RE: Sky+ is in...

["Gareth Cook/STA/Lotus" <gcook@xxxxxxx>]

There is 1 single TOSLink port.

In the on screen menus, you can elect to have standard or Dolby Digital.
Yes my Sony amp will autodetect (in a hierarchical fashion) - but if the
DigiBox only outputs one stream or the other, it's not much good

I shall check out - waiting for the card to be upgraded on-air.

What do you mean.

1: That there are two optical outputs
2: That the single output is labelled "Standard OR Dolby
Digital".

"2" makes sense, since you can only carry one data stream at a
time.
Either you carry a PCM stream or a DD one, and rely on your processor to
auto-switch, exactly as you would with a DVD player...

I bougth a clipsal fron plate with a UHF and 2 x f-plug sockets (cause
Sky+
needs 2 cables) - but they had a twin cable (joined) and suggested it
would
not be good to put a join in - and have proceeded to drill a hole in the
wall and it now goes directly.

So - askign if Mr Huggins will accept this clipsal back.

3 things :

1. I not sure the picture is as good as my Panny digibox (using RGB)
2. The old Sky digibox remote wont talk to the new box (damn!)
3. The optical output says standard OR Dolby Dig - maybe you can only
have
one or the other ? Daft...
