I'm looking for a way to take the digital audio out from my TV or DTV or DVD/Bluray and route it through my DAC - headphone system.
The problem is that most of the TV/DTV/DVD/Bluray content is coded 5.1/surround/dolby digital and not 2 channel stereo, so either nothing or garbage comes through my DAC.
So is there an option other than a home theater receiver just to decode the multichannel down to stereo?
Also, I don't think home theater receivers output digital stereo, just analogue.
Does such an animal exist?
