does this output PCM digital signal

there is nothing about PCM audio, in the DTV manual. the receiver does output a digital audio output using an rca type connector as well as a true optical digital output.

It will only handle PCM stereo, which could include Dolby Surround or Dolby ProLogic Surround. Feeding it a Dolby Digital or DTS surround signal may result in horribly loud digital noise. Source components can usually be configured for PCM output only, for this reason.

Assume you're asking about playing videos for a home theatre system. If so, the original PCM audio will be transmitted via the HDMI output to your receiver/decoder. So if the video contains encoded multi channel audio (e.g. 5.1/7.1 Dolby, DTS, etc.) then your receiver will decode it to the correct analog (speaker) outputs, assuming it contains the appropriate (Dolby, DTS, etc.) decoders.This will work regardless of the operating system you install on the PC (Windows, Linux, OsX) as long as the video player permits audio PCM pass thru, which I believe most do.

the PC I'm using has DVI and HDMI outputs but, I only used DVI. It still is a digital signal. I will have to try HDMI out with a converter. I also used mini display port out of a macbook pro both vga and DVI.

Your playing device must be able to convert 5.1 to a PCM digital output.This thing only converts PCM digital to R/L analog outputs.On the other hand, if you have an old ANALOG tv with YbPbP inputs, it will not send an analogue signal as advertised.

No. Optical supports a maximum PCM bitrate of 24/96 and no DSD. http://www.teac.com/product/ud-501/specifications/

Yes. Make sure your receiver or TV is capable of it. I am using Pioneer Elite VSX-70 receiver and it is decoding DTS 7.1 and Dolby TrueHD. If you think your TV or receiver does not support these signal, you can downstream it to PCM (uncompressed) on audio settings.

"The S/PDIF IN signal only passes through to the S/PDIF OUT" according to the manual. It is a USB sound card for audio out of a computer. Not TV.

No, this transmits digital data while your 2.1 system most likely receives an analog signal.

There is a auxiliary input/output for anything you want, I don't know if it work's for your application. I am pleased with it so far

First, ensure that your external audio system is set up to receive a digital audio signal. Then, you may want to try to adjust the SPDIF output type on the TV. You can toggle between Dolby Digital and PCM audio by navigating to MENU/SOUND/SPDIF TYPE.

Yes, it will work, but you will need to configure the audio output to PCM first. The output is stereo.

It turns an analog signal into a digital signal. I am able to plug an old VCR into the HDMI input on my LCD television.

Hi Tom,I purchased a Panasonic BD80. They provide specific instructions and connected it to Onkyo for analog audio 5.1ch. There is a setup screen to select 5.1ch and I was sure to select multichannel PCM. I used the Onkyo DVD multichannel button on the remote started playback. It did display "multichannel" but not PCM. It still sounds like stereo to me and have no idea what I might might have done wrong. Any way thank for your help.Dennis

I believe this device is only intended to convert output to analog stereo output so that the audio can be delivered to 2 channel systems. The only thing that I have seen on the consumer market that would take 2 channel analog input to digital PCM has been some computer sound cards from Creative Labs, but I don't think they make them anymore.

Yes. By definition, the output of a DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) is an analog signal. The output of USB is a digital signal, so it has not been through the DAC.

I would like. To understand the question in more further detail what the unit does is make a digital signal to analog. If you don't have a digital receiver hope that answers your question. If it doesn't, please trying reworded so I understand it a little better rich
