I'm not fully sure on that, according to manual and all it's supposed to give either analog or digital 6 channel through the digital output. Then, additionally, according to the onsite help, one can use digital decoding in 3 ways: hardware in the speaker decoder (so yeah, that i can do with the DTT3500), hardware on the live! player 5.1, or using software for it.

But damn i don't really get it. I downloaded those drivers you suggested though, going to give them a go and see what happens!
Thanks already.

Btw here's a link to the manual for the soundcard, see for yourself and let me know what you make of it?!

that's supposed to be manual to live player 5.1

Update

Just installed those Kx drivers, and am running some mp3 now... altho sucks pretty bad lol. I ran speaker test, in current setup i get sound from all but the center speakers..... the mp3 suxx but me guesses it ain't 5.1 anyway, it's creating some signal from the other channels? (It cracks n all)

actually all speakers r cracking :S
