[QUOTE="erin_day, post: 194702"] [b]Just purchased an Intel mini and Digital out not looking good[/b] OK, I'm a switcher. Just got my Mac Mini for a home theatre system. I've been looking at them for a while but what made the sale now was the Digital Out. I got a Duo Core Intel Mac Mini and the TOSLink Digital Optical cable. Plugged it into the Optical-In on my Yamaha Home Theatre Setup. Watching Star Wars Episode III best I seem to be getting is Prologic II through the Yamaha. No Digital, 5.1, definitely not DTS. I was expecting 5.1. I haven't given up yet but there doesn't seem to be much to configure on the Mac side. I don't think it's the Yamaha as everything else works. My DVD player was plugged in optically before the MAC and it had perfect DTS coming out. Thoughts anyone? [/QUOTE]
