D420 SPDIF Passthrough

Hi all,

 

I've tried for the last hour and a half looking through search results here and on google (not counting wasting time installing drivers that don't work) so I'm not too optimistic at this point. Basically, I have SPDIF working fine for PCM, but I can't get anything to pass data straight through the SPDIF port on my Inspiron D420's port replicator.

I'm using Windows XP, and I've tried using different kernel streaming outputs in Winamp and Foobar2000, none of which work. I've also tried the passthrough option on AC3filter, which says "SPDIF passthrough not supported". 

 

Has anyone got the SPDIF passthrough to work with the STAC9200 chip?

Thanks,
Bill

I have the same question. I would love to output SPDIF through the D/Port.

Currently have Ubunu 10.04 installed.

I was able to generate the following from the System testing application:

Node 0x08 [Pin Complex] wcaps 0x430681: Stereo Digital
Pincap 0x00010024: IN EAPD Detect
EAPD 0x0:
Pin Default 0x40c003fa: [N/A] SPDIF In at Ext N/A
Conn = Unknown, Color = Unknown
DefAssociation = 0xf, Sequence = 0xa
Misc = NO_PRESENCE
Pin-ctls: 0x00:
Unsolicited: tag=00, enabled=0
Power: setting=D0, actual=D0
Delay: 3 samples
Node 0x09 [Pin Complex] wcaps 0x400301: Stereo Digital
Pincap 0x00000010: OUT
Pin Default 0x0144131f: [Jack] SPDIF Out at Ext Rear
Conn = RCA, Color = Black
DefAssociation = 0x1, Sequence = 0xf
Misc = NO_PRESENCE
Pin-ctls: 0x40: OUT
Connection: 2
0x05* 0x0a
Node 0x0a [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x30090d: Stereo Amp-Out R/L
Amp-Out caps: ofs=0x00, nsteps=0x0f, stepsize=0x05, mute=1
Amp-Out vals: [0x80 0x80]
Connection: 1
0x0c
Node 0x0b [Audio Selector] wcaps 0x300105: Stereo Amp-Out
Amp-Out caps: N/A
Amp-Out vals: [0x1f 0x1f]
Connection: 1
0x07

Now I'm not a Linux expert by *any* stretch. Can anyone decipher this?
