Viewsat extreme AC3 decoder?

[lavaboy]

Would anyone know if it is possible to listen ( picture is fine) to the AC-3 dolby digital channels on 125W? I was wondering if one of the factory or hack files does it?

I have my extreme hooked up to an old Sony TV through an old sony VCR/DVD combo and do not have any S-pfid jacks on either.
I noticed another thread mentioned the Viewsat ultra file can decode the channels on 125W?
Also saw something about a sonic voom box to decode?

Would the newer receivers like Nfusion decode AC3? I have access to an Nfusion Solaris which I may just get for the pvr function?

Thanks

P.S. Not sure how long has RTV on 83W been around? I never pointed at it until I got a motor last week, great Channel ( even though it has commercials).

If it's not an HD Receiver, you need some type of Home Theater or Sonic Voom unit and appropriate cable to get AC3 Sound.

Thought so. Thanks.

I have one more question.
If I get a Dolby 5.1 surround sound home theater system can I plug my RED and White RCA outputs directly to the home theater box or do I need to use the SPDIF optical jack?

You need an Optical Cable.
The Viewsat just passes the signal through, it can not process it.

Lavaboy, I've had a sonic voom for quite a while and it works good. It pays to shop around for one if you can find it. At one time Ebay had them at about $20 or so. I think Amazon had it too...but you'd crap when you saw their price. Blind
