What is the easiest way to record Dolby Digital SPDIF input from external source? I have the Blackmagic Intensity Card and I want to transfer the 6 Star Wars Episodes that I recorded on my SA8300HD from Cinemax. The quality of the transfer is pristine, I was really surprised. I can capture the HDMI output with no problem with a DVI stripper( DVIMAGIC ). The audio is where the problem is. The Intensity Card can capture only PCM sources, 2 ch or 5.1 ch. It cannot capture DD Bitstream at this time. What would be the easiest way to do it? My motherboard ( ABIT IP-35 PRO)has a SPDIF in and does lock onto the signal when connected to the cable box.

Regards,
Chris
