ok so i recently upgraded from a pc to mac. yay. anyway i had the creative sound blaster sound card hooking up my 5.1 surround sound system and my xbox into that aswell. creative does not make a mac driver. so i MIDId out the surround sound but still cant get xbox sound to come from the speakers...
so, i have a macbook pro, and an xbox 360 that i want play through a surround sound system. if i cant use this sound card then what will work? also the minimalist in me would like to possibly uprade to a bluetooth surround sound system to go with my mac, possibly cutting out the need for a sound card entirely?!?! like the magicmouse or track pad, but with speakers.. any suggestions?
