I've looked at the reviews and Creative's site info and am unclear on whether the X-Fi can do Dolby Digital Live. I'm looking at purely connecting the digital out to a Dolby Digital/DTS Receiver or to the Logtiech 5500s digital input. Will the X-FI convert it's EAX effects into a Dolby Digital stream for output or will it only do EAX and it's mulit-channel for the analog outs on the card itself.
From my reading, the back of the card has a SPDIF jack but can only be selected to input or output? Is this correct? Am I correct in saying that in order to have an digital input and output separately, then I will need an X-Fi with the breakout box?
