticed that you ccouldn't pump up or down the volume if you are using SPDIF.... But I might be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delish Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Applications that has volume adjustments usually work when using optical out (like iTunes) but system volume isn't adjustable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loc[a]lhost Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 I know, but I was wondering if there are sound cards that don't have this limitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
