I tried this once and my Receiver (Kenwood KRF-X9060D) seems to work 
with it.
Unfortunately at that time the alsa driver for cmipci was broken and 
spdif in -> spdif out wasnt working, I guess I'll give it a try again.

Can you maybe explain what that bandwidth limitation could mean in real 
world? Is this enough for an AC3 stream? What about DTS (e.g. when using 
the dvd-plugin)?


Thanks again and best regards,
 Christian
